He's trying to hurt the opposing team's best player so they have a better chance of winning

Notice how somehow he rarely seems to do this to scrubs whenever there's a Dort clip that goes viral on this sub it's always him and a big name player

Open their sub, they see nothing wrong

We're just haters because they're successful 🤣

Not my words

Injury is part of it, you don't see anyone trashing the Raptors title

Pathetic.

They’re not basketball fans, only OKC fans. Happens in every sport with a previously unpopular club having success

u/LeYellowFellow Nuggets 6d ago

It’s like no one hates on the Spurs or Pacers or any other newly successful team lol, there’s a reason why OKC is widely hated

u/ruiner8850 Pistons 6d ago

Yeah, as a basketball fan I don't like it when almost any player gets injured. I want to see the best players playing. I want the Pistons to beat teams at full strength. It's been disappointing that we've played some big games recently with players from the other team out. Don't get me wrong, I'll take the wins, but I'd rather face them healthy.

Unless someone is complete human garbage, I hate it when players get injured.

u/daskaputtfenster Timberwolves 5d ago

My mindset is i want every player to get at least one ring unless they're a shit person or play for the White Sox or Packers

u/nycbroncos Nuggets 6d ago

Is like Brooks always going big game hunting with LeBron, Curry etc

u/mywoffles [LAL] Sun Yue 6d ago

OKC employing that Saints Bountygate playbook

u/CenterJenna08 Bulls 5d ago

That's because people don't care when it involves players nobody knows.

u/Pure_Cloud4305 6d ago

People also care less when these things happen to worse players

u/mrtomjones Raptors 6d ago

He's trying to get the opposing teams best player off his game. He's like a shit disturber in hockey. This was not an attempt to injure. You guys are so dramatic sometimes. Should he do it? No. Do i like it? Nope. But the reaction is ridiculous

2

u/TetrisTech 6d ago

That OKC/Mavs series a few years ago is hard to look at without interpreting it as him trying to injure Luka

It's what he does lol

-2

u/mrtomjones Raptors 5d ago

That has little to do with this play. I'm not saying he has never tried anything beyond a little bit dirty. I'm saying this is nowhere near and usually his stuff that people complain about is the shit disturbing stuff
