Russell Westbrook nutmegged a Raptors player from 45 feet away with this incredible pass

I don’t know how Russell Westbrook saw this pass, much less completed it.

Was he trying to find Victor Oladipo or Taj Gibson? And did he intend to thread the needle between Cory Joseph’s legs, or did he think he could get the ball around him? How did he see this opening?

If I were Westbrook, I’d claim I meant to do that all along.
