Russell Westbrook had some words for Damian Lillard and the rest of the Portland Trail Blazers during OKC's 123-114 victory on Tuesday night. Those words: "I been busting that ass for years."
As seen in the video clips from last night's game, Westbrook and Dame exchanged words while the latter was at the free throw line late in the fourth, following a thunderous dunk from Russ.
Westbrook, who finished with 29 points, 14 assists and 10 rebounds, had also caught Lillard slipping with a crossover earlier in the game, which surely fuelled his trash talk as the Thunder secured the W.
Lillard poured in 34 points of his own to go along with eight assists and five boards in the loss. He also took to instagram after Portland's 123-114 loss with a simple message of his own: "Warfare."
The two teams will meet again on February 11. As a result of last night's game, OKC is currently sitting in third place at 29-18, while the Blazers (29-20) are in fourth.
