Russell Westbrook Reacts to Zero Free Throws in Game 4 vs. Suns
Despite being in relentless pursuit of the basket all game long, LA Clippers guard Russell Westbrook shot zero free throws in Saturday's Game 4 loss to the Phoenix Suns. When asked about this after the game, Westbrook said he's going to continue attacking the basket,
"I don't know," Westbrook said. "I just attack and attack, man. Stay positive. Don't get distracted. That's one thing, just being in the league over time, when it's fouls they don't call, just concentrating on making the shot. If they call a foul, they call it. If they don't, they don't. But yeah, it's unfortunate, man. But come whenever we play again Tuesday, I'm right back at it, attacking the rim, and finding ways to make the game easy for my teammates around me."
On how he can alter his attack for Game 5, Westbrook said, "Finding ways. When I watch film I'm so hard on myself. Figuring out ways to be better, just being more efficient, taking care of the ball, defending better, not giving up on plays. I'm a guy that really strives to do everything at an elite level. So when I watch tonight, maybe I could have done something better. Give guys more shots, make the game easy for them so they don't have to work so hard ."
Always looking to put the team first, Westbrook is hoping to lift the Clippers to a Game 5 win.
