VIDEO: Westbrook throws serious shade at former teammate Jackson
Reggie Jackson's three-plus seasons with Oklahoma City Thunder did not end well.
Nine months after changing zip codes, the Detroit Pistons point guard faced his former team and ex-running mates for the first time since being traded last February.
After his Pistons fell to the Thunder 103-87 on Friday, Russell Westbrook fielded Jackson-centric questions from reporters.
Westbrook's responses were nothing short of ice cold.

Here, the Thunder's fearless leader displays a curious case of selective amnesia, as he appears to have conveniently forgotten who Jackson is.
Prior to the clash of the former backcourt buddies, Jackson provided a considerably more diplomatic offering to the media.

In the wake of his trade from the Thunder, Jackson made it known that he viewed himself as the "scapegoat" for the team's shortcomings last season.
Although, Kevin Durant saw things differently.
