OKLAHOMA CITY -- Russell Westbrook stood at midcourt, looking over in the direction of the Golden State Warriors bench. He had the kind of face where he was trying to make it look as though he wasn't looking at anything in particular, but he definitely had a reason for it.

With his hoodie wrapped tight around his head, Kevin Durant popped up and walked into Westbrook's field of view. Westbrook said something, sort of to nobody but certainly loud enough for Durant to hear. With the Oklahoma City Thunder up 23 midway through Wednesday's fourth quarter and Durant on the bench, Westbrook was "wondering" why Durant wasn't in the game.
