    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>.@<a href="https://twitter.com/billsimmons">billsimmons</a> There's a difference in those clips in that Lin hadn't actually signaled for a timeout yet.

    Ha! I can't. One of the Admins replied to my post saying Westbrook would have gotten the same criticism had Jeremy been injured, then they closed the whole damn thread! At least Clutch would have debated. LMAO Westbrook is out indefinitely and you lock the whole thread on a Thunder Forum?!?! After 148 posts? Looks like I struck a nerve by posting!

    Too bad for OKC. Their team looked prime for a couple championship runs. First, they lose Harden and then Westbrick.

    thx for reminding why I hate the lakers and hate DF. Scola should have gotten up and chased that little b**** to the point of needing to be restrained.

    Awesome find and recognition, Clutch.

    Some media might not give credit where it's due, but they're paying attention.

    Their post-season is dubious now. No kidding you struck a nerve.

    You'd be a clueless and dumb person if you weren't trying to.

    same concept...but Bev did clearly do it right after the whistle. It would be the same if he got up a bit closer.

    This is the equivalent of a hit in the NFL, same hit, but Bev's seemed to come a little late.

    nba just gotten soft...these players are coddled by the refs. Like the JR Smith ejection last night, 10 years ago, it would've been a foul, and you just move on, nowadays it's a flagrant 2!

    The whistle came when Beverley was already in the motion of going for the steal.

    So no, it wasn't "clearly" after the whistle.

    Westbrook is said to have had four or five procedures done to that right knee ever since That Bev incident including a scope last year September. Now that knee injury is our problem, funny how it works out that way.

    Wow. The reaction in this thread from 2013 is very informative. Near universal hate directed at Westbrook. There's even a comparison to Chris Paul in there somewhere, as in putting CP3 in the same category as Russell. How times has changed. ;-)

    Don't know how I missed it at the time.
