There aren't many athletes like Russell Westbrook, so it makes sense that his preparation is a little unconventional.
When quizzed about why he doesn't watch game film, the Oklahoma City Thunder point guard listed a few things he'd rather be doing.
"I don't worry about other people," Westbrook told reporters. "My job is to worry about what I'm able to do and hopefully they can stop that. Usually I just sit out and chill, relax, I play poker on my phone, play spades on my phone, listen to music. That's about it. I don't really pay too much attention to the game. Personnel-wise I'm able to pick up things very quickly throughout the game and play."
Westbrook is averaging 32 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 9.9 assists through 11 games. This not-watching-video trick seems to be working just fine.
