A lot of players and former players have been enabling his actions the last few weeks. Shaq, PG13's podcast, Gilbert Arenas, literally all cheering for him "choke the french out of him!". Shaq saying "good job Draymond" on live television.
Coming with the "grab your teammate" excuse, while it's just a made-up unwritten rule.
I'm positive they would have reacted different if it was an other player than Gobert.
I always took the Gobert hate as some runing joke, but apparently, it's not just people joking.

A lot of players have been probably backing him up behind closed door too, so of course it doesn't help if his peers enable his behaviour.
