Russell Westbrook traded with Jazz fans during Monday's game

SALT LAKE CITY – Russell Westbrook did not like Utah fans. And his opinion will certainly not change after Monday night's game.

Last season, during Utah's win against the Thunder in the first round, Westbrook voiced his dissatisfaction with playing ahead of some more adventurous Jazz fans.

"Here in Utah, dude, a lot of vulgar and disrespectful things are being told to the players here with these fans," Westbrook told reporters last year. "It's really disrespectful. (They) talk about your families, your children. It's just a lack of respect for the game and I think it's something that needs to be raised.

"I'm tired of going out and letting the fans say what they mean.I am not with that.If I were in the street, they would not come to me and do not would say nothing crazy, because I do not play that (expletive). "

And he reiterated these statements on Monday. Except that this time it was not for the journalists, but for the fans.

In a video sent to KSL, Westbrook is seen confronting, swearing and even threatening a fan sitting near Thunder Bank.

"I promise you, I do not play," he said.

Shane Keisel, one of the supporters of this altercation, told KSL that he had never pronounced de jure or used incendiary language to the OKC star.

"I never told him anything. Everyone in the neighborhood would say (the same thing), and she never left her seat, said a word and put her hands on her lap, "says Keisel. Never said an expletive. Not one."

Keisel added that he was very unhappy with Westbrook's reaction to the women present and nearby.

"He can threaten me as much as he wants," he said. "I'm talking to him, but do not threaten a woman.

"His first NBA game, welcome to the NBA."

Spectators close to the situation stated that warning cards had been distributed to five fans indicating that "the comments, actions and / or behaviors you have directed against players, coaches, match officials and / or the spectators constitute excessive verbal abuse and constitute the Code of Conduct for Fans.
