That's really not that bad considering the rest of his team had 45 points on 50 shots.



It's terrible. They don't move the ball. He has a ton to do with that.

I hate when shooters do that so I don’t have much sympathy.

I hate when dork fans try and mock athletes...especially when the fan is a fricking Mormon. Definitely don’t blame Westbrook there, fan was being a douche


Not everyone in Utah is a Mormon but regardless it looked like he was just trying to take a picture. Westbrook gets paid a fortune and he can’t take criticism and acts like a baby. He loves getting his ego stroked but can’t hang when he’s not being fawned over. He’ll throw a tantrum when he gets a question he doesn’t like post game and then walk off angry.

Nah, the guy was leaning way over the rail and stuck his phone right in Westbrook's face. The guy's wife was also leaning way over the rail. The security guy's first reaction was to tell the fans to get back, not to restrain Westbrook. Those fans were being assholes, plain and simple.

Man Gobert pretty much flew into PG. Bit hard af on the pump fake and then jump into him.

shite even Utah’s coach put his hands on his head thinking it was a foul because it was so obvious that his player messed up big time.

No call clip

He jumped straight into him. That is the definition of egregious.

I really dont care though. Im not a Jazz fan by any stretch.

Just tired of players trying to get bailed out by jumping into other players.

Yes, technically it is a foul, but I am glad the ref decided he wasnt allowing that shite into the equation at the end.

Westbrook made physical contact and tried to knock the guys phone out of his hand. He was the a-hole. You don’t get an excuse for physically slapping someone and trying to break their property. Whether you’re a fan or not once you make contact with someone, you’ve gone too far.

I don't think he actually touched him. Even if he did, that's a bad argument. Not like he loses his personal space because he's famous.

That final no call was basically the entire 2017-2018 Thunder summarized in 1 play.

God what a weird year.

I don't think he either. Typical OKC defense.

You do realize you’re not allowed to hang over on to the court, bench, or player walkways right? Like that dude was definitely leaning over into a very real restricted area.

Oh it’s gonna be on! Just like when Olajuwon sucker punched Billy “The Whopper” Paultz and ignited the rivalry! LINK

The guy was plenty far away. Westbrook is just a baby. He can’t handle losing and he throws tantrums. This is nothing new.

Security was right there. They were allowing it. Regardless the majority of players don’t have a tantrum like that. He’s just always got to be a tough guy and pissed off. He just needs a tampon.

On the bright side we’ll have plenty of chances to see more outbursts because Russ is never going to win anything.
