Los Angeles Lakers fans are as loyal as they can be ruthless. If things are going well, then they'll stand with you until the end of time. If not, they'll make you feel their wrath.

It doesn't matter whether you're a former MVP, a multiple-time champion, an All-Star, or whatever. Everything you've accomplished prior to joining the Lakers means absolutely nothing to them.

Russell Westbrook can attest to that. He's been on the wrong end of the media for most of the season, up to the point that he's finally speaking up and stating that he can no longer tolerate the disrespect:

Westbrook and his wife called out Lakers fans for how they've 'harassed' him throughout the season. But far from being ashamed or sorry, the fans took offense in those words and took to Instagram to flood the comment section with 'Westbrick' comments and brick emojis.

That's why Lakers legend Magic Johnson had to come in Westbrook's defense, urging the fans to cut it out and stop it with the attacks:

Johnson, who also called out Westbrook not so long ago, urged the fans to just rally around him and support him as the team continues to make a playoff push:

Given how he's been treated and how he failed to adapt to the Lakers' needs, one could pretty much assure that Westbrook won't be back with the team next season.

The question is whether any other team will be willing to absorb his massive contract or if the Lakers will be forced to buy him out or waive and stretch him.
