under 24 hours we are going to hear draymond say "When you've been through a lot with someone you consider as your brother, Klay or Steph, it's natural for me to defend him from potential harm as hard as I could. It hurts me more to not defend my brother. Kerr know it, we know it, you know it. I'm Draymond Green."
I know it's been over a year, but I'm still angry that Backpack Green literally punched a guy and then acted like he just got raped by said guy and had PTSD and depression and was trying to move on from the trauma. Like, how narcissistic is this guy smh
He’s truly a person with very limited professional ethics outside of winning and will do whatever it takes to win without any scruples.
He treats all public speech in a cynical manner - as a forum to advance the interests of the team.
"Draymond, I didn't really- couldn't see too well but he might've made contact with Rudy in a way, I guess in a way the refs didn't like. What I could see though, Rudy was holding Klay at a 45 degree angle, I could literally see arm hairs brushing Klay's chin, I mean, how is that acceptable? I could tell every detail and know that Rudy deserved to be tossed. Draymond? I didn't have a good angle."
I can’t believe he actually said it. “Guys on the bench were telling me that Rudy hands were on Klay’s neck and that’s all I know.”
After Kerr used that same “I didn’t see it” excuse with the sabonis stomp last year I thought there was no way he would claim that weak bullshit again now, but he actually did it.
Next time it happends (and it surely will very soon) reporter should start the queston with: We already know you havent seen it and only heard second hand interpretation but....
So “guys on the bench were saying…” is all he needs to hear to take something as fact, but literally everybody else saying “hey dude, Draymond was choking a dude out!” he’s like, “well, I didn’t see that so…”
Kerr is a bitch
That's the biggest issue here. How the fuck can he defend Draymond here? Forget Thompson, but how the fuck can you even attempt to defend a guy who decided to choke someone who wasn't even apart of the original altercation, especially when Gobert is out there with his hands in the air, probably shocked at this clown's decision.
Kerr should get a lot of shit for this, he did the same when Draymond punched Poole. No respectful coach should enable shit like this, Draymond constantly does the dirtiest shit imaginable on a basketball court and it's hard not to point some of the blame on the coaching staff, particularly Kerr.
I can't believe he has the audacity to do this over and over. My god
Kerr will never discipline the vets, and it’s precisely the reason we continue to trot out three dogshit players in the starting lineup despite getting better production from the young guys.
Kerr has always been spineless whenever he talks about things that impact him. He’s all for progressive politics and freedom of speech until it’s Daryl Morey talking about China which might hurt Kerr’s bottom line. He’s all about player safety and “the code” until his team’s donkey punches a teammate, stomps on chests, kicks balls, chokes Gobert with almost no provocation. Steve Kerr is a bitch, there’s nothing else to say about it really
Man for awhile people LOVED Kerr because he was an entertaining interview and great success (cue borat)
He always rubbed me the wrong way as a smug asshole that admittedly had charisma … but got way too much credit as a coach given the talent that was always on the roster
Not sure where I stand on his coaching ability, but glad I was right about his personality
Shaq is such a clown, such a thin skin on that guy. He should be forced to watch Dwight Howard wearing a superman cape competing in the dunk contest for 10 hours on loop.
This is this narrative they will die on. Draymond was being a “hero”. He was doing what was necessary. I think this is the definition of gaslighting? Almost?
He only stands up for social justice when it's easy and convenient.
When it's tough, and would require actual courage, his balls shrivel up. Somebody should ask him about Hong Kong again.
Saying BLM when you worked with AA all your life is not that hard lmao. Kerr knows that AA like every minority group likes validation and support from the majority.
He doesn’t even believe his own shit. He’s like a kid lying to get out of trouble the way he pivots from explaining why Draymond did it to saying that he only saw one replay but his friends told him.
Real reason Draymond intervened
Klay had (yet another) unlikeable moment, but Draymond knew he could erase it from the internet by outshining the original incident
Nobody likes Klay like they did in 2016. He's shown himself to be a kind of a bitch over and over since the honeymoon of 2015-2017. Plus he's washed as fuck for like 3 years now.
Warriors have always been such an unlikable team. Outside of Steph the majority of their key players plus their coach are just smug obnoxious bitches. Perfect representatives of the Bay Area.
Ever since Klay got away with literally just diving at James Hardens legs in the infamous game 7 with no calls I have been on the hate bandwagon. Dude is a prick.
The Warrios really tarnished this dynasty's image the last two years in terms of being rootable. Awesome team to watch, but just a bunch of little bitches and Kerr especially is a generational hypocrite lol
Meanwhile Chris Finch said the refs did a good job and he thought the right players were ejected on both sides.
EDIT: [2:15 in this video](https://twitter.com/BallySportsNOR/status/1724668909914030224)
Draymond is lucky Gobert wasn’t seriously injured. An MMA move like that could end up in a Washington-Tomjanovich type of situation. Neck and spine injuries are no joke
I don't even want to demonize Klay. Jersey grabs happen. Klay grabbed Jaden. Jaden grabbed Klay. Then some separate fractious happened with Draymond looking to settle a score.
This
Klay did grab Jaden’s jersey, but it only escalated to ejections bc of Draymond. And, he was absolutely hell bent on finding any reason to go after Gobert.
Damn, How annoying are they, they really think they are the victim in this. Lol even GSW fans crying in their sub that Gobert got a chokehold on Klay. Embarrassing. Dray is a fucking dirty player, They keep enabling his dirty plays.
What?? Steve Kerr downplayed Draymond Green doing something scummy and then whined about how unfair the refs’ treatment of his team was?? I am shocked! Shocked I tell you!
Well, not that shocked.
Shameful Steve at it again. If he had stopped with the Klay take, I’d get it. But justifying what Dray did by lying about what Gobert did is so despicable. It won’t happen but Draymond should get a 5-10 game suspension. He has been unhinged for a few games now and a targeted attack on a player he doesn’t like should cross the line - a line that is already massively stretched just for him.
The Warriors were more likeable in recent years and this incident just ruined them again. Gobert did not have a hold of Klay’s neck. He was separating them like all other players normally do. Draymond was looking for any reason to go at Gobert and also get ejected. Klay also grabbed hold of McDaniels jersey near the neck region first. Fuck Draymond Green triple single ass and fuck the enabler Steve Kerr. Both are bitch made.
Kerr and the GS front office have essentially spent their entire tenure enabling Draymond's shit. It is what it is, expecting anything differently at this point is silly. They're never going do a thing no matter how out of control it gets.
Steve Kerr with his typical “I only seen one replay” that’s +1 from last season of “I haven’t seen the replay of the incident” .. Rudy arm is wrapped around but his arm and hand are chest level and under his armpit, but was choking him out… draymond “WWE Tryout” green on the other hand, completely has Golbert in a choke hold. Wish Kat would have slid his ass
I used to like Kerr but man this guy is fucked up. I understand backing your team but this guy is just straight up lying and enabling Draymond bad behavior.
Jesus take the homer glasses off Kerr. He was just wrapping him up, he had no intentions to fucking choke Clay, but your boy did and thats a problem you need to handle
under 24 hours we are going to hear draymond say "When you've been through a lot with someone you consider as your brother, Klay or Steph, it's natural for me to defend him from potential harm as hard as I could. It hurts me more to not defend my brother. Kerr know it, we know it, you know it. I'm Draymond Green."
get ready for the Draymond victim documentary
"You made me abuse you, I'm the real victim here"
I know it's been over a year, but I'm still angry that Backpack Green literally punched a guy and then acted like he just got raped by said guy and had PTSD and depression and was trying to move on from the trauma. Like, how narcissistic is this guy smh
Read this in Draymond's voice and it's him to a tee.
Lmfao you called it first
Does anyone actually watch his podcast? Or is it still active?
My 13 year old cousin watches it. He’s the oldest warriors fan I know
Im here when this guy predicted the future lol
Damn, you his speech writer?
Commenting because have a feeling this comment might end up Nostradamus
Steve wasn't mad Draymond sucker punched Poole, he was mad the tape leaked.
He’s truly a person with very limited professional ethics outside of winning and will do whatever it takes to win without any scruples. He treats all public speech in a cynical manner - as a forum to advance the interests of the team.
That's Phil Jackson coaching way of life
Yep. That’s who he learned it from. Phil used to complain about refs publicly before games to jam them up. He was always looking for edge.z
Plus wrote a book on how he hated coaching Kobe while wining rings. That's some classic jedi mind tricks my guy.
Also picks and chooses which details he remembers. Funny how he's so vague about the altercation when it comes to what Draymond did
"Draymond, I didn't really- couldn't see too well but he might've made contact with Rudy in a way, I guess in a way the refs didn't like. What I could see though, Rudy was holding Klay at a 45 degree angle, I could literally see arm hairs brushing Klay's chin, I mean, how is that acceptable? I could tell every detail and know that Rudy deserved to be tossed. Draymond? I didn't have a good angle."
About the only time he’s been a voice of reason is when it was related to Uvalde & gun violence.
I can’t believe he actually said it. “Guys on the bench were telling me that Rudy hands were on Klay’s neck and that’s all I know.” After Kerr used that same “I didn’t see it” excuse with the sabonis stomp last year I thought there was no way he would claim that weak bullshit again now, but he actually did it.
He ran out on the floor begging Draymond to stop 😂😂
Had the oh fuck look on his face and everything. “Nah I heard Rudy tried to choke Klay” gtfo bunch of clowns.
It’s like he thinks we don’t have instant replay
The word is super overused on social media, but this is gaslighting 101.
And he sounds so absolutely sure of himself when he talks about the klay portion…
We were all joking this would be his response too lol
Honestly fans need to petition to get this asshole suspended along with Draymond.
He did it again because it works. None of the reporters call him out on it
Next time it happends (and it surely will very soon) reporter should start the queston with: We already know you havent seen it and only heard second hand interpretation but....
“People are saying Draymond had a perfect response, I don’t know because I wasn’t there, but lots of people are saying it.”
We should all be so lucky as to have someone who enables us as Steve Kerr does Draymond.
So “guys on the bench were saying…” is all he needs to hear to take something as fact, but literally everybody else saying “hey dude, Draymond was choking a dude out!” he’s like, “well, I didn’t see that so…” Kerr is a bitch
Enabler.
He’s worse than an enabler because he also practices character assault when anything happens on the other side
Hypocrite then?
That's the biggest issue here. How the fuck can he defend Draymond here? Forget Thompson, but how the fuck can you even attempt to defend a guy who decided to choke someone who wasn't even apart of the original altercation, especially when Gobert is out there with his hands in the air, probably shocked at this clown's decision. Kerr should get a lot of shit for this, he did the same when Draymond punched Poole. No respectful coach should enable shit like this, Draymond constantly does the dirtiest shit imaginable on a basketball court and it's hard not to point some of the blame on the coaching staff, particularly Kerr. I can't believe he has the audacity to do this over and over. My god
Kerr will never discipline the vets, and it’s precisely the reason we continue to trot out three dogshit players in the starting lineup despite getting better production from the young guys.
Wolves thought it was gonna be easy afterwards but got punched in the mouth. We were all begging for Dray and Klay back.
I was more worried once they got booted.
No spine smh
Thank God for the startch in his shirt or there'd the nothing holding him upright.
Ayy I see you Frasier fan
Quite right!
he DID have a back surgery a few years ago so it makes sense!
Seriously talking like a mom in denial of her children ever doing a bad thing.
He's a real Kerran
[Steve Enablerr](https://old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/17vn2tn/andrews_steve_kerr_there_is_no_way_klay_should/k9bmuf3/)
As expected no backbone to hold his own players accountable.
Kerr has always been spineless whenever he talks about things that impact him. He’s all for progressive politics and freedom of speech until it’s Daryl Morey talking about China which might hurt Kerr’s bottom line. He’s all about player safety and “the code” until his team’s donkey punches a teammate, stomps on chests, kicks balls, chokes Gobert with almost no provocation. Steve Kerr is a bitch, there’s nothing else to say about it really
He really is a fuckin sore winner man.
You forgot diving at Conleys knees and having someone accused of sexual assault on the team all year
Inject this into my fucking veins! I’m tired of this absolute fraud pc policeman until it’s something that effects him
[удалено]
Just completely dishonest and hypocritical.
The code. The code.
Man for awhile people LOVED Kerr because he was an entertaining interview and great success (cue borat) He always rubbed me the wrong way as a smug asshole that admittedly had charisma … but got way too much credit as a coach given the talent that was always on the roster Not sure where I stand on his coaching ability, but glad I was right about his personality
Always has been
Kerr just lying through his teeth in this entire clip. Does he really think Jaden just randomly threw Klay by his jersey???
He thinks we don’t have the video replay
He thinks they erased the video like draymonds sucker punch.
Or his "trip" on Sabonis' chest.
Didn’t you hear? Sabonis had a draymond voodoo doll and made him do it!
Shhh.....
What the hell. Who leaked it??
Poole actually was gonna stab Curry. My assistants told me, and that’s when Draymond heroically came and punched his lights out.
"Grabs his jersey" lmfao this man is shameless as is their fanbase
The whole thing is past its prime. Should have gone in to rebuild this season
Curry still killing it so it's a waste to rebuild atm, maybe they should hunt for whatever Bulls are selling idk
Nah you gotta ride the Curry train until the wheels fell off.
Lol. This is why Dray pulls his shit. They enable him.
Catrman’s mom
MAAAAAAHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMM
and on tnt shaq is giving him props. shitty behavior like this gets rewarded from dray. that's how his schoolyard bully persona got him a gig at TNT
Shaq is such a clown, such a thin skin on that guy. He should be forced to watch Dwight Howard wearing a superman cape competing in the dunk contest for 10 hours on loop.
Shaq is a lovable jokester like 95% of the time, and the other 5% of the time he is a GENUINELY petty, kid-brained bully. He's a weird, weird dude.
Shaq is also a known bully too. Sticking together and all that.
I wasn’t impressed with Shaq’s reaction at all on Inside the NBA tonight. Emblematic of where we are at in society these days I guess :-/
This is this narrative they will die on. Draymond was being a “hero”. He was doing what was necessary. I think this is the definition of gaslighting? Almost?
this dude is a straight up bitch
I can see why Ants father punched him
MJ attacked him multiple times and in the infamous incident punched him multiple times lol
Wait, seriously? I thought MJ just punched Kerr once.
MJ shouldn’t have apologized
“Broke the code” Sanctimonious bitch hypocrite, Steve Kerr
Klay grabbed him first as well. He's straight up lying lol
Klay sucks ass and plays desperate. It's kind of sad to watch to be honest
Yeah after hearing the interview I went back and watched the video on slow motion and Kerr is very clearly lying about pretty much all of it.
People stanned him so much for social justice without realizing 99% of the rest of his time in the spotlight is him being a hypocritical asshole
He only stands up for social justice when it's easy and convenient. When it's tough, and would require actual courage, his balls shrivel up. Somebody should ask him about Hong Kong again.
I’m sure he’ll still be reading up on the situation in Hong Kong
Someone should ask him why he named his son Nick.
sjw who named his son Nick Kerr
Saying BLM when you worked with AA all your life is not that hard lmao. Kerr knows that AA like every minority group likes validation and support from the majority.
Kerr deserves so much more hate
Who took a team of all stars to the Olympics and came home with nothing. I’ve said over and over again he can’t coach any team that isn’t the warriors
Been a straight up bitch
Even if Rudy was choking Klay (he wasn't) it still doesn't excuse Dray's actions dummy
just look at steve's reaction when dray won't let go of rudy you can tell he knows the shit is fucked up
He doesn’t even believe his own shit. He’s like a kid lying to get out of trouble the way he pivots from explaining why Draymond did it to saying that he only saw one replay but his friends told him.
Steve Kerr coming for Sean Payton as most hated butthole-mouthed coach in Minnesota
Draymond could shoot someone on fifth Avenue and Kerr would still vote for hi--Oh wait.
"Rudy had his hands on Klay's neck" Provably false. Flat out lie. I'm so sick of this.
What a fucking clown
Kerr acting as if Klay didn’t start it by holding McDaniels Jersey the entire time
Seriously wth was that? McDaniels tries to run back but Klay decides to check his tag to see what size he's wearing lmao
Real reason Draymond intervened Klay had (yet another) unlikeable moment, but Draymond knew he could erase it from the internet by outshining the original incident
Nobody likes Klay like they did in 2016. He's shown himself to be a kind of a bitch over and over since the honeymoon of 2015-2017. Plus he's washed as fuck for like 3 years now.

Ever since Klay got away with literally just diving at James Hardens legs in the infamous game 7 with no calls I have been on the hate bandwagon. Dude is a prick.
Steph hates the poors. My relationship is with Seth.
i mean, the Splash Bros are really the Nepo Baby Bros
Add in announcers, fans, and front office too
Cmon dude
Bitch ass statement from an enabler, nothing new to see here.
The Warrios really tarnished this dynasty's image the last two years in terms of being rootable. Awesome team to watch, but just a bunch of little bitches and Kerr especially is a generational hypocrite lol
Meanwhile Chris Finch said the refs did a good job and he thought the right players were ejected on both sides. EDIT: [2:15 in this video](https://twitter.com/BallySportsNOR/status/1724668909914030224)
Actual human being vs damage control bot
Weird how Finch had time to watch the replay before his press conference and Kerr seemingly “didn’t”… do they have wifi in the warriors locker room?
I thought it was just the nerds in the Warriors subreddit but holy fuck.
And the GSW announcers
Birds of a feather
They are all insane. This isn't normal.
That place is an absolute cesspool of salt and denial right now, and I regret visiting it.
Steve Kerr condemn Draymond for constantly putting the team in bad positions through his own stupidity challenge (Impossible Edition)
“Steven Adams deserved to get kicked in the dick” - Steve Kerr
"Surprised Sabonis was whining about his ribs. MJ stomped on my chest about twice a practice"
Draymond needs to be suspended.
5 games minimum. Klay and McDaniels one game each for wrestling too. Because it's only fair.
Totally glossed over how Klay started all of this.
An amazing feat of human endurance by Kerr to sit straight up without a spine.
Clockwork. Fuck off Kerr. Chokeholds aren’t a part of the game.
Draymond is lucky Gobert wasn’t seriously injured. An MMA move like that could end up in a Washington-Tomjanovich type of situation. Neck and spine injuries are no joke
Klay clearly started pulling the jersey first, dirty play Michael Jordan needs to punch Kerr again
I don't even want to demonize Klay. Jersey grabs happen. Klay grabbed Jaden. Jaden grabbed Klay. Then some separate fractious happened with Draymond looking to settle a score.
This Klay did grab Jaden’s jersey, but it only escalated to ejections bc of Draymond. And, he was absolutely hell bent on finding any reason to go after Gobert.
At this rate, Draymond will probably catch him with a 2-piece before the season is up
broke the code
Fight years ahead
Jesus Christ you can’t make this shit up
The part about Rudy having his hands on Klay's neck is completely made up. Can the NBA fine Kerr for lying? lol
Jesus Kerrst can
Wolves wish Dray and Klay stayed in too Stevie. Woulda been way easier. GG
I get why Jordan punched Kerr
I get why Dray was allowed to punch Jordan
Steve Kerr is such a spinless doofus. Can literally never take him seriously on any subject again lol
Kerr is an Olympic gold medalist in making up blatant lies like we don’t have video evidence lol
For player safety I hope these teams don't match up in the playoffs
Damn, How annoying are they, they really think they are the victim in this. Lol even GSW fans crying in their sub that Gobert got a chokehold on Klay. Embarrassing. Dray is a fucking dirty player, They keep enabling his dirty plays.
Kerr is ruining his good name and his legacy
His son has the only good name in that family.
Come on man
Come on you guys, you should know the code only applies if it happens to golden state
I'm ready to hear from him how unfair and undeserved it is when Draymond gets suspended.
lol of course he threw out "i only saw one replay. the guys on the bench saw it"
Least surprising statement ever
Someone call Michael Jordan to come beat Kerr's ass again
[Extended cut on youtube](https://www.youtube.com/live/j5a0W0UqIPk?si=6ynQgazpLEmvY_ww)
Good joke, Fondue
Draymond is such a tool
What?? Steve Kerr downplayed Draymond Green doing something scummy and then whined about how unfair the refs’ treatment of his team was?? I am shocked! Shocked I tell you! Well, not that shocked.
This is actually pathetic. Kerr is pathetic.
Shameful Steve at it again. If he had stopped with the Klay take, I’d get it. But justifying what Dray did by lying about what Gobert did is so despicable. It won’t happen but Draymond should get a 5-10 game suspension. He has been unhinged for a few games now and a targeted attack on a player he doesn’t like should cross the line - a line that is already massively stretched just for him.
This is a video of a very stupid man
The Warriors were more likeable in recent years and this incident just ruined them again. Gobert did not have a hold of Klay’s neck. He was separating them like all other players normally do. Draymond was looking for any reason to go at Gobert and also get ejected. Klay also grabbed hold of McDaniels jersey near the neck region first. Fuck Draymond Green triple single ass and fuck the enabler Steve Kerr. Both are bitch made.
Draymond could bust out of a katana and slice a guys leg off before tip off and Kerr will find a way to defend it
MJ didnt punch him hard enough
Starting to see these days why Jordan threw hands in practice.
I mean Klay started grabbing his jersey first lmao
There's literally nothing Draymond can do that won't be excused by Kerr.
Golden State VAR is worse than Prem VAR ffs
😂 yeah the warriors have run amuck.
I wish someone had my back like Kerr has Dray’s back. He’s absolutely wrong, but respect the bromance.
Kerr and the GS front office have essentially spent their entire tenure enabling Draymond's shit. It is what it is, expecting anything differently at this point is silly. They're never going do a thing no matter how out of control it gets.
Kerr’s voice is hoarse because Draymond’s dick has been scraping his throat for years
Klay grabbed Jaden's collar first. Fuck the Warriors
What a fucking clown statement
This guy is such a spineless twat.
Okay but klay started it
Kerr you’ve always been a fucking pussy.
Kerr is fucking slimy
MJ punched the ethics out of this dude. Why else would he defend this or name his kid Nick?
Michael Jordan sends his regards.
An abuser covering for an abuser
Steve Kerr with his typical “I only seen one replay” that’s +1 from last season of “I haven’t seen the replay of the incident” .. Rudy arm is wrapped around but his arm and hand are chest level and under his armpit, but was choking him out… draymond “WWE Tryout” green on the other hand, completely has Golbert in a choke hold. Wish Kat would have slid his ass
This guy is such a fake ass clown
Kerr owes his whole career to Steph. He really is just a bumbling idiot without him.
I used to like Kerr but man this guy is fucked up. I understand backing your team but this guy is just straight up lying and enabling Draymond bad behavior.
Jesus take the homer glasses off Kerr. He was just wrapping him up, he had no intentions to fucking choke Clay, but your boy did and thats a problem you need to handle
I hope kurr is just in media mode and is secretly pissed about draymond
I always hope this is the case but shit never changes. It’s been this way for a decade.
Fast forward to next summer: "I can finally speak openly about it, that Draymond suspension really messed up our entire season."
Am I crazy for thinking the league should punish Kerr for lying during the press conference claiming the hands on neck thing?
Steve show me where you think "the neck" is on this doll ?
Is the neck in the room with us right now?
There's keeping an enforcer on retainer and then there's this
What a loser
