“Karma Is A B****…. Shouldn’t Have Tried To Trip My Son” Dejounte Murray’s Father Blasts James Harden For Dirty Play, Says Nets Superstar’s Injury Was Inevitable

James Harden

James Harden is expected to sit against Milwaukee as he nurses a hamstring injury. Earlier in the year, Harden had made a dirty play on Dejounte Murray.

The Nets superstar is not known for being a dirty player, but he certainly did try to trip the Spurs guard intentionally (at least it looks that way).

As Harden sits out, Dejounte Murray’s father believes that the Nets guard had this injury coming for him. Dirty players shouldn’t be rewarded for dirty plays, and while he doesn’t think anyone should be injured, he knows that karma can strike hard.

James Harden & Dejounte Murray Cleared The Air After The Incident, But Dejounte Murray’s Father Was Always Protective

Following Harden’s injury, Dejounte Murray’s father sent this Tweet:

However, this sort of controversial opinion didn’t fly too well on Twitter, and Murray’s father had to repeatedly justify his Tweets, even calling people sensitive:

Dejounte Murray did clear everything up, making sure that his father’s comments weren’t taken in the wrong direction. He said that Harden and him had cleared everything up in the past, and that there was no reason for any bad-beef to exist between the two:

“I have nothing to go with this and JH already cleared up the trip incident in real life. So I hope his injury isn’t nothing serious so he can come back and help his team compete for a championship!!!!!”

The Nets still managed to beat the Milwaukee Bucks without James Harden, but his loss is already having an effect on the team. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving both stepped up to say that the situation is heartbreaking and that Harden deserves better as does their team. Hopefully for them, Harden can make a speedy recovery.
