Russell Westbrook crafting 1 of NBA’s greatest seasons
ATLANTA — Russell Westbrook floated off the man he was covering, anticipated the pass into the lane and slipped back to pick it off.
Then he sped off the other way, with only a single defender able to get back and Victor Oladipo serving as wingman. At about the 3-point line, Westbrook whipped a bounce pass toward his teammate, who took it from there for a layup.
With that, Westbrook earned his 10th assist and another triple-double.
