Russell Westbrook continued his assault on the NBA last night, posting his third straight triple double to the tune of 40 points, 11 assists and 13 rebounds. Westbrook jacked up 32 shots, hitting 14 of them in OKC’s 115-112 loss to the Blazers.
One other interesting statistic from his performance last night: one head dent. Look at this:

How did this happen? Andre Roberson crushed Russell in the side of his head with a knee in the final seconds of the game. Tough way to lose a game.

Westbrook actually stayed in the game for the last 1.4 seconds, despite the clear dent in his head. The guy is a god damn psycho.
