Mark D. Smith / USA TODAY Sports
Desperate times call for desperate measures, and with his Oklahoma City Thunder clinging desperately to a two-point lead against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday, Russell Westbrook acted accordingly.
After Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas secured the rebound off Westbrook's missed layup with just over a minute to play, the feisty point guard tried really, really hard to sell a foul.
It ... didn't work.
The Raptors won 103-98.
