Russell Westbrook absolutely believes that Lakers coach Darvin Ham\u2019s decision to bring him off the bench in L.A.\u2019s preseason finale could have caused the hamstring strain he suffered that night.<\/p>\n

Per ESPN<\/a>, \u201cI\u2019ve been doing the same thing for 14 years straight,\u201d Westbrook said following the Lakers\u2019 [123-109 loss] to the [Golden State Warriors]in their regular-season opener Tuesday night. \u201cHonestly, I didn\u2019t even know what to do pregame. Being honest, I was trying to figure out how to stay warm and loose. \u2026 That\u2019s something I just wasn\u2019t accustomed to.\u201d
