Westbrick couldn't shake hands? Now he's about to be an ass at the press conference.

Billy Donovan is a terrible coach. Sam Presti is terrible at everything but drafting.

Westbrook and thunder played their hearts out. Love them.

Shame this games turned into all that fouling at the end - it was really ridiculous. Something should be done to prevent crap like that, but not sure what.

Fourth quarter Russ is a thing to behold. :-?


It really is. Did you watch the regular season?

Russ tried to do what no man could, and he failed.

Meh. I really could not care less if my player or an opposing player doesn't sit there and shake hands and spew out some empty good games and congrats.

I'm not terribly bothered by this, but it's going to be annoying seeing people spin it as Westbrook being "old school".

It's no secret Westbrook is very emotional and extremely passionate. I wouldn't hold this against him.

- Wow Donovan got SCHOOLED by d'Antoni. I dont remember a playoff series where a coach dominated another that much.
- Sure Westbrook did some mistakes but I dont see what else he could have done. OKC was outright horrible and bricking open 3's
- Shame on Presti for putting a roster that is an awful fit around his superstar.

I love Westbrook, but the dude is an egocentric ****. The way he dismisses reporters, the way he treats his opponents. Take the L like a man, and congratulate your opponents. I understand he is competitive, but true competitors win and lose with class. And he's demonstrated no class.
