NBA stars agree with Westbrook that Pachulia’s play was dirty

Russell Westbrook and his Thunder teammates weren’t the only ones around the NBA who felt Zaza Pachulia purposely fell on the defending MVP’s legs on Saturday night.

A couple of All-Star point guards watched on television as the Warriors center landed hard on Westbrook and both agreed it was a dirty play.

Celtics star Kyrie Irving, commenting on an Instagram post, said of Pachulia, “The league has to take a look at this man. That (expletive) is ridiculous!!”

Oakland’s own, Damian Lillard of the Blazers, also didn’t seem to think Pachulia’s awkward fall was any accident.
