    Fuck Off Lamarcus is easy to say but if he came back this team would be a contender without question. Not that i disagree with the sentiment at all.

    So, Westbrick is fined $25K. No suspension. That's less than a tenth of a percent of his salary. Boy that will teach him a lesson. Nice job NBA.

    Okay first off it's wrong for Westbrook to think that guy had one wife in utah.

    "The league is different when the Lakers aren't good."

    You damn right! League is so much better! I echo your thoughts. FUCK the lakers (with the lowercase l).

    Well they forfeit a game check if they're suspended, so he'd lose more than $25K by being suspended.

    The fan in the Westbrook incident I believe is a racist. He deleted all his social media accounts and I believe there was damning evidence on them.

    I'm not condoning what Westbrook did. Frankly, I think he did a disservice to black people as a whole with his threats.

    C’mon, you are letting your hate for him as a person, block your common sense. You give us a player that can create his own shot in the post the way he can and we are dominating teams.

    We already have one. And he doesn't shoot soft ass fadeaways as a go to move. TT is a defensive liability. How the Hell is Aminu a better post defender? Wait, I know, It's because TT IS SOFT.

    As I’ve already posted in some thread, Westbrook was worse at Blazers game. He went 4 rows into the stands to yell at a fan. But it wasn’t caught by refs or on film so no one is talking about it. It was much worse than what he did in Utah. If the league saw it, he’d be suspended at least 5 games.
