Westbrook: ‘It’s not me against the world’

Russell Westbrook wasn’t trying to silence his critics.

But even when he did, he supplied them more ammunition.

Such is life for the Oklahoma City Thunder’s All-Star point guard.

But Westbrook insisted he wasn’t out to prove a point.

“Let me get this straight,” Westbrook said. “What you guys say doesn’t make me happy, make me sad, doesn’t do anything. It’s all about my team and us winning a game. I don’t have a personal challenge against you guys, and it’s not me against the world. It’s not the world against me. It’s me and my teammates trying to win.”
