Russell Westbrook Interview with Walid Ibrahim
Bleacherreport.com

This week we have Walid “Wale” Ibrahim. I met him my sophomore year at Cazenovia College where we bonded over 2k and hooping almost every weekend. Hands down one of the nicest and talented people I met at caz as well as tall. You can catch him now giving motivational speeches and spitting fire freestyles on his social medias.

Q: Who are you?

1. My name is Walid Ibrahim and I am 22 years old. You can find me on Twitter/IG:@8ighth__, and Facebook:Walid Wale

Q:How did you find out about Russell Westbrook?

2. I Found out about Russell Westbrook while I became a Kevin Durant fan right before they transitioned to the Thunder.

Q:First reaction when you saw him play?

Amazon.com

3. First reaction: never seen anything like him, ever. Especially at that height. The way he would try to break the rim with every dunk.

Q:Favorite game by the Brodie?

4. Favorite Russ Game: EASILY when he hit a fucking BUZZER BEATER over the Denver Nuggets to win the game while MAKING HISTORY with averaging a triple double in the SAME GAME. Legendary.

Q:Player's Biggest Weakness?

5. He's his own biggest weakness. He doesn't know how to turn off the engine sometimes

Q:Player's Biggest Strength?

6. His leadership and passing ability is his biggest strength. Doesn't matter who he's facing, who's had a bad day, he STILL goes 150 percent every day and fears nothing.

Q:Keep,Trade, and Let Walk away: Russ,KD,Harden

Slamonline.com

7. Keep Russ, Trade KD, walk away from Harden. Only because Westbrook was the franchise. Nobody else could've established them and kept them together like he did. KD doesn't have the leadership maturity Russ has. James Harden does, but his system wouldn't have applied to OKC, so that's that(still one of the greatest to ever play)

Q:Reaction to him being traded?

8. I was a little hurt, but every team rebuilds after being stagnant. Russ will forever be OKC. But it had to be done. They needed to reset.

Q:Predictions for this season?

9. Russ and James will prove to be a nasty combination. I give it three months. It's gonna be a lot to handle for people

Q:Predictions for the rest of his career?

10. I think Russ will at least hit one more WCF if not a NBA finals. He has two more years to snag a ring. After that, it's not happening. Easy future hall of famer.

Thank you to Walid for his time to answer these questions. I tune in every Wednesday for his fire freestyles for #WaWednesdays and you should too! Also check out his motivational videos also!!! He will also be back for a Kevin Durant Interview later on.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
