I know. I scoured KZbin for Russ interviews, and there's literally nothing but this.

[@nedaari1]

This woman seems so wholesome, kind, gentle, and nurturing. Russell may sometimes miss on the court, but this dude not miss in choosing his wife.

[@ethiopianmusicoldies599]

His court abilities made him a multimillionaire, so he must have done something right there as well, like bein an MVP etc…

This is what every man wants. This is the strong black woman. A woman that supports her marriage and family. Then still finds the time for her own life but her priorities are in line. Shes firm yet calm. Beautiful union

Facts...

[@Musso8771]

I totally get it, cuz I think White people should be with other strong White people, and as White people they should want that. So again, I can totally relate.

[@bw3241]

Why does it gotta be a strong “black” woman?

[@AlkebulanJahmiah]

Strong black woman? What does that mean?

[@originaleverythingelseisca5977]

I hate the term strong. Can we just be black women, and be able to be feminine, and sometimes weak. Other then that I love ur comment

[@Just6lake]

Love this! Russ is a good dude, seems quiet and introverted. Alot to learn from this conversation 🤞🏽

[@DaTruthHurtzzzz]

right for such a ferocious guy he seems shy as hell on an interview.

[@kronicclaps3579]

@@DaTruthHurtzzzzwhen it’s someone new, he doesn’t really open up and seems like an a hole but if ur kind and Genuine to him he’s such a nice guy. I’ve heard so many stories about Russ where if u come up to him when he’s busy he doesn’t like that. But there was one time when he was eating in a restaurant with his wife in okc and no one bothered him so he went up to everyone after and talked and took pics.

In this forum he is extremely likable……but his on court persona and the way he acts as a victim makes him annoying (won’t say unlikable).

[@ogsan1296]

This is the Westbrook who people didnt know and his off-court personality. I love him and his wife having a sit down. She is the type of woman who most men would be afraid of. She is a real one. They will be together for a long time. Russ you got a dime!!!!

[@Telly26]

When I worked a preseason game for the Timberwolves, at the end of half time, OKC was leaving the visitor’s locker room and headed to the court. I was in the tunnel near the court. Russ, who was and still is one of my favorite players walked past me. Now, there was a policy for the Timberwolves that we, employees, are not to talk to the players even if they initiate it. However, I was so star struck and the words, “yo, what up Russ,” just slipped out of my mouth. I believe Russ knew it was genuine. Russell turned back, smiled, gave me the head nod, and said, “what’s happening baby!?” I had a lot of fun memories but that’s my favorite when I’m worked for the Wolves. Go Russell! I hope you get your ring this year with the Clippers. You already have the most important one with Nina! ❤

[@ToTheTopwithCarlosNavarro]

Love this story- it’s the little moments that last a lifetime. You are right about that ring!

[@LaCream973]

Now i see why he doesn't care about the media if u got this woman

Yh same bro Westbrook for life

[@jdfodio]

This **unrandomly** showed up recommended for me. They are such a breath of fresh air! I like their dynamic. (They look like siblings.) Thanks for sharing! May God continue to bless you, your marriage, your children, your ministries (incl. this podcast) and so much more! In Jesus' name. @14:31 - This "difference" in "versions" of intimacy (i.e., love languages) is exactly what Laterras R. Whitfield of Dear Future Wifey said broke up his marriage in his recent podcast with Hardly Initiated. It's commendable that you two know how to successfully navigate this difference. This just confirms that someone with physical touch as their love language doesn't always have to get that need fulfilled by sex because it includes all kinds of touch.

[@zappa3837]

"Whatever's better for the kids, that's what we do." God bless you two! And Russ is the ultimate athlete role model.

[@snagz1825]

I love this man so much, my hero , Russell Westbrook you were my childhood. The impact you’ve had on my life is just crazy man thank u so much really hoping we can go far this year and win a chip!

Pre-game sex, Russ won't have that same energy and intensity on the court LOL

[@dana.j9062]

She's an amazing intelligent and well mannered level headed partner!! Westbrook is a lucky Man.

[@amandaquest105]

She is amazing. It shows that she really runs that household (with her husband's support), and she is so firm yet balanced, calm, and composed. He surprised me too, and I was impressed by the humble way in which he let his wife lead and really tried to add value to the conversation. You can tell that he really respects, admires and relies on his wife--as it should be. I really enjoyed listening to this conversation.

[@PTO_Finesse]

Russ a true Scorpio, we love quiet women…. Something about a quiet confidence that makes you intrigued, creates an allure.

[@AbdJiA]

Man snatched & wifed her up before negative external influence overshadows her core traditional values lol. What a beautiful couple! Cheers to another 16 years of learning about yourselves and growing together. The lot of women outchea are easily influenced by what they see on these junk apps, as much as some of we men want to get married, we're slowly but steadily deleting those thoughts, our expectations are low, & even if we find a 'Nina', there'd be prenups because people change like Ayisha curry, not saying she's bad, but the signs are already emerging😅

[@jacobmiller9345]

Any real NBA fan recognizes Russ for the incredible/inspirational athlete he is. One of my all-time favorite NBA players

[@marcallen1621]

I like Nina's questions, and I like what Russ said about there not being one perfect way to parent. My wife and I have learned that in raising three awesome, but completely different young boys. Also, their respect for each other is clear. Even where they disagree

[@jonward6763]

They both chose well in being with one another. Excellent Post, you two. Continued Blessings 🙏🏾

[@omarpatterson5045]

Awesome women, wife and mother with a calm voice thinking before she speaks to make the message reach the mass properly. You could tell they both knew what they needed and not what they wanted from each other. The nuclear family we are fighting for Let's Go Nina! Now you Know the dark secrets of wicked hateful humans in the media world, good dude like Russ a total man packaged to serve his destiny in benefit of his peers and family!

Sir you are great and keep killing it sir. Thank you Nina for this, this is a side of Mr Russ we hardly see or the MEDIA does not let us see often. He is a great basketballer, my MVP anyday, great father and super HUSBAND.

[@jeskarenee1987]

I love the Westbrook’s. Russ will always be my fav player hands down. I was so excited to listen to this podcast because he has probably only done two his whole career. This is the stuff that the media never shows about him that he is a good husband & father. Yes he’s a beast on the court but he’s a cool dude off the court.

[@tellemhowyoufeelpod]

This was a great conversation and vibe. Very inspirational and educational.

[@MarioBasketballWorkouts]

I love this. Not just because of how it was done, and I love family. It shows Westbrook as the human he is for people who thought otherwise and it helps people who for whatever reason can't separate the man from the athlete

Loved the conversation, this is a beautiful couple! Blessings to you both. I have a different perspective of Russell now. He is a great DUDE as BBall players described.

It’s nice to see that a great player has an equally great wife and a seemingly healthy respectful relationship! 😁👏👏👏

[@rosepitt]

I love Russ self-confidence and how he handles the media when playing. However, this was a blessing to see the softer side of Russ; my take away from listening is you two have become one in this covenant of marriage. You don't see it to often but when you do it's beautiful to behold.
