Russell Westbrook sprinkled some extra spice on an already-heated game Wednesday night after the Houston Rockets’ 102-93 win over the Los Angeles Clippers, insulting Clippers guard Patrick Beverley’s defensive play.
“Pat Bev trick y’all, man,” Westbrook said. “He don’t guard nobody, man. He just running around doing nothing.” Westbrook looked to James Harden’s 47-point performance in the win as proof.
The game also saw the Rockets’ Austin Rivers egg on the ejection of his dad, Clippers head coach Doc Rivers.
Westbrook had 17 points on the night, and four fouls in the first quarter alone.
