Patrick Beverley Discusses Double Technical, Russell Westbrook Has No Comment

Russell Westbrook wasn't talking about his in-game altercation with Patrick Beverley during his postgame meeting with reporters.

"I have no comment on it. I just know that we won," Westbrook told reporters.

Police had to be brought onto the floor to keep Westbrook and Beverley separated following the latter's foul on a loose ball in the fourth quarter of the Thunder's 128-110 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. The play was reminiscent of Beverley diving into Westbrook's knee on a loose ball in 2013, causing a torn meniscus.

Earlier in the game, Westbrook had blown by Beverley and taunted him with a rock-a-bye motion.

"You got little kids, you gotta put them to sleep. When you got little kids on you, that's what happens," Westbrook told reporters.

Beverley said he was simply going for a loose ball before he and Westbrook started jawing at each other.

"Somebody walked to our bench doing all that cappin' stuff. I don't know what that is," Beverley said.

Westbrook and Beverley pretty clearly do not like each other and are the types of players who go all out all the time. Their competitive natures make them an interesting matchup but also make them more likely to have these types of altercations.

Don't be surprised if Thunder fans allow the boos to rain down upon Beverley when the Clippers come to Oklahoma City in December.
