You’ve undoubtedly heard about Russell Westbrook’s performance on Wednesday night, a performance that will likely go down as one of the best of the 2014-15 season. Westbrook notched his fourth-straight triple double with an incredible 49-point, 16-rebound, 10-assist effort in a victory over the Sixers.
Twitter, of course, reacted in kind to Westbrook’s night, describing it as Michael Jordan-esque. Others went above and beyond, using VINES and memes to capture their thoughts.
Here are some of the best:

Russell Westbrook is awesome & not to take anything away from him, but the lack of defense in the NBA is evidence to why I don't watch often
