For instructing the Sacramento Kings not to play "Cold As Ice" as a way to heckle Russell Westbrook. https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/king ... er-report/ |

Yeah that’s pathetic. The league already has an image that they coddle stars (or former stars)…this plays right into it. |

But not surprised by Westbrook. |

Heckling is part of the game and as long as it's not derogatory it should be allowed. That's bogus |

Cold as ice thing is a fun little thing…it’s not personal, speaks to his on-court performance, isn’t profane, etc. There’s no reason they shouldn’t be able to play thing. If Sac fans had any sense of humor they’d be singing it all game. |

Reminds me of Rondo in the bubble. He took a picture of the bubble accommodations and posted it on twitter - complaining how disgusting and 'motel 6' they were. But for normal people, it was a pretty nice setup. But he's use to the presidential suite as 5 star hotels so to him it was shit. |

Nobody thinks Westbrook is a star. It’s lame and boring, but you can’t have a team shit on an opposing player through its own PA/graphics. That’s the NBA’s product, it doesn’t want one of its own teams making fun of it. Again it’s weak, but multibillion $ corporations don’t usually have much of a sense of humor. We’re lucky they can play clank sounds sometimes. |

Westbrook went 2-for-14 from the field and 0-for-5 from 3-point range in the Lakers' 125-116 road loss to the Sacramento Kings. |

I feel bad for the dude. Yeah criticism of him is valid but it seems excessive. He's a warrior and good for the league. Make fun of spoiled certified dipshit thief Ben Simmons instead. |

Guessing they’re just going to go with no trolling so in the future they don’t have to decide what’s light and what isn’t. |

Kd can correct me if wrong but I guess it's like McDonald's lightly trolling chipolte or something (when McDonald's was part of the ownership group) |

Southern NHL teams do entire jumbotron routines shitting on Winnipeg every time the Jets come to town. This is just the NBA being precious again. |

Do the Rangers still play the video of Nolan Ryan pummeling Ventura before every home game, that seems a bit hostile. |
