  1. Moral of the story if you wanna result someone jus be rich otherwise your doing 5 years

  2. Imagine making tens of millions of dollars a year and being allowed to punch your coworkers in the face with no consequences.

    Privilege at work.

  3. Dray bit the bullet to became the villain so people will be intrigued and drive ticket sales up, waiting for the next incident to happen. Him and Poole starring in this drama will help recoup the luxury tax and pay the bills. Talk about twists hahaha

  4. Calling it now …. Pat Bev or JTA is gonna have fun with Draymond opening night and try and force his hand … he in no position to be going back and forth and they’ll love to agitate him especially since he shouldn’t even be playing

  5. Oh he’s not getting offered more money by anyone else. Probably the reason he got so mad, Poole might of let him know he wasn’t. Maybe a garbage team but he’s already said he doesn’t like playing against trash teams. Imagine how he’d feel playing for one. 😂

  6. The NBA, I love this drama. Went from durant requesting trade, to nets telling him to sit his a$$ down, to Ime Udoka, to draymond punching Poole. I’d like to commend the NBA production and director team that have kept us entertained while waiting for the season to begin.

  7. Draymond’s punch was worse than Davante Adams’ push but Davante Adams is the one charged with assault.

  8. That’s the more reason to have suspended Green. Missing ring ceremony night would have been a real punishment for embarrassing himself, his team and his organization.

  9. I have not seen the word 'punish' and all its variants used so frequently over a 7 day span, not even in relations to the 3 yr old 'Jan 06' attack on US Congress, has it been used that frequently.

  10. Meanwhile, the young guns are balling and all were talking about is Draymond.

  11. Kerr: "This is the biggest crisis we have ever faced as an organization since I've been here…"

    Draymond: "See y'all foos on Monday…getting my ring boooyeah!"

    Poole (victim): "Well ain't this about a b!@#$…I'm out!"

    Tune in to Gaymonds podcast….it's going to be 🔥

  12. Woj spittn facts, Dra ain’t getting that money elsewhere. Lakers are welcome to give him the 100 million he is seeking, plus extend Russel Westbrook while there at it 😅

  13. Did he really throw a ball at Poole a day or two before the punch and end up hitting a trainers kid? If only ESPN would do some more in depth reporting…. Hitting children seems like a suspend-able offense.

  14. Why is Green above the Law especially when he crossed the floor and clearly assaulted Poole?
    Now kids in High School can or College can just go out and do the same.
    Warriors organization have just sent out a huge message everywhere that violence is ok.

  15. You can still suspend Mr triple single and have him be at ring night. What a freaking joke 🤣

  16. People have disguised bullying, narcissism and now assault as passion and emotion. Adam should do to Draymond what the Oscars did to Will Smith

  17. Their giving him one more chance but once they will not get the ring this season, Green has to go..
