Russell Westbrook is the NBA’s triple-double savant, so he pretty much gets a free pass from anything. Four games of 10 turnovers? No biggie! Reckless hero shots? Obviously he doesn’t have anyone else to pass to. Trying to pull a Grayson Allen on Iman Shumpert? No outrage.
Seriously, during Sunday’s Thunder-Cavaliers game Russell shamelessly went for the trip on Iman, but luckily for him, he whiffed and avoided scrutiny:

Guess we also have to keep an eye out on Russ for attempted trips.
