Before Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday, Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said that he does not consider Russell Westbrook a superstar. Westbrook then started the game as if he was trying to prove a point.
In less than 10 minutes, Westbrook scored 13 points on 5-for-8 shooting, plus two rebounds and an assist with no turnovers. He did so with typical Westbrookian rage, attacking the basket as aggressively as possible. The best part was this dunk on a sideline out of bounds play:
Westbrook's dunks are great because you can always hear him yelling, even over the top of a crazy playoff crowd. He's good when it comes to the dismounts, too -- just look at him pose at the end.
At the end of the first quarter, the Thunder lead the Mavericks 35-24. Superstar or not, Westbrook appears on his way to sending Dallas home for the summer.
