Russell Westbrook loves to torment the Clippers.
He scored 40 points last night in L.A. He led the Rockets to a win. He waved bye to an ejected Patrick Beverley.
And before the second half began, Westbrook had the rim checked whether it was level. It was. My favorite part of the delay: The arena staffer on a ladder taking a picture of the even level, presumably in case someone on the floor didn’t believe him.
The Clippers no longer have Boban Marjanovic. These problems should be behind them.
