Okay, so: We all knew the triple-double was inevitable. Russell Westbrook had four of them in a row heading into last night’s matchup with Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Pelicans. He’s an insane athlete, one of the most driven guys in the league, a competitive headcase driven solely by victory. Sure enough, it came; 28 points, 17 rebounds, and 12 assists in 38 minutes. And it was matched with a victory, which matters more.
