Westbrook: Don’t care what nobody else thinks about my game. I’ll keep busting everybody’s ass

Ja Morant praised Russell Westbrook following Memphis Grizzlies’ loss against the Houston Rockets.

Per ESPN, “I still feel like he’s highly disrespected,” Morant told ESPN on Wednesday before playing against Westbrook for the first time. “People take his play for granted. I mean, he averaged a triple-double for the last three or four years, and I’m pretty sure they see what he’s doing this year, but it’s still the same thing. I just love that he still just goes out and plays and handles his business and doesn’t worry about it.”

Westbrook, the 2016-17 MVP and a nine-time All-Star, didn’t disagree with Morant’s opinion. Westbrook dismissed the matter as any sort of concern.

“I don’t really care what nobody else thinks about my game,” Westbrook said. “I appreciate guys like [Morant] and other guys, but as long as I’m OK and satisfied with what I bring to the table, I’m going to keep busting everybody’s ass.”
