I do not think he deserves it, but there is no chance that something will not happen after such embarrassment.”

Westbrook Asked about the contempt of Lakers fans, he said: “I have a wife and three kids at home, I’m not ‘taking’ it home. 23 losses? It’s one of those evenings. Sins or not – it’s part of the game, but not playing hard is not something we can allow ourselves”. the coach Frank Vogel He said: “When you lose 23 balls you are not going to win. We have to forget about this game.”
