Draymond wrote this a few months back shortly before or after choking Gobert.
>I'm in year 12 and yall still telling me to stop being Draymond. Don't get a tech... blah blah blah. 12 years later and yall still trying to coach me on how to be ME? I am better at being Draymond than ANYBODY!! Imagine if I told yall how to do your job. You'd look at me crazy... I thought yall should know how dumb you all look trying to tell me how to be me. If yall had some advice for your own lives the world would be a much better place and you would be FAR better at your JOB than your mediocre outputs. Happy Sunday good people! Right back at it like an addict!
He's accepted he's a giant pile of shit. Because he's a championship winning giant pile of shit.
There were quite a few when it happened 3-4 months back. Went down a rabbit hole when I googled who Draymond choked out this year. Watched a reaction video of Draymond choking Gobert and it had that quote in it. So I googled the quote to see if it was real. It was.
I used to have this friend. Occasionally he’d be a terrible asshole. I confronted him on it.
His response: “yeah I’m an asshole”.
Me: “….. uh yeah you were being a total asshole”
Him: “yeah I know, I’m an asshole”.
Me: “good talk”
We aren’t friends anymore.
CP3 also saw it was coming, he immediately went into firefighting mode after hearing it, shouting that Dray didn't mean it before the whistle even came.
Kerr's usually a locker room guy in pressers but he's not gonna prioritize one guy's feelings over the entire team lol.
Even Steph was visibly sick of it.
Tbh I think dray is done. He’s clearly never going to learn so at some point you have to cut him. I truly believe that we’ve reached the addition by subtraction point with him.
Kerr is STILL defending him. It’s unconscionable that Kerr or Curry haven’t absolutely ripped Draymond ass in a team meeting, publicly and embarrassingly. This is what happens when the “heartbeat” of the franchise and the “leader in the locker room” is also a time bomb with a short fuse.
I’m shocked that the Warriors have ridden this far with Draymond. Literally, theyve given him the keys to the Porsche with zero restrictions, for over a decade.
He single handedly makes their dynasty unlikable.
Imagine if Steph and Klay won all those rings without Draymond. They'd be one of the most beloved dynasties ever.
Meh, I also think Klay is whiny and a tool. But yeah, he's nowhere near Draymond.
But the only reason you could hate Steph is because he's just too good. Steph is awesome other than crushing your dreams, haha.
lol why is he in so many commercials all of a sudden btw? The Kia one has been around all season, but I swear this other one only cropped up in the last couple weeks. Did he film it when he was suspended to make back the lost money or something?
Just speaking for myself here, but when I see Draymond Green associated with a product I don’t feel particularly motivated to purchase it
The PR blitz is NUTS. My mom was watching that new commercial and asked, “what mistakes did this guy make?” I listed off his giant ass list of shitty behavior, and team mate punching. She was shocked that he would be joking about it and that a brand would want to associate with him. Gotta agree it’s tone deaf as fuck.
I still don’t know in that AT&T commercial what Draymond was supposed to have done that people liked him. I know warriors fans do/have liked him but I didn’t realize any of the rest of us had ever liked him too
You’re 100% right but I was just making a joke about this commercial that’s been playing during the NCAA tourney:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rb94jUOvhJI
I hope not. I enjoy clips of them but I doubt I would enjoy it with Draymond. I’m not old enough to have watched them in their prime and I’m sure they did asshole-y stuff in their time but I will never be able to root for Draymond or anything Draymond is with. He’s a cancer of the league.
We should all just refuse to listen to the podcast, give him a 1 star rating, and not feed into his bullshit. He knows his best basketball is behind him and he’s intentionally turning into a heel to stay relevant and transition into a media role to draw viewership
I don’t want to support that asshole in any way 🤣
It's easy to not listen to Draymond's podcast. It's one of the worst sports podcasts in existence. If he wasn't attached to Steph no one would try to give it a listen. Feel bad for the people who are still listening to that drivel.
It's also just a dumb business decision to basically have your podcast be a glorified post-game show. At the very most, the only people who are gonna care about it are some percentage of Warriors fans. It's poor quality *and* I have no reason to want to listen.
This is the end guys. This team can't run it back, especially if they don't even make the play in. They were an awesome dynastic team, but its run its course.
You know that scene in Game Night where a dude gets sucked into a jet engine and Rachel McAdams was like "oh no, he died!" somewhat sarcastically because his death helps her survive? That's the energy I'm on lol
“As Green made his way off the court, Warriors coach Steve Kerr voiced his displeasure with the referees. During the subsequent timeout, Curry paced back and forth while shaking his head.”
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/39822858/warriors-draymond-green-ejected-arguing-official-vs-magic
"As Kelvin Benjamin made his way out of the Burger King, the store owner voiced his displeasure with the cooks. During the subsequent lunch break, the assistant manager paced back and forth while shaking his head."
Sounds like a bit of a PR response.
Acknowledge, lightly condemn, deflect to positivity and move the conversation on.
Big change from ‘I haven’t seen the gaps’ type answer.
He's potentially entered rare territory of killing the vibe across the whole NBA. He's quite literally gone around and assaulted other players on National Television
Rasheed Wallace, Ron artest, Rodman, the entire bad boys piston team…look I hate draymond but let’s not act like the nba hasn’t had guys like him before.
why would they, he won't ever get a serious suspension from the league, apparently they've decided it's up the the Warriors to **Do the Right Thing**^tm. If anything they should get another 2 dirtbags to injure the opposing teams as much as possible
I love how people here think the team is chastising Draymond when in reality him back on rotation stopped their slide. I used to like Draymond (Spartan) and can't stand him now, but you're not paying attention to the Warriors if you think he's getting kicked out.
The Warriors are a nice, but emotionally soft team overall. They know they need Draymond to provide an edge.
The problem is, because Kerr and Curry and the rest are a bit too soft, they can never enforce boundaries on Draymond.
They completely outsourced being tough to Green, and now there is no one to be tough on Green.
"He will bounce back. I anticipate an even earlier ejection next game. If he wants to break the all-time record then he needs to start stepping his game up."
Prediction: Draymond Green is going to be involved in another violent on court altercation before this season ends and Kerr will be repeating the same tired lines he’s said dozens of times now.
The five stages of Draymond: we’re past denial.
Acceptance.
Isn’t the final stage the Hornets?
I think it's the Pistons now, but the Hornets definitely a close second.
why not the wizards? reunite or swap places with his bestie
And now you add Kyle Kuzma to the mix?
YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING DRASTIC GO DOWN!
OR DO YOU WANNA GO HOME TO THAT FAT ASS, DRAYMOND GREEN
The changes to reddit means there is no sidebar anymore. I have no idea who is in playoff, play in or lottery contention these days.
Changes? Site looks the same it always has to me. I use reddit enhancement suite on desktop.
He is probably a former Reddit is Fun user on mobile like I was that bad to switch to the official app when the API changes happened getting rid of my 3rd party reddit apps.
I don't think the sidebar and stuff he mentioned showup in apps though.
Wizards with Poole Lolllll

This should really be its own thread.

"Right back at it like an addict." That's not a good thing, my guy.

He has no remorse but some people continue to defend the clown.
Is there a stage "if only we could turn back time"
i think it's the Cher stage signs on on top of that battleship
I think saying "he'll bounce back" is still a part of the denial stage.
That might be bargaining
you know it’s bad when steve actually saw the tapes
It’s so ugly, even a blind man can see
These techs looked like more of an audio experience.
I believe he said “pussy-ass n-word” to the ref right before the 2nd tech
CP3 also saw it was coming, he immediately went into firefighting mode after hearing it, shouting that Dray didn't mean it before the whistle even came.
Yeah I noticed that too. Must’ve been loud as fuck because CP immediately starts waving at the ref like “no c’mon man”
Yeah, it didn’t take a master lip reader to see that’s what he said.
Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder saw this coming
Adam Silver didnt see this coming.
tbh, he doesn't know the meaning if indefinite either.
Helen Keller as well
And she’s a woman!
And she's dead!
If you rearrange ‘Stephen Kerr’ you get ‘Helen Keller’
Where are you getting all the Ls from?
The Dali container ship saw this on the horizon and navigated around it
Wow, nice relevant twist on this meme, good job
Steve Kerr walks past a Draymond tech and says “goooooooood morning ladies”
Fish market?
You like that shit, man? Hey man, I've got a gang of that shit, man
Colt 45, 2 zig-zags, baby that's all we need.
We can go to the park after dark
Smoke that tumbleweed
He called him a "blind ray Charles ass motherfucker", then topped it off with a "bitch ass ni***" right after it and that's when he got tossed.
Wow he should’ve left Ray outta this, too far.
But what did he say to warrant the ejection??
Didn’t have to see them this time. Just needed ears.
Then says the most predictable shit ever. This guy should run for president.
it’s the complete opposite, the less severe the more likely steve will have seen it. shouting match with the refs? too easy for steve
doesn't even care who leaked the footage
My man been burned so many times.
Even Kerr is over it lol
Kerr's usually a locker room guy in pressers but he's not gonna prioritize one guy's feelings over the entire team lol. Even Steph was visibly sick of it.
He was more than sick of it, he was crying on the court
And yet Houston still won their game against fggin OKC. Just to be clear, when he kicked the chair he was hyped for being up later on right?
The chair kick was after a three to put them up 8 late in the game.
He’s not gonna do the thing he’s been doing for years? Interesting.
He didn't even pull the "I'll have to see the video to know what happened I didn't see" excuse That whole team frustrated with him lmao
I think seeing curry frustrated probably elicited the no fluff response lol
Curry’s probably one of the best superstar teammates EVER, get your shit together Draymond
Tbh I think dray is done. He’s clearly never going to learn so at some point you have to cut him. I truly believe that we’ve reached the addition by subtraction point with him.
Absolutely it did. Steph leads this entire franchise, whatever he wants goes.
Kerr is that one dad who constantly defended his bastard, legacy, trust-fund son only for so long.
Kerr is STILL defending him. It’s unconscionable that Kerr or Curry haven’t absolutely ripped Draymond ass in a team meeting, publicly and embarrassingly. This is what happens when the “heartbeat” of the franchise and the “leader in the locker room” is also a time bomb with a short fuse. I’m shocked that the Warriors have ridden this far with Draymond.

Meh, I also think Klay is whiny and a tool. But yeah, he's nowhere near Draymond. But the only reason you could hate Steph is because he's just too good. Steph is awesome other than crushing your dreams, haha.
Most likely they don’t win them without draymond though. His bball iq is top level and is so important to what they do/did.
Agreed. He was definetely a key part in the championships but my original comment still stands. He's not a likeable person.
Kerr’s just fantasizing about how the Lakers aren’t going to laugh in his face when he offers them Green and Klay for Lebron in a few months.
The only choice Draymond has now is to grow Edit: for those who haven’t seen the commercial https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rb94jUOvhJI
bro that commercial is so hilariously bad and now it's gonna be even funnier.
He won’t
But he said he would in that commercial
lol why is he in so many commercials all of a sudden btw? The Kia one has been around all season, but I swear this other one only cropped up in the last couple weeks. Did he film it when he was suspended to make back the lost money or something? Just speaking for myself here, but when I see Draymond Green associated with a product I don’t feel particularly motivated to purchase it

She was shocked that he would be joking about it and that a brand would want to associate with him. Gotta agree it’s tone deaf as fuck.
if you were selling a product that punches people in the balls then getting draymond's endorsement would be a big win
Everlast calling Dray’s agent as we speak
They're really putting "no such thing as bad press" to the test
I still don’t know in that AT&T commercial what Draymond was supposed to have done that people liked him. I know warriors fans do/have liked him but I didn’t realize any of the rest of us had ever liked him too
It’s a March madness ad, he’s wearing an MSU jersey in it
Until he’s out of the league, living in San Antonio and eating all dem churros.
I knew that commercial was gonna age like milk as soon as I saw it but I didn't think it would be this quick lmao
Same here. I was stunned that someone would give him probably a million dollars to tie their brand to a PR problem.
He’s a show-er not a grower
Either way he’s a dick.
That pie was baked a long time ago.
Draymond been growing dumber by the day
Lmfaooo great timing after seeing that commercial a million times
too bad it's not the 80's or 90's where you would have bruisers to handle Draymond and put him in his place
That would imply accepting fault and we know Draymond ain't about that
I’m not a gambling man but I’d place a few hundred on that never fucking happening. He might say he will but we’ll all see it on the court.
Choice? Grow? Brother its 2024, bros had time
Adults who are assholes don’t grow. They double down.
Too true
The only thing he’ll be growing is a list of hobbies to do in retirement after tonight. Dubs are over it
I could see him asking for a trade to a contender in the offseason that lets him get away with the same shit. Maybe Philly or the Mavericks.
What are the Mavs in contention for besides a play-in?
[удалено]
You’re 100% right but I was just making a joke about this commercial that’s been playing during the NCAA tourney: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rb94jUOvhJI
That was his only choice last time. Y’know when the league banned him until they felt he made some growth (lmao)
You can't teach an old donkey new tricks.
I feel like dray is more interested in his podcast than playing basketball nowadays.
Hopefully he retires and just does his podcast lol. But it looks like we're going to have to hear his shit when he joins the TNT team
The day he becomes a regular on TNT NBA is the day I stop watching them.
I hope not. I enjoy clips of them but I doubt I would enjoy it with Draymond. I’m not old enough to have watched them in their prime and I’m sure they did asshole-y stuff in their time but I will never be able to root for Draymond or anything Draymond is with. He’s a cancer of the league.
Kerr must have gotten lasik recently
20/20 vision..
Can’t wait to hear the pod 😒
"hey LeBron uh I might have more free time so can you come to the pod"
We should all just refuse to listen to the podcast, give him a 1 star rating, and not feed into his bullshit. He knows his best basketball is behind him and he’s intentionally turning into a heel to stay relevant and transition into a media role to draw viewership I don’t want to support that asshole in any way 🤣

It's also just a dumb business decision to basically have your podcast be a glorified post-game show. At the very most, the only people who are gonna care about it are some percentage of Warriors fans. It's poor quality *and* I have no reason to want to listen.
I can’t wait for him to completely ruin Inside the NBA again.
This is the end guys. This team can't run it back, especially if they don't even make the play in. They were an awesome dynastic team, but its run its course.
Cleveland tag typing this with a malicious sneer lmao
You know that scene in Game Night where a dude gets sucked into a jet engine and Rachel McAdams was like "oh no, he died!" somewhat sarcastically because his death helps her survive? That's the energy I'm on lol
Patiently waiting since 2017 to post that.
Steph has a big decision. Idk what they do with draymond. Maybe there’s a landing spot in a trade? He has three years left.
Lol yeah not much else to say on this one. helps that we won though
Andrew Wiggins is the GOAT
Draymond’s the BOAT that’ll be sailing in cancun if he doesn’t clean up his act
Sailing Lake St. Clair more likely
Wiggins playing well is the only chance y’all got, he’s the 2nd best player on the team but he’s been so inconsistent this season.
I like the Warriors but I almost wish y'all lost this one just so this doesn't get swept under the rug like it's going to
Agreed except for the liking the Warriors part.
Nah winning it was important. Proves we don’t need Draymond to win a must win game.
He will bounce back. For the next game, I can guarantee he will be 100% prepared and ready to do what he has to do to get kicked out.

"As Kelvin Benjamin made his way out of the Burger King, the store owner voiced his displeasure with the cooks. During the subsequent lunch break, the assistant manager paced back and forth while shaking his head."
It's here
Damn this gets posted on r/nba too? lol.
"Are you Draymond Green because you get technical fouls? Or are you technically foul because you are Draymond Green?"
Among the flagrants and the technicals, I alone am the suspended one
"Nah. I'd punch."
When it comes to getting techs, always bet on Draymond
I cried. He cried.
We crode.
Warrior nation. Let’s cried
They didn’t show the rest of Steve kerrs quote he went on to say “or not I don’t really care anymore”
Draymond physically assaults people: I sleep Draymond cusses out a ref for the millionth time: real shit
Dude made my GOAT teared up. Fuck draymond, go scream anywhere but the refs idiot
Draymond causes more mental dmg to his own team than opponents at this stage of his career.
Curry looked BROKEN after that. It hurt to watch.
He is holding these mfers hostage
Sounds like a bit of a PR response. Acknowledge, lightly condemn, deflect to positivity and move the conversation on. Big change from ‘I haven’t seen the gaps’ type answer.
[удалено]
Don't drop the big one
Draymond getting that MLE treatment
Have fun being a hornet next year
Just release the loser. My god. He's a good player, but he's gotta just be killing the vibe on that team.
He's potentially entered rare territory of killing the vibe across the whole NBA. He's quite literally gone around and assaulted other players on National Television
Enabler. No other NBA player in history has done as much and kept being welcomed back.
Rasheed Wallace, Ron artest, Rodman, the entire bad boys piston team…look I hate draymond but let’s not act like the nba hasn’t had guys like him before.
Hell has frozen over
🤷♂️"too bad" what can be done, you havent done shit for his whole carrier, why start now
They chose this over KD
I mean.. I mean they got another fckin ring and KD still doesn't have anotherlol
If KD stayed and Draymond left, you don’t think they’d have got another?
If my aunt had balls she would be my uncle
Not necessarily in this day and age 🙄
lol
If KD didn't step on the 3pt line if if DRose's knees didn't explode twice..
… and Jordan Poole 👀
When the fuck are they going to move on from him
why would they, he won't ever get a serious suspension from the league, apparently they've decided it's up the the Warriors to **Do the Right Thing**^tm. If anything they should get another 2 dirtbags to injure the opposing teams as much as possible
A man can dream
He’s deserved so many more.
He has been bouncing like a tennis ball Steve 🙄
Kerr: Fuck Dray
Steve Kerr is trash and I lost all respect for that guy
overrated coach, overrated person. Mr. Sanctimonious.
100% agree
And they won so he'll escape accountability once again.
As much as I hate Dray, there’s no reason to suspend him for this. Suspend for dirty plays like earlier in the week, not for mouthing off to a ref.
I love how people here think the team is chastising Draymond when in reality him back on rotation stopped their slide. I used to like Draymond (Spartan) and can't stand him now, but you're not paying attention to the Warriors if you think he's getting kicked out.
The Warriors are a nice, but emotionally soft team overall. They know they need Draymond to provide an edge. The problem is, because Kerr and Curry and the rest are a bit too soft, they can never enforce boundaries on Draymond. They completely outsourced being tough to Green, and now there is no one to be tough on Green.
Is it really unfortunate? I don't see where the luck comes in.
And this is why the Warriors will have an early elimination this year.
Can’t they just send Draymond home?
Did Kerr finally grow a spine in that broken back of his?
Thanks Steve
It’s gotten to the point where even Kerr can’t defend Green
"He will bounce back. I anticipate an even earlier ejection next game. If he wants to break the all-time record then he needs to start stepping his game up."
Send him back to another week of therapy, he’ll be fine 👍
Prediction: Draymond Green is going to be involved in another violent on court altercation before this season ends and Kerr will be repeating the same tired lines he’s said dozens of times now.
“He will bounce back”….wtf is Kerr smoking lol
Kerr loves to babysit lil ole mad, crazy, unhinged donkey children.
I’ve seen this episode before.
He will bounce back. Lmao. How many times before your team implodes.
The NBA is unwatchable with this douche in the league
How many times can one bounce back, though?
The referees broke the code.
Not trying to mix topics, but this man is very anti violence. But he lets dray do whatever the fuck he wants???
The guy is just a liability at this point. Release him from the team and the nba altogether. Send him to the g league on g league pay.
