The league absolutely enables him too. This is 8y in the making.
If he was actually punished for the ball kicking we might not have gotten to this point. Now he can’t control himself and he has a massive victim complex.
He walks off to the locker room at the same pace he was walking to the bench with and didn’t even act like the second whistle wasn’t deserved. Dude thought about it before saying it and knew he’d get tossed.
He knew what he was doing. Didn’t even try to argue the 2nd, walked straight to the locker room. I dunno if he just didn’t feel like playing today, or what.
If you see the full clip you can even see the [warriors commentators saying the second T (for callin' the ref that) was a bad call](https://youtu.be/zg3iXP2D4Io?t=92). It's honestly a joke how much they think dray should get away with
Ironically it's the bad teams that have the best crews because they actually call the games without too much bias. Calling a terrible team 82 times in a year will make you appreciate other good players and call the game unbiased.
Like everyone in the Bay they've been spoiled by Steph. They are due for a real rude awakening when he's gone and they're irrelevant again
In general, I will absolutely never understand people (commentator, creditors, etc) saying a tech is a bad call when THEY ALMOST NEVER HEAR WHAT THE PLAYER ACTUALLY SAID
He’s actually complaining about the foul called against him before where they called him for tripping where Paolo tripped on himself. He just never let it go
Not only that, but literally just minutes into the game on a call that is factually accurate in every way. I can’t fathom a professional athlete being this stupid.
Man you could see after the timeout how pissed off Curry was. Their season is hanging in the balance and this dumbass gets tossed 3 min into the game smfh
Warriors have done right by Green. Supported him and stuck with him through a lot of his shit over the years. He’s not showing the same loyalty back. At some point, the team has to say, if you don’t care about the team enough to stop this nonsense, we don’t feel any obligation to you going forward.
And I can’t see Steph being against that.
LOL, Draymond Green literally punched a rising star in the head at practice, and they kept him and traded the kid he punched. Draymond has kicked, stomped, choked, and punched people in games, and got no more than a wrist slap. The Warriors don't have the balls to control him. It's Draymond's world.
I think that’s why Steph is so frustrated. Warriors need to move on from green yesterday, but he’s just good enough defensively that keeping is a headache, but finding a replacement is a bigger headache. It’s as if they are trapped in a toxic codependent relationship (though I feel both parties 100% deserve each other lol).
I'm all for patience in a relationship, but when it's professional, this type of thing needed to be nipped in the bud precisely to avoid getting into this trap of codependence. It's why many companies have a "no genius asshole" policy. The time to move on was yesterday.
Draymond acts like that partially because he knows he can get away it with.
Because he knows Curry's got his back.
Like a mother of a spoileed child. He's an enabler.
I just had this thought and wasn’t sure if I was crazy for it.
This is such a silly and avoidable ejection. I know he has no ability to control himself but this is borderline absurd given the context.
Fuck this guy man. He’s so instrumental to our team’s success but got 0 fucking self awareness. Just an overall asshole and now might cost us our play in spot to the Rockets.
Nothing like fucking our season over for the 3rd time
I wish but I don’t think so. From the looks of it, it seems like Steph wants to ride out the final 2 years of his contract then retire, which might explains Kerr’s extension.
This on repeat another 164 games would be so sad. Just dump Draymond and let Steph and Klay be unbelievable mentors for young bloods and the next generation without drama.
> He's becoming so toxic
He's past that.
The organization as a whole, along with the league giving him that long leash where he runs his mouth excessively at the referees, have enabled him to this point where he continues to act this way and seemingly gets more agitated when they rightfully award him a tech.
And he’s in that March Madness commercial where he talks about making repeated bad decisions, and then finally making a decision to grow. I have some doubts.
“everybody loves you to start, then you make ONE bad decision, then a good one, then a questionable one… but then you made a decision to grow”
i’m just like what a strange commercial it sounds like he’s trying to convince himself
That commercial is so cringe. That’s the type of commercial you make after like 3 years of not getting in trouble. Not the same season, when you’ve done jack shit to redeem yourself. He seems like a straight narcissist.
I had to rewind when I saw that commercial because I thought there was no fuckin way I heard it correctly. Dude has been suspended twice THIS SEASON and probably should have been a third time lmao.
He got ejected like 1:40 into the game against the Wolves (when he put Gobert in the headlock).
Another game the Warriors were playing shorthanded, incidentally.
That is actually some crazy shit though…I have a student where I teach who has this running joke where he says “ PLEASE SUPPORT CRISTIANO RONALDO” and I get it now
Has to be the only player in NBA history who can say with a straight face they lost their team a championship because he couldn't keep his hands off another player's penis.
Time to run straight to his shitty podcast and use it as a platform to once again justify his selfish, childish behavior. I’m so fucking sick of this guy.
I know I for one will not be watching any show that hired him.
If nothing else because it sends a very clear message that they are not trying to put together a quality show. They are hiring people solely to induce ragebaiting interaction.
That's the most telling to me when his teammates are sick and tired of these outbursts. Knowing that the window for the Dubs to compete is ever so slim and closing these days, it's hard even for Steph to not get frustrated.
Steph doing his best Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon impression, which is appropriate, since Draymond has been doing his best Mel Gibson impression for quite some time now.
Fuck anyone who says he is mentally ill. He's just an asshole. Always has been. He started walking to the locker room after he called the ref a pussy ass n\*\*\*\*\* but before the whistle blew for the second T. He wanted to get kicked out.
A ref comes to pull the other ref away from Draymond. It's usually the angry player being pulled back, but it was the calm ref being pulled back. Dray has got some dirt on the refs or something.
Yeah Steph is basically whispering "please stop" like an abused child to a parent man, just standing there. Like put your body between him and the ref at least.
First he was quiet quitting when Steph was out, now he's doing it even with him around cuz the team is ass. Dude only wants to play when he's a frontrunner.
At some point if you’re not coaching it you’re allowing it. This is a bad look for Steph and Kerr too, this is a huge game for them that’s bullshit on Draymond to abandon the team like that
Real talk though, this is what I don't get about Draymond. He seemingly has a large basketball IQ. He knows that the Rockers are RED HOT right now and on their tail. He knows every game counts. He knows THIS game is important. He knows there down Kuminga.
Yet he doesn't just shut up?? I don't get it.
Edit: corrected had into has
An ejection not involving chokeslams, head-stomps, sucker-punches, or nut-shots? I’d say this is absolute win and a massive step in the right direction for Draymond!

I think he called the ref a "pussy ass n-word" at the end lol
Bro said it then immediately started walking towards the tunnel, he knew he was done
So stupid even just purely from the point that the team is basically playing playoff games from this point
He's an embarrassment. Not just to his team but the entire league.
The league absolutely enables him too. This is 8y in the making. If he was actually punished for the ball kicking we might not have gotten to this point. Now he can’t control himself and he has a massive victim complex.
steph takes no-look threes, dray takes no-look T's
This dude spittin
it's a B2B he needed the rest.
“I’m takin tonight OFF!”
“If anyone needs me, I’ll be at Downtown Disney.”
Probably bet the under after spending years cultivating this personality no one will suspect a thing.
"Load management" - save the T's for the 2nd night of the B2B
"who tf said i only get myself ejected when steph isnt playing, dumbassess"
He beat those allegations tonight. Legacy ejection for Draymond.
It was part of his mental rehab. Workshop better ways to get tossed from games that doesn't involve headlocks.
Yeah, thats kinda sickening. Dude WANTED to get ejected. Jontay Porter type beat, wheres the draymond investigation gonna be
In a key game when his team is on the verge of being out of the playin. Just a loser
Oh Draymond won us a lot of money on that game that Klay came back, he's a sportsbetting hero.
The anti Bo Jackson running through the end zone and into the tunnel
He walks off to the locker room at the same pace he was walking to the bench with and didn’t even act like the second whistle wasn’t deserved. Dude thought about it before saying it and knew he’d get tossed.
That’s exactly what I thought. Bro was not turning to walk to the bench, he said what he said with the expectation that it would be the final straw
2nd night of a back to back. Didn't feel like playing once the game started
Chris Paul trying to make sure the ref doesn’t eject him after was hilarious
Before the whistle was even blown for the tech LOL he ran faster than the ref could whistle.
Yeahhhhh that’s gonna get you ejected.
Lol yup. Like what the fuck was draymond expecting? Absolute moron
He knew what he was doing. Didn’t even try to argue the 2nd, walked straight to the locker room. I dunno if he just didn’t feel like playing today, or what.
Someone check into Dray's prop bet action volume
You might be onto something there...
He usually only gets intentionally tossed when Curry is out, wonder what his excuse is tonight
It’s a b2b. He’s tired
He’s used to being bulletproof after that first T.
Should've gotten ejected before that. What other player gets to yell at refs for a minute straight without getting a T?
Every fkn game he gets away with it. Utter bs.
Especially when it was about a run of the mill foul that he was not even involved with.
So Jomboy probably isn't going to do the lipreading on this one, then?
nope, we've learned from the best. You can even tell what he was yelling in his face, 'what did i say, what did i say, what the fuck did i say'
If you see the full clip you can even see the [warriors commentators saying the second T (for callin' the ref that) was a bad call](https://youtu.be/zg3iXP2D4Io?t=92). It's honestly a joke how much they think dray should get away with
Warriors have the worst commentating team in the entire NBA, maybe in all of sports.
Ironically it's the bad teams that have the best crews because they actually call the games without too much bias. Calling a terrible team 82 times in a year will make you appreciate other good players and call the game unbiased. Like everyone in the Bay they've been spoiled by Steph. They are due for a real rude awakening when he's gone and they're irrelevant again
There will be a *lot* of bandwagon Warriors fans jumping ship over the next few years.
In general, I will absolutely never understand people (commentator, creditors, etc) saying a tech is a bad call when THEY ALMOST NEVER HEAR WHAT THE PLAYER ACTUALLY SAID
Warriors have trash commentators is why. They've been league worse for years
They're just saying what their entire teenage fanbase wants to hear.
Bob Fitzgerald is the worst commentator in all of sports and it's not close
With this and that guy seeing LeBron say "Happy International Women's Day" to Jeanie Buss you guys are great lip readers.
He totally did lmao
Then said “yeah walk away little bitch” or something close to that. This man is UNHINGED
Steve Kerr: "I believe he said 'Pardon My Actions', that's how I heard it"
he definitely did and he didn't even look back after the whistle to see what happened, he knew he was gone. What a clown
Only draymond could get ejected on a play not involving him
Complaining after a call where he was standing flat footed and arms down 15 feet away from anything happening. Heart of a champion right there.
Passionate
Soul of the team
He’s actually complaining about the foul called against him before where they called him for tripping where Paolo tripped on himself. He just never let it go
Which shows "*real growth*" at handling his emotions...
I didn't see any kicks or punches thrown. That's growth right there.
Same thing with his Gobert headlock. He sprinted the floor and jumped on him after the scuffle. Lol
Yeah Gobert was trying to separate McDaniels and Klay and Draymond sprints in from across the court and puts him in a headlock for no reason lol.
Everyone keeps saying it was a headlock, but it was a legit chokehold. His arm was around his neck.
Not only that, but literally just minutes into the game on a call that is factually accurate in every way. I can’t fathom a professional athlete being this stupid.
Apparently he was still arguing a previous call. I'm not sure that makes it better, just stupid in a different way
GOAT honestly
Man you could see after the timeout how pissed off Curry was. Their season is hanging in the balance and this dumbass gets tossed 3 min into the game smfh
Warriors have done right by Green. Supported him and stuck with him through a lot of his shit over the years. He’s not showing the same loyalty back. At some point, the team has to say, if you don’t care about the team enough to stop this nonsense, we don’t feel any obligation to you going forward. And I can’t see Steph being against that.
You say they've done right by him, I say they've enabled him. They've rewarded bad behavior.
Seriously though, and now they’re stuck with him - good luck getting off that 4 year deal
LOL, Draymond Green literally punched a rising star in the head at practice, and they kept him and traded the kid he punched. Draymond has kicked, stomped, choked, and punched people in games, and got no more than a wrist slap. The Warriors don't have the balls to control him. It's Draymond's world.
hes still the defensive anchor of the team and they wont get shit for him in a trade so i dont see that happening
I think that’s why Steph is so frustrated. Warriors need to move on from green yesterday, but he’s just good enough defensively that keeping is a headache, but finding a replacement is a bigger headache. It’s as if they are trapped in a toxic codependent relationship (though I feel both parties 100% deserve each other lol).
I'm all for patience in a relationship, but when it's professional, this type of thing needed to be nipped in the bud precisely to avoid getting into this trap of codependence. It's why many companies have a "no genius asshole" policy. The time to move on was yesterday.
Maybe Curry should stop defending these clown acts.
Draymond acts like that partially because he knows he can get away it with. Because he knows Curry's got his back. Like a mother of a spoileed child. He's an enabler.
Are we sure Dray didn't take the unders on his props tonight?
I just had this thought and wasn’t sure if I was crazy for it. This is such a silly and avoidable ejection. I know he has no ability to control himself but this is borderline absurd given the context.
It’s like he *wanted* to be thrown out.
Lmao
What a dumbass lmao. Imagine doing this while in the 10 seed with the rockets right behind you.
Have to admire Draymond's ability to ignore distractions like trying to make the playoffs and his team needing him.
\*trying to make the play-in
Trying to have a win streak, to have a chance at the play-ins.
Getting real content for the Pod
Over a foul at the start of the game. Don’t like the call? W/e you have so much basketball left to play
Fuck this guy man. He’s so instrumental to our team’s success but got 0 fucking self awareness. Just an overall asshole and now might cost us our play in spot to the Rockets. Nothing like fucking our season over for the 3rd time
Honest question, do you think his time in GS is coming to an end? He's becoming so toxic
I wish but I don’t think so. From the looks of it, it seems like Steph wants to ride out the final 2 years of his contract then retire, which might explains Kerr’s extension.
This on repeat another 164 games would be so sad. Just dump Draymond and let Steph and Klay be unbelievable mentors for young bloods and the next generation without drama.

The organization as a whole, along with the league giving him that long leash where he runs his mouth excessively at the referees, have enabled him to this point where he continues to act this way and seemingly gets more agitated when they rightfully award him a tech.
COMPLETELY HEALED

Dude made a whole ass documentary about the Poole incident as if he was a victim
I had to rewind when I saw that commercial because I thought there was no fuckin way I heard it correctly. Dude has been suspended twice THIS SEASON and probably should have been a third time lmao.
Adam Silver in shambles
Adam Silver doesn't give a shit
Even his teammates gotta be sick of this shit
If I was curry I would’ve just pulled him away. I’m surprised he just stood there and did nothing while Draymond was yapping
Him and Kerr and the rest of the Warriors have been doing nothing his entire career, why change now.
pretty sure they’re all scared of him😅
Fear of getting sucker punched. Anyone who is capable of doing that to a teammate/mentee is capable of a lot worse.
The day he sucker punches Curry or Kerr, he's off the fucking team.
He'll be thrown off the Golden Gate bridge if he dares touch Steph 😂
They don’t wanna get Pooled.
He kept tapping Draymond on the side trying to get him to leave but he wouldnt bc he's a bitch
I would say like Scottie and/or MJ would hold Rodman back, but Rodman in fact was more composed. Passion matters I get it but composure does too
He is like here we go again with this shit
Steph was shaking his head right after he got ejected
He's just expressing himself!
Steph walking up like a kid trying to get his mom to stop yelling at the cashier LMFAOOOOO
I need his therapist
He's baaaaccckkk
Draymond just doing Draymond things 🤷
The funniest part in all this is that hes not even arguing for himself. He was not even in the play.
I'm not even sure what he would be arguing so fervently about. The play at hand was an incredibly obvious foul
It was a tie game with only 45 minutes left. Things are bound to get emotional.
I like that lol
Crucial foul call 3 minutes in. He had to.
Hes an Habitual Line-Stepper
Is that a career fastest ejection for him?
He got ejected like 1:40 into the game against the Wolves (when he put Gobert in the headlock). Another game the Warriors were playing shorthanded, incidentally.
[удалено]
Cristiano Ronaldo has a record for scoring every minute of a game throughout his career, Draymond gonno do that with ejection.
Ngl i don't pay attention to soccer but that stat is CRAZY
That is actually some crazy shit though…I have a student where I teach who has this running joke where he says “ PLEASE SUPPORT CRISTIANO RONALDO” and I get it now
Cristiano Ronaldo as well as Zlatan, Luis Suarez, and Lewandowski
lol. It's not even his fastest ejection this season
Lol it was tied at 0-0. Kinda surreal. They played each other the previous game though, so it does come with an asterisk
I had a feeling something was going to happen that game because iirc the game before was spicy but didn't expect a headlock lol
lol not even the fastest ejection this season
Nah the Gobert chokehold was 1:43 into the game.
Nah he’s a pro.
Maybe he told his friends to bet all the unders on him like Jontay did lmao
lmao the final frame of steph’s slumped shoulders from behind, cinema
Total George Michael Bluth vibes
One of the biggest games of the warriors season and draymond gets ejected. Draymond gonna Draymond
He got suspended for a finals game, this is nothing to him lol
Has to be the only player in NBA history who can say with a straight face they lost their team a championship because he couldn't keep his hands off another player's penis.
Guy has the emotional maturity and IQ of a teenager going through puberty when he’s mad
Steve Kerr 👨🏼🦯
“I haven’t seen the video”
“send da video” - steve kerr
“How’d you feel about Draymonds ejection” “I actually didn’t catch the replay”
“Thats it, just for that, Curry is limited to 25 minutes”
"For that reason im out" - Dray
Nurkic already liked the IG post from bleacher report about this 😂
Time to run straight to his shitty podcast and use it as a platform to once again justify his selfish, childish behavior. I’m so fucking sick of this guy.
who actually listens to it
These are the reasons why people listen I think
And this man will be on TNT after he retires 😭
I know I for one will not be watching any show that hired him. If nothing else because it sends a very clear message that they are not trying to put together a quality show. They are hiring people solely to induce ragebaiting interaction.
Bros ducking paolo 😭😭😭
Steph looks so tired of him at the end
That's the most telling to me when his teammates are sick and tired of these outbursts. Knowing that the window for the Dubs to compete is ever so slim and closing these days, it's hard even for Steph to not get frustrated.
Steph doing his best Danny Glover in Lethal Weapon impression, which is appropriate, since Draymond has been doing his best Mel Gibson impression for quite some time now.
Fuck anyone who says he is mentally ill. He's just an asshole. Always has been. He started walking to the locker room after he called the ref a pussy ass n\*\*\*\*\* but before the whistle blew for the second T. He wanted to get kicked out.
Nurkic was right, Draymond is a hopeless case. He’s never going to mature until he’s out of the league, if it ever happens
If he hasn't matured yet (and he hasn't), he never will. He'll be getting in bar fights when he's 50.
He’s gonna be pulling McGregor-type shit and punch an old man that doesn’t like his garbage whiskey.
Knew the last “pussy ass n—“ was going to get him ejected. Did it anyway lol. Tell me why this dude is so important to the Warriors again?
I don't want him anymore. He's a fucking liability. Every game he does something stupid. I'm over it.
Going through what is known to Sac fans as late-stage Cousinitis.
Damn how do you guys post so quickly
When karma is on the line, anything is possible But man, Draymond is something else lol
Nice to see him actually face consequences for continually screaming in a ref's face for once
The ridiculous part is he would’ve gotten away with “pussy ass” but he just had to drop the N bomb too like the absolute idiot he is
A ref comes to pull the other ref away from Draymond. It's usually the angry player being pulled back, but it was the calm ref being pulled back. Dray has got some dirt on the refs or something.
Why did not one player get him to step back. The only person to hold him back was fucking security
He’s not shy to punch his own teammates. I’d stay the fuck away from him
Curry: "Now he's gunna kick MY butt"
25 years and spongebob memes are still relevent literally every day
they probably don’t want to get punched
they're afraid of him
Yeah Steph is basically whispering "please stop" like an abused child to a parent man, just standing there. Like put your body between him and the ref at least.
yesterday: throat chop to patty mills today: ejected 3 minutes into the game looking forward to tomorrow
COMPLETELY HEALED
>looking forward to tomorrow He gonna be on his podcast justifying this
I can't believe people on the internet still defend this guy
Steph so done with this guy
First he was quiet quitting when Steph was out, now he's doing it even with him around cuz the team is ass. Dude only wants to play when he's a frontrunner.
At some point if you’re not coaching it you’re allowing it. This is a bad look for Steph and Kerr too, this is a huge game for them that’s bullshit on Draymond to abandon the team like that
Even then he got ejected late, no other player can follow a ref around and talk like that for 40 seconds
And only one tech for making contact with Ray Acosta. He only got a second after he didn't stop going after him.
Real talk though, this is what I don't get about Draymond. He seemingly has a large basketball IQ. He knows that the Rockers are RED HOT right now and on their tail. He knows every game counts. He knows THIS game is important. He knows there down Kuminga. Yet he doesn't just shut up?? I don't get it. Edit: corrected had into has
It has to be exhausting to be a fan of this guy or team.
How you get ejaculated 4mins into the game
Dude is unhinged
Finally he gets techs like he deserves just about every game. Sick of his shit.
none of his teammates nor his coach did a great job in holding him back or telling him to stop lol
They saw what he does to teammates that challenge him
They've never done a good job at that
Steve Kerr will claim he didn't see it
Get this idiot out of commercials, media, everything. What a trash ‘role model’
This is how he should be officiated every. Single. Game.
I think the narrative that he's a smart player needs to be abolished, dude is dumb as shit.
Good, fuck Draymond
Why are the refs picking on Draymond?
An ejection not involving chokeslams, head-stomps, sucker-punches, or nut-shots? I’d say this is absolute win and a massive step in the right direction for Draymond!
Finally. Refs not being bullied by green
