VIDEO: Westbrook owns Harkless with cruel rejection

Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star Russell Westbrook played possum with Maurice Harkless on Monday night at Chesapeake Energy Arena, and it worked to perfection.

Harkless managed to spin past Westbrook in the post, but his efforts were rendered futile when the 6-foot-3 guard rose up to swat away his layup attempt in brutal fashion.

If you ask Westbrook, though, it's probably how he drew that play up in his mind.
