Rajon Rondo Reveals What His Brother Said to Russell Westrbook That Set Him Off

Rajon Rondo brother got into it a bit last night with Houston Rocket’s guard Russell Westbrook. This cause a bit of a stir in the game and was easily noticeable from fans across the country. The Los Angeles Lakers were able to pick up the game 5 victory and move onto the Western Conference Finals for the first time in years. This is a huge win for the entire Lakers organization.

But there was a lot of stuff that happened other than the Lakers victories. We recently wrote a story on what LeBron James and Austin Rivers did in the game. After Rivers fouled LeBron James, he tapped the ball in his direction and hit him in the head. LeBron reacted but quickly walked away before overreacting.

Then, later on in the 4th quarter, Rajon Rondo’s brother got into it with Russell Westbrook. He said something that clearly got under Westbrook’s skin. This obviously is easy to do but it was interesting to see.

Apparently, Rondo’s brother talked trash to Russell Westbrook from along the sideline, and Westbrook came back at him hard. The NBA has a lot of trash talk all the time. It is almost impossible to police what is said but when it comes from a non player, they do have more to say.

He said something about Westbrook’s recent loss in the playoffs that apparently set off the the former NBA MVP and future Hall of Famer.

Even in his 12th season, Westbrook is still one of the best point guards in the entire NBA. He is also one of the most athletic guys in the NBA and possibly of all time.

Now that the Lakers have one game 5 and their 4th straight, they once again sent Westbrook home without getting any further in the Playoffs.

The Lakers will either take on the Los Angeles Clippers or the Denver Nuggets. This should be a great series either way. Hopefully the Lakers can get the the NBA Finals for the first time in years.
