Russell Westbrook on Marcus Smart's play: 'I do this. Don't get it twisted'
Following the Oklahoma City Thunder's 100-85 loss to the Boston Celtics on Sunday, Russell Westbrook was asked about the performance of Celtics second-year point guard Marcus Smart.
Smart finished 26 points (9-of-14 shooting) to go along with eight rebounds and three assists. Westbrook, meanwhile, had 27 points on just 5-for-20 shooting for the Thunder.
Westbrook was asked by Berry Tramel of The Daily Oklahoman -- who Westbrook has had issues with in the past -- if there was anything special about the way Smart played, and he responded in typical Westbrook fashion (no pun intended):

"Uh, no," Westbrook said. "I don’t agree with you, but no. He had a good game. Eighty-two games. I do this. Don’t get it twisted. Don't get it twisted. He had a good game. We've got another game tomorrow. We'll see him again."
