[Highlight] Russell Westbrook had words for Kris Dunn: “You a nobody ass n… Nobody. Who are you? Try me. You ain’t trying sh*t. Go sit your bum a** down. F**k you talking bout?”
He checked the name on his back. lmao
“You a nobody ass …. who are you? Dunn? Who’s that?” Rough lol
meanwhile, if John Wall was still there:
“ummm… he play for the Providence Friars”
This made me laugh
No that’s Devin. Hey DC is this your boy?
We’re Dunn son!
What up Dunn!
You’s a dick blower, tryin’ to speak the Dunn language
Keep It thoro breh!
RIP Prodigy
What tha drilly wit that tho it ain’t bangin!
Dunn know who you are
lol
lmfao and he got a tech for this right? I think the ref heard it and thought it was bullying because he didn’t give any tech to Dunn 😂
He got a tech before this. Then he kept talking anyway lol
Genuine question, is bullying against the rules?
If it is, I’m calling foul next time I’m at the park playing pickup….let’s see what happens
Demand a free throw and the ball back.
Then get ready to call the inevitable flagrant foul to follow
And if they refuse, literally take the ball and go home. I know it’s not your ball, take it home anyway.
It’s his ball and he still getting bullied. We all need to show up at his next run and stick up for him.
It’ll be a flagrant 2 for sure but u/StoneColdSteveAss316 will be the only one ejected
The guys usually bully me more after I call it (if you can believe that?!). So I just have my mom come up to the park and tell them to stop 🙅♂️
Getting a technical for saying your opponent’s Mom makes horrible cookies
No but with like 20 seconds left and a double digit lead it’s just game management by the refs to get a guy to STFU and get out of the game with no shoving matches
Unsportsmanlike behavior will get you the equivalent of a penalty or technical foul in most sports just in case you didn’t know.
Sort of, it could be “unsportsmanlike conduct” which exists in every sport There’s a fine line between trash talk & unsportsmanlike conduct though, it’s basically just up to a ref on when it crosses that line or when it needs to be called to keep tensions down.
If bullying is against the rules the likes of Draymond and KG would’ve received lifetime bans lmao I feel like shit talking is a big part of the game.
You ever hear of Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan? Two of the biggest, most celebrated assholes and bullies in all of sports.
Actually checking the name on his jersey is 10⁄10
Dunn: “Okay Westbrick.”
You can’t say that, remember it affects his family legacy.
Sure does talk a lot for someone who can’t take the smallest criticism
His family suffers when you say this!!
Lol Dunn is an even bigger bricklayer than Russ
Only one gets genuinely upset by being called that though lol.
Chris Done
kris is shooting like 49% from the field, yall just go off vibes man.
on fucking 6 shots a night but yeah we’re running on nothing but vibes here
And russ would shoot 20 shots per game on 39% if you let him. Clearly 2 different levels of brick laying if one knows his limitations
one knows his limitations
lol is that what we call being scared shitless to shot the ball nowadays? dude plays 27 minutes a game and takes 6 fucking shot all fucking game and your trying to dunk on the guy that makes 6 shots a night on 13 a night. Even old man russ shits all over whenever da fuck dunn’s prime was. now go find another player to suck off while they shot 50% on 4 shots a night, like it seems you want on your team.
Edit: and just you be clear, I have fucking hated Russell Westbrook for his whole career.
I would say it’s knowing his role
Dedicated Russell Westbrook Stays Late After Practice To Miss 100 Extra Shots - The Onion https://share.google/o0SixegiO1JbC9Riu
Reported for hate speech.
Kris Dunn is still my most irrational what-if.
I was convinced he was going to be great and wanted the Bulls to draft him so bad. i was so stoked we ended up getting him as part of the Jimmy trade. Glad he has found a niche as a defender because he looked like he was gonna wash out for a minute there.
I thought he was gonna be the next john wall, man. Then again, i also thought Ricky Ledo was gonna be a superstar lmao. My basketball evaluation skills back then were way off.
Can’t even lie, I too hoped/thought that way too about Dunn. Had hopes for Marshon Brooks too
marshon was legit i assume he just didn’t play defense like a lot of guys back then
Ledo, Dunn, Brooks, tell everyone you’re from Rhode Island without telling them lmao
I still remember everyone saying “you Dunn fucked up” when we took Jaylen Brown over him.
People forget how ballsy the draft pick was. I also remember people saying he had no offensive upside and the Celtics overreacted by using a high draft pick to get somebody whose best value is maybe being able to guard LeBron as a defensive role player. That pick was so hated and everybody was so wrong
Yeah JB was in nobody’s top 5. I thought we could have at least traded down but obviously some other team would have gotten him.
I also remember a bunch of Celtics fans raging because didn’t draft Fultz and traded down to take Tatum, and then because we didn’t draft Josh Jackson lmao thank God we didn’t! Shows what NBA analysts know considering Fultz/Ball were considered the consensus top 2 players.
We’re honestly so lucky to have drafted JB/JT in back to back drafts, meanwhile the Sixers got Simmons/Fultz lmao can you imagine Embiid with JT and JB? Sixers would probably have 2-3 championships by now and Embiid would’ve been so much better off as a 2nd option (Jays would’ve been a great influence on him too compared to fucking Simmons)
I wanted Fultz bad 🤣 but I didn’t hate getting JT, I just didn’t understand why tf they did that. I guess Fultz lack of confidence was on display during the workout and Celtics said ‘nope’.
Fultz was entirely a hindsight is 20⁄20 situation. that dude was nba ready out the gates and was going to be a star. and then he forgot how to play basketball.
I thought Frank Ntilikina was gonna be special and Nerlens Noel
I think to be fair Nerlens Noel would of been good if he was drafted five years earlier.
The league quite literally changed as soon as he came in and those bigs slowly phased out.
Also didn’t he have major injuries in both knees?
Yeah, that other narrative is popular but it’s more this - Nerlens was easily mobile enough to keep playing in this era but not after injuries robbed him of his athleticism
Nice username btw…named after that giant Indian catfish, right?? I remember that shit from River Monsters lmao
Lol yeah that’s where I got it from. Jeremy Wade is the man
Similar story for Jahlil Okafor.
As a wolves fan, I had the same thought man. His rookie year I remember he hit a nasty crossover and I thought he was the absolute truth. I kept thinking as soon as this guy gets a jumper he’ll literally be a better John Wall.
Oh boy how I was wrong. Love to see him still in the league being a productive role player
I saw the game where he dunked on a breakaway and his grip on the rim slipped. Dude ended up biting the floor, probably leaving marks. I don’t think he was ever quite the same after that.
I think it was a Clippers playoff run that literally extended multiple people careers and created hype around a few guys that just didnt live up to what they did there.
Careful now with those takes the bulls scouting team might just hire you
The nasty concussion he got against Golden State changed the trajectory of his career. At least that’s the copium I tell myself.
Surely you’re a PC fan? The Dunn hope makes sense but thinking Ricky Ledo would work out? Lmaooo
Fine margins in the NBA.
Back when he would whoop Nova’s ass at Providence I thought he’d turn out to be at least a good scorer
Everyone hates Kris
My brother is a clippers fan and he (mostly jokingly) hates on Kris dunn all the time. Like me with Gabe Vincent except Kris Dunn’s defense isn’t hypothetical
Fuck cardio Gabe
Yea he’s not a clippers fan then
As a player, I hated Westbrick since his Rockets days. But now that he is on the Kings, his personality, his atitude, his persona**..everything about him except his game makes me like him very much. Kings almost NEVER had that type of player, only boneless mercenaries
Lol “except his game”
I had to chuckle cause that’s his actual job…to ball out
Might be the funniest roast ever.
I love everything about him, but not his game
We used to joke about that, how a guy’s scouting report would say he was active in his community, cared for his family, was punctual and friendly, and is weaknesses were that he was bad at basketball.
Giddey’s draft report comes to mind
Yeah I remember hearing that he had a scouting report that said his weakness was basketball, lol.
He hoops like a bodybuilder that doesn’t stretch
It felt like the punchline was leading to “and i still hate him”
What about his personality?
He’s very pro team
If Russ is on your team, you will always have at least one player who is ride or die. He’s brave, loyal and has a strong sense of honour.
Except his job is to play basketball not be the last samurai lol.
and he will go down as one of the best of all time.
wait why he was a dog for us, shit got fucked up when he got COVID and injured in the bubble
Instantly closed the Rockets contending window. Traded 4 picks and CP3 for Westbrick and CP3 instantly proved he was still the better player with Thunder
They were doing good before Westbrook tore his quad. I still think they had a chance if he didn’t get injured. The team they built was perfect for Russ and Harden.
They were one of the highest scoring duo post the merger(62.5 PPG together). Russ was just playing bully ball and he’d swing it out to shooters.
Westbrook didn’t even play in the Thunder series, he was hobbled against the Lakers too and again was fresh off COVID before the vaccine
You can now see why the Thunder loves him so much, this personality combined with an MVP level of play. When his athleticism could cover his lack of shot selection, he was absolutely electric.
I worked at Homeland back in the early 2010s. Thunder players frequently shopped there. Russell came in one day, and my out-of-touch coworker walked up to him and said “you’re Brian Westbrook, right?” Russell replied “yep”, put his things down, and left.
Unlike KD, Serge Ibaka, Perkins, and Stephen Adams who were all super nice, Russ was always “over it” for lack of a better term.
He’s my favorite athlete of all time lmao.
Same. I love everything about Westbrook besides his game. Dude has that dog in him that other players lack.
He’s a terrorist with the basketball. ADHD expressed in basketball form. Still liked him on the Nuggets.
Lmao
He still my 🐐
the rare time you seperate the bad art from the good artist.
Funny enough Russ got traded for Dunn almost 2 years ago
And then got packed up by a Nuggets team on which Russ was their 3rd best player for the series.
You’d think he leads the league in techs yet he isn’t even in the Top 5 😅
russ has a good relationship with the refs. he is pretty animated on the court but he’s pretty respectful with them.
source: ken mauer came to my work once and did a fireside chat.
damn why do players hates Dunn?
Because hes a dog
Ain’t no rule that says a dog can’t play basketball
I understood the reference
Not too much, just lost to the kings!
He plays hard, talks shit
Thats not nice
he’ll cry for a ref if a fan calls him “westbrick” tho
Love Russ. For real.
Just don’t dare call him Westbrick
As a Wizards fan I love that since he got pissed at the Kings’ reporters he has led them to three straight wins.
This the man that cries after getting heckled with “Westbrick” he can dish it but can’t take it,lol.
Quick to talk to other people like that but cries when somebody calls him WestBrick!
Bunch of SoCal natives on both teams talking shit to each other.
Literally worked with Dunn’s old man at a casino in CT. But okay. Lmao
Meant to say there’s a bunch of SoCal players on both teams, not Dunn specifically.
I was there at Inuit and everybody was talking shit to each other.
Dunn from New London CT
Calnnecticut represent.
Didn’t even know Dunn was a journalist
Kris Dunn is a solid player tho lol
Love Russ
At the time this set off, Russ was 3-13 when he hit the three that the Clippers were begging him to take on a 16 (now 17) win team and he was talking trash.
That’s everything you need to know about Russ.
Dunn can at least contribute to a winning basketball team. Russ and the Kings is a match made in heaven.
Kris Dunn def ain’t no bum. He a helluva defender and from where I sit he seems to hold a roster spot pretty well. But ofc he ain’t no Westbrook level
Would’ve called him Westbrick and had his punk ass whining to the media about it
Dude on the worst team in the league talking trash?
Seems about right for Westbrick
Woah buddy. That’s crossing the line. That’s his family’s legacy you’re tarnishing by changing two letters to a basketball related nickname that is totally fitting.
Ok? So being on the worst team mean you can’t say nothing 😭✌️
My cousin coached Dunn 👍🏾 lol go Prov baby
Then he whines when someone calls him Westbrick.
Kris Dunn doesn’t deserve that :(
This is what westbrick has always been about. I’m me and you aren’t me. I’m better because my stats. Childish.
Kris Dunn career earnings $33.5m in 9 seasons.
Maybe a “nobody” like he’s not gonna make the hall of fame or get his jersey retired, but that’s still more money than any person in this thread will ever make in their lifetime.
Like maybe if he was talking to some two-way contract player who is the 15th guy on a roster, but I don’t think Kris Dunn is really getting worried like “oh nooo, Russ said I’m a nobody.”
Every game there is a clip of Westbrook shit talking somebody. Like damn if I was on the kings I would be upset too. If you always get your feelings hurt maybe you should retire
Surprised westbrick didn’t have security remove him from the game
The man is mentally soft. He has no ability to look past anything and not let it bother him. A 4 year old could trash talk him and he’d be out there looking like he was gonna cry and telling him he ain’t shit.
Idk. Russ doesnt look that soft here lol hes still in the league chirping to dudes who will be long gone by his age.
The fact that Dunn could respond by changing two litters in his last name and Westbrook would completely crash out speaks to what a mentally soft bitch Russ is. Russ is the softest dude in the league and should never get a pass for getting multiple fans kicked out over the most harmless nickname ever.
The difference is Dunn knows who he is as a player. Russ will always see himself as the guy he was on the Thunder. Obviously Dunn is nowhere near prime Russ, but neither is current Russ…
Russell Westbrook must be the saltiest player of all time.
Nah, font talk to New London’s finest fym???
Hey man, I went to basketball camp!
I’ll always fuck with Russ and you can’t tell me shit lol he a dawg on the court
I love Russ
Westbrook is my dude
Triple double cocaine bear. And that’s a wrap
My 🐐
Dunn, I like Kris Dunn.
Usually he does this shit while losing but hell, they won
Who do think you are? I am!
Damn you’d think a dude who got sent to NBA Siberia would have a little more self awareness. Been a bum yourself for years getting passed around like a cheap hooker
That’s my Brodie
Nicest guy in the league.
He’s the nicest guy in the league didn’t you hear?
That boy ain’t trying Russ like he Luka that boy know Russ ain’t going 😂
It’s so funny that everyone here is shitting on Russ for being a punkass when Kris Dunn really does the most punkass shit
I hope nobody ever stays mad at Russ after the game ends. This just his on court personality and it gets him fired up.
People getting at Russ like they both weren’t jawing at each other. And it’s in game environment. I’m sure they’re both cool off the court as usual.
I hate to see two Utah Jazz legends butting heads :(
Westbrick talking too much about names, he forgets
I really think the only reason westbrook is still in the league is to talk shit on the court.🤣🤣🤣
Weird that Russ is talking noise on a lottery team and playoffs teams don’t want him
This is the happiest he’s been in years, he can stat pad on a crappy team and not worry about getting benched bc they are tanking
Ah yeah… Westbrook showing off his “maturity” as a veteran of the league. Glad he doesn’t have any rings.
This is why it’s on my bucket list to sit courtside at a game. I love trash talk like this. No JomBoy needed
“That’s the problem”! LOL, IYKYK
Thin skinned snowflakes lmao
Triple Double Cocaine Bear at it again.
Russ just looks like the old dude on the corner randomly yelling at everyone
This is Russell’s way of saying hello to a youngin
Fair.
Russ sure does talk a lot for a bum who been in almost all the teams
Westbrook looks like someone was building humans and they took all the scraps they had leftover and just combined them to make him.
Imagine getting beat by the tanking kings and Westbrook says this to you 😭
Checking the name on the back of the jersey is nasty nasty business 🤣
Dunn mustve said the W word lol
He’ll have plenty of time to see Dunn…in the playoffs while he gets cut by the worst team in the league lol.
The best ever
It’s so cool watching the professional whiners yell the absolute forbidden mean word at each other at their workplace in front of children.
Wolves fan here, Kris Dunn is not a nobody. Getting drafted in 2016 and still playing to this day is an incredible achievement.
He may not be better than Russ legacy wise but Kris Dunn would absolutely beat the fuck outta Russ if they fought and he’s arguably the better current player as well.
Russ needs to go to anger management! He’s always bitchin’ with players, fans, refs! After his playing days are over, I don’t want to see him on an episode of the I.D. Network’s Kill Thy Neighbor! Lol!
He Karim Garcia’d him.
Kris who?
Why are my Jazz legends fighting 😭😭😭
But if someone calls him Westbrick ….
1st ballot HOF speaking facts
Nba lip readers are always so horrible at this shit, I don’t trust a word they come up with
What a dill hole
Russ is insufferable.
I love Westbrook
Westbrook not holding back lately being mean lmao
Russ my man, you’re on the Kings..
