When Russell Westbrook answered a question about Kevin Durant last month, he made sure to say, "Any time anybody asks me another question (about Durant), I'm not going to answer." But sometimes the media just can't help themselves.
With the juicy Thunder vs. Warriors matchup Thursday night, the obvious storyline is how Durant left Oklahoma City to create a super team at Golden State. Then there's the obvious fractured relationship, which Durant candidly spoke about recently.

When Westbrook was asked about those comments Wednesday night after a win over the Clippers, he made it clear that his message from October stands.
"I told you guys I'm not answering any more Kevin questions, so if you want to talk about basketball I'm more than welcome to be able to talk about that," Westbrook said.
Westbrook was respectful with his first comments, but when a reporter asked another question immediately after, that's when he sharply responded, "What did I just say?"

So a note for anyone else planning to ask Westbrook about Durant: Don't.
