Just a frustrating performance from the Clippers as a whole. Westbrook wears his emotions on his sleeve.

Nice to see someone give a crap from the Clippers side even if Westbrook was dreadful performance wise. A little more heart from rest of the roster and they can get back on track.

That’s the only way Westbrook is able to pretend to belong on the court. Fake wrecking ball hustle

Hes been a wrecking ball his whole career... now he's just less skilled due to age so it can look really bad at times lol.

He acted foolishly and played bad, although the team played fine in his minutes. He was only -3 in a double digit loss. I think only Paul George was better in that regard.

Although as is common with Russell, he chooses to be loud and aggressive when he plays bad while his teammates were quietly and passively bad, so he brings these criticisms upon himself.

I was at the game tonight and I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen as much douche-baggery as he showed tonight. I don’t see how he even gets off the bench.

That's the epitome of being washed. Dude went from being an MVP to being a more athletic Kendrick Perkins
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Pretty inexcusable. He is a vet and put his future availability on the line in a close series.

I think he avoids a suspension, but that is not definite. He did that shove/jab and then pushed a ref. He could definitely get suspended.

Westbrook despised and disliked Beverley, but now realize being like Beverley is the only way he gets some minutes. Mentally he is not Beverley type, so he just has to act it up

He was a great player but he's always been a pos.

I noticed a couple needlessly dirty plays in one of the previous games in the series. I'm not sure how he thinks any of this is helping.
At the end of the day, it's not about wins and losses. Teamwork, fair play, and good sportsmanship make champions of us all.

Go arbitrary assortment of athletes! Beat the other arbitrary assortment of athletes or my mood will suffer!

Been a bum for multiple seasons now and people keep acting like he’s still a good NBA player
