    At what point are teammates of NBA hot heads going to get pissed?

    I just noticed that Westbrook was suspended for his 16th technical foul and they lost to Miami. All these techs added up to this loss (IMO). You're healthy, you should be out there except your mouth and body got you in trouble too many times.

    But let's dig a little deeper:

    Westbrook has 18 technical fouls in 62 games. That's a tech every 4 games and seeing that teams put their best FT shooter at the line for those, you're giving up like 16 points for those 18 techs. Think about how many games come down to one point at the end, or being one point closer keeps you in the game or puts the other team out of the game. So if you know this, at what point do Westbrook's teammates call him out for it?

    But he's not the only one:

    Cousins 8 in 21 games
    Draymond 14 in 53 games
    Bev 14 in 71 games
    KD 11 in 65
    John Wall 7 in 32 games

    At some point I'd be like: YOU ARE COSTING US GAMES WITH YOUR BULLSHIIT

    Surely there are arguments for techs, but I rarely see the benefit. Discuss. Kidding.. just troll like there's no tomorrow. That's all ya'll are good for. (but remember.. only the good/funny trolls are well loved)
