Needless to say, Russell Westbrook has no interest in debating who deserves the NBA’s highest individual honor this season.
Westbrook, one of the leading candidates for the MVP award, doesn’t want to engage the media in the endless chatter.

Per The Oklahoman:
“I have no take on it,” Westbrook said before OKC’s Monday night game in Dallas. “My job is to come out and play at a high level every single night and that’s what I’ve been doing.”
Westbrook was then asked if he at least enjoyed his name being thrown around in the discussion, to which he answered “honestly it doesn’t really matter to me.”
The reporter continued to prod, asking Westbrook “If you took your name out of the equation, who would you say is the frontrunner?” […] Westbrook’s answer: “You”
