Russell Westbrook Needed Only 21 Minutes To Get A Triple-Double
Yes, it was against what is essentially a D-League team, but Russell Westbrook's 21-minute bludgeoning of the 76ers is worth being excited about. 13 points, 14 assists, and 10 rebounds in 21 minutes isn't something that just happens to a guy coming off his second knee surgery of the year. 13 points...

Kevin Durant Is Inevitable
The Thunder played a basketball game last night, and that means that Kevin Durant did something amazing.

Kevin Durant Tweets Smoking Selfie, Deletes It, Says He Was Hacked
This isn't scandalous as much as it is weird. Kevin Durant tweeted a photo of himself smoking—from what seems to be a hookah—before quickly deleting it and claiming his phone was hacked.
