A video that went viral had the Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James dabbing and saluting all LA Clippers starters except for one, yes, you guessed it, Russell Westbrook. Westbrook was far away, outside of the court, almost hiding, so James didn't get close to him, showing both stars that they didn't care for each other anymore.

Now another video has surfaced, this time is when the game was in full motion and LeBron James was getting frustrated with his teammates not being able to guard their former point guard Russell Westbrook.

LeBron James led the way with a virtuoso performance, and he was clearly amped up for this matchup. But with his teammates failing to guard Russ, the leaked audio shows his frustration: "No, we're better than that! You just take the f*ck off, you gotta guard him."

Then, just two minutes after this play, LeBron James took the matter into his own hands as the Lakers star went ahead and blocked Russ while saying: "Give me that sh*t." This shows James' competitive nature and how his relationship with Russ was completely broken in the locker room.

The Russell Westbrook disaster with the LA Lakers

The fact that Westbrook played a season and a half with James and crew added some extra spice to this matchup. When the Lakers traded for the former University of California, Los Angeles standout, many thought they would be legitimate championship contenders. Instead, the team had one of their worst tournaments, and last season had a historic low campaign start.
