Like the Hatfields and McCoys, Russell Westbrook and Patrick Beverley have not finished with their long-standing enmity.
The taunt started early in the first quarter when Westbrook scored on Beverley, then crossed his arms as he rocked a baby while he was walking on the floor.
Beverley returned the favor late in the second quarter, scoring on Westbrook and celebrating with a baby-rocking mockery of his own.
The chills continued in the third quarter while the Thunder led 20-0. The only drama that remained was the growing quarrel between the rivals.
In the fourth quarter, Beverley diveed Westbrook's left knee. Both players had a technical foul after biting in front of the pews. Police officers entered the field to help keep the teams separate. After examination, Beverley's fault was deemed flagrant.
Westbrook did not directly address Beverley's action after the match.
"I have no comments on that," said Westbrook. "I just know we won."
But he explained the rock-the-baby movement.

The feud between Beverley and Westbrook goes back to the 2013 playoffs, when Beverley, who was playing for the Rockets then, tried to steal the ball at Westbrook as he headed for the sideline to claim his time. Westbrook tore the lateral meniscus of the right knee in the game and missed the rest of the playoffs.
The Thunder and the Clippers meet again on December 15th.
The long and short
Kristin Chenoweth, a native of Oklahoma, performed the national anthem before the Clippers-Thunder match and also shared a fun time with Boban Marjanovic who deserves another look.

The Broadway star stands at 4 feet 11 inches, while the big Man Clippers is 7 feet 3 inches. Looking more closely, you will find that Chenoweth is wearing heels and that Marjanovich only needs his thumb and forefinger to shake his hand.
If you can not get tired of Marjanovich, stick to the subreddit r / bobanholdingththings.
Cavs end slide opening
Rodney Hood scored 26 points, one of seven double-digit Cavs, and Cleveland ended his six-game losing streak early in the season, beating the Hawks 136-114.
In case you're wondering, the worst start record in the history of the NBA is shared by the 2009-10 Nets and the 2015-16 Sixers. Both started 0-18.

Leonard and the Raptors stop the Sixers
Kawhi Leonard scored 31 points and put the pin on Ben Simmons, and the Raptors recovered from their first loss of the season with a 129-112 victory over the Sixers.
Leonard dominated Toronto with four flights and the Raptors had 13, putting Philadelphia in a worst season in 23 turnovers.
"It's a monster," Simmons said at the end of the match, to the question of how he would behave to be defended by Leonard. "His hands are huge, he has long arms, he's an excellent defender."
Leonard did not talk to reporters after the match because he was lifting weights. Now, it is the commitment.
Happy Halloween
Tonight, in a match against the Mavericks, the Lakers celebrated Halloween Tuesday with slackers at the UCLA training center. More pics right here.
Meanwhile, Aaron Gordon came to work as Yankees rapper Aaron Judge. The resemblance is strange. Seriously, have these guys ever appeared in one place?
