Over the weekend, Skip Bayless saw Russ' tweet and decided to respond the only way he knows how...with more aggression. As you can see down below, Bayless challenged Russ to a debate and continued to berate him for his poor numbers. Skip clearly isn't all that impressed with Russ, and he certainly did not hold back on social media.
"Hey, Russell Westbrook (@russwest44) ... happy to talk face-to-face about the nickname I believe I originated in 2012. JOIN ME ON TV/PODCAST. Let's talk about how you'll make $47 mil next yr after being THE WORST 3-PT SHOOTER IN THE NBA! Most overpaid player ever? PLEASE JOIN ME," Bayless said. "Amazing & amusing how Russell Westbrook is trying to turn himself into a victim after he was such a nightmare for Laker Nation last yr. All he has to do to shut up/shut down us critics is simply to MAKE SHOTS & QUIT COMMITTING SADLY COMICAL TURNOVERS. But ... it's critics' fault."
