VIDEO: Russell Westbrook blocks dead-ball shot, scares everyone with fall
Mark D. Smith / USA Today Sports
Russell Westbrook hates dead-ball shot attempts. He tries to block them all the time. If you're thinking about shooting after the whistle against the Thunder, just do yourself a favor and keep that garbage out of here.
This is awesome...
Until you remember that...
What is Russell Westbrook doing? Didn't he have 3 surgeries this season?

There is an alternate universe, very close to our own, where Westbrook blows out his knee blocking shots that don't count.

Calm down, Russ.

If Russell Westbrook got hurt on that (protecting vs. non-shot shot), it would have been Kevin Garnett's fault.

. Careful, Russell. getting injured doing one of those "KG dead ball blocks" would be even worse than getting injured while celebrating
