Russell Westbrook responded to the media regarding the criticism he has been receiving, saying “For me, I look at it in a positive way. And I look at it like this: since I’ve been in the league, every arena, fans, whoever, the jokes.. whatever it is that it may be I take it as a compliment.
Because if I wasn’t out here and I hadn’t done anything in this game, they wouldn’t even pay no mind to me. And I’ll continue to keep my head up and keep my “why not?” mindset and keep using this game to be able to do other things. Simple as that.”
