Last season, Russell Westbrook took a hard fall and actually dented his face. It's a miracle the same thing didn't happen to the Oklahoma City Thunder guard when he fell after getting hit by Andrew Bogut Monday in Game 1 of the Western Conference finals.

Westbrook landed hard:

Westbrook was OK. It was called a flagrant one, which is surprising since it's a pretty common play from Bogut, but he did go to the head. Then again, Isaiah Thomas got nothing for an intentional blow to the head of Dennis Schröder in the first-round, so maybe the officials are just all over the map on such plays.
