Kevin Durant went off in his first NBA Finals game since 2012 on Thursday night posting a line of 38-8-8 (with zero turnovers) as the Warriors cruised to a blowout victory over the Cavs in Game 1.
The last time KD was in the Finals, it was alongside former teammate Russell Westbrook, who must’ve had a hard time watching Durant dominate while sitting at home after being eliminated in the first round.
What a feeling for Kevin Durant. Russell Westbrook had to watch HIM nearly have a triple double in Game 1 of the NBA Final.

Or, maybe he didn’t. According to Westbrook’s Snapchat, the MVP candidate elected to watch a movie, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, instead of the game…or at least that’s what he wanted us to think. He did seem to be enjoying himself as he sang along.

With Westbrook’s history of trolling Durant since he left for the Warriors, him posting a video to show everyone he’s not watching isn’t all that surprising. What is a bit surprising, however, is his choice of film. Sister Act 2 was roundly panned by critics, and has a paltry seven percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
