NBA Note - Oklahoma City Thunder Westbrook, Russell

Nov 4, 2017 - 6:51 AM G Russell Westbrook had 19 points, six rebounds and 11 assists for the Thunder in their loss to the Celtics on Friday night. "We were playing a little slow," Westbrook said of the second half. "We came out a little lackadaisical and they capitalized on that." When Westbrook picked up his fourth foul in the third quarter, he wasn't able to guard Irving as effectively. "Obviously, you want to stay in the game, you've just got to figure out how to do it," Westbrook said of the foul trouble. "It takes you off your matchups and you've got to do different things." Westbrook was called for a Flagrant-1 foul after hitting Celtics G Jaylen Brown in the face during a jump ball in the first half.
