Westbrook scores 30 in Game 3 loss to Mavs
Russell Westbrook - G - Oklahoma City Thunder
May 22, 2011 - 12:20 AM ET

Russell Westbrook attempted to put his controversial benching behind him, hitting 8-of-20 shots and scoring 30 points in a bad loss to the Mavericks on Sunday.

Westbrook will remain under the microscope after some questionable late shots, but what is more disturbing is the lack of motion in the OKC offense, as well as what appears to be terrible play calling by Scott Brooks. Even if you don't know much about NBA basketball, OKC's flaws were obvious tonight. Kevin Durant hit just 7-of-22 shots for 24 points, and missed all eight of his 3-point attempts, as the Thunder were just 1-of-17 from downtown tonight.
