Draymond Green appears to trip Enes Kanter, then Russell Westbrook trips him back

It appears that Draymond Green may have purposefully tripped Enes Kanter in the second quarter of Game 4 on Tuesday night. Green kicked up his feet while falling backward and tangled his legs with Kanter’s.

A few minutes later, Russell Westbrook kicked a foot forward on a shot attempt and tangled his leg with Green’s.

Fouls weren’t called on either play, though reporters at the game said that the OKC arena replayed the Green-Kanter tangle-up many times.

Here is everything that happened to lead up to this:

During Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals, there was a controversial kick by Draymond Green that was hotly debated. Green kicked Steven Adams in the groin and was given a flagrant one during the game. After the NBA looked into it, the call was upgraded to a flagrant two, but Green was not suspended as some thought he would be.

Westbrook told reporters after the game that he believed it was an intentional kick. Green shot back, saying Westbrook “started all this acting in the NBA.”

What do you think about these two maybe-on-purpose trips?
