I swear they just put molly on there for stephen a to roast
Denver’s too big for them. Lakers could give them problems again too.
Draymond was right in what he did. Only thing that made it wrong was the fact someone filmed it and it got made public. Teammates fight. It happens often. How many times have ESPN shown footage of NFL players on the same team getting into scuffles and fights during practices? A lot. Yet Draymond too many is a scary mean black guy. So anything remotely violent he does gets blown out of proportion without any context given. When its plain to see he is reactionary person. He doesn't start drama, he ends it. Poole was out of line for the things he said during that practice. As an alpha and leader on a team you got to put in check the young pups when they step out of line. Thats what Draymond did. Plus Poole put his hands and pushed Draymond first. Its on the video.
With Poole gone you have no more dissension and someone potentially toxic within the ranks. Even Curry got tired of Poole,s immaturity during last season. Poole never owned up to his participation in the incident. Or apologized publicly for running his mouth ans saying the things he said. What sucks is that the team buried Draymond under the boss at the time. Klay and Curry didnt stick up for him. And Kerr and Iguadola were outspoken in condemning Draymonds actions. Without putting some fault on Poole. Draymond took full responsibility and accountability for what happened. And you know what it worked. Because at the end of the day the Warriors paid and kept Draymond and traded Poole.
20 or 35 threes😂mannnn what
Undisputed >
As much as I love me some Draymond, he really needs to stop. There is no excuse for him swinging and punching anyone. He played a role in making it hard to go to work. He played a major role in the lack of whatever chemistry was missing.
I'm still waiting for my apology from him to us Warrior fans for his childlike behavior.
First, who kidnapped Perkins and we don't want him back, he even praised Steph, second, it turned out Poole was a bad apple and while I was shocked at what Dray did, hmmm, maybe Poole had it coming. Now it's a different team, like it was said they enjoy coming to work and are playing fantastic. …and they have CP3, double whammy.
Won a chip with pooles help….so take it a LITTLE easy on him.😂😂
I’m not used to KP complimenting curry so much😂
Molly is sending some kind of code blinking like that💯💯🤣
With cp3.. i dont know if draymond as point forward is needed…
Where’s wiseman. Jookle? Dude. All those haters said the wise fool was a fools trade. Nah. Dnp. Jook missing a bunch of shots. Told ya.
At this point him not brining it up should be fine. We ALL know what happened. He can still address what's different. And if ANY of you are being honest, you saw flashes of players irritation with JP last year. No matter what happened, be a professional. And he was TERRRRRRIBLE in the playoffs. So I'm glad he's gone.
They can’t beat the San Antonio Spurs
What's an in season tournament??
SAS don't try to put any blame on Poole talking about he wasn't as innocent as people think. Did poole hit draymond? No? Okay. Draymond is guilty by himself, don't try to put both at fault somehow.
My Dubs giving me 2022 vibes 😁😁. Low-Key I'm not a fan of the CP3, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond, and Kevon Looney lineup tho. Too many offensive rebounds given up with that lineup
It will be a lot better without Poole
But they still not at the front, 4 or 5 teams better, size is a huge issue for them. Especially in the playoffs
Only 3 players with nothing to prove. Lebron, Steph, Jokic
