The weirdest part of the Westbrook strip is that he doesn't even get credit for the steal, Paul George does. If Westbrook reaches in and dislodges the ball (let's assume cleanly since it wasn't called) then do they think Mitchell regathered it? Could there be a blocking foul called in that case?

It's a weird play, I wanna see the NBA ref twitter explanation for it.
 
Yeah but that’s not the rule at all so it was 100% a **** call. He still had the ball and the hip check through him completely of his path. Just cuz you get your hand on the ball doesn’t mean you have control of it or are allowed to then run into the guy.
Yeah, I'm not sure. He had his hand on the ball, so they are both in possession of the ball.
 
Everyone is complaining about that, but was it a foul? I've seen the replay a couple of times, and it looked like he got his hand on the ball.
I think he got mostly ball and it wasn't much of a foul but there was a little contact.
The real issue is that that play gets called a foul 95% of the time regardless.

Or he would have gotten seriously injured.
Nah. Would have thrown it down and got a free throw. That one handed one he attempted he cocked way back and wanted to do a flashy statement dunk (I don't blame him) but I think if he just goes up with two hands and quickly dunks it he would have had a 3 point play
