Earlier tonight, Dallas Maverick’s owner Mark Cuban threw some shade at Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook by saying that he wasn’t a superstar in the NBA.
Mark Cuban says Kevin Durant is the Thunder's only superstar. What about Russell Westbrook? "He's an All-Star but not a superstar."

After Westbrook’s monster 36 point 12 rebound 9 assist game to eliminate the Mavs from the playoffs, one reporter asked him what he thought about Cuban’s comments. Before Westbrook could answer, Kevin Durant took the mic and repeatedly called Cuban an idiot for his comments.
