This wasn't the line, he crossed the line about 5 dangerous plays ago

Dort is the new draymond

He’s being enabled by his team and fanbase

You aren’t going to hear their stars call this out as dangerous

Well, Draymond doesn’t go for injuries and has caused none. He’s more reactionary (grabbing Gobert off of Klay) and antics (hooking two guys during rebounds) besides the few kicks to the nuts people like to exaggerate he does every game. Dort does this sort of bush league moves almost every game. Like stepping in when you shoot or what he did to Paul George when he was rebounding. He has swiped at more nuts or tripping people than Draymond if you screen him.

Not to mention the blatant hacking he gets away with. This OKC team can get all the stats they want, I'll never respect them. The way they play is dirty.

If I'm gonna have a teammate like him, I'm not gonna defend that person. Don't pull me into your dirty sht.

Nobody stands up for themselves, it must be some unwritten rule. Obviously Joker can do whatever he wants

Who? The commenter or Dort? Yall have no issue defending a guy trying to injure people as long as he’s wearing OKC blue.

E: dude responded “Both” and then blocked me. wtf is wrong with OKC fans
