Westbrook OUT For Playoffs

[Pugz]

Russell Westbrook will undergo surgery on his right knee for a lateral meniscus tear.

No timetable for his return has been announced.

Westbrook suffered the injury in the second quarter of Game 2.

Westbrook had never missed a game in his NBA career.

"Maybe," said one source to Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski when asked if Westbrook could return in the playoffs.

Just hand the trophy to Miami.  May as well skip next season too and just give it to them, btw.
 
Woohoo NBA!

anyone know when it happened? was it when beverly went in for the steal after he called a TO?

 

[buzzy]

Yeah exactly that play according to nba.com.

 

[dez]

Yup
 
Their next matchup should be interesting...but remember Metta came back from this in what? like 2weeks? and Westbrook finished the game with his..

You'd think everyone here would be giving the Thunder a better shot with all the ridicule Westbrook receives.

 

[Pugz]

he is a cancer but they still need him. durant should explode if he truly wants to show he's #1 in the league.

i also expect the nba to make a rule about that kind of stuff soon. they should anyways.

 

[buzzy]

A rule regarding what?

 

[Pugz]

guards always try to swipe at the ball after the offense calls a time out.

its one thing to be mid steal but they go late, just to try. jvg said as it happened how its an issue.
