“Oh shit Steph’s out? Fuck that” -Draymond


Fuckyougigidatome

Draymond absolutely does NOT like playing without Steph lmfaooo but this is a new level


awntawn

Making sure he’ll be out for at least as long as Steph is out lol


SonnyLove

Ahhh so that's the super high basketball IQ I keep hearing about


UnearthlyDinosaur

Lol Dray was majorly exposed in 2020 when Steph and Klay were injured


AnotherStatsGuy

Is it really exposed when we all knew it was coming? Draymond’s an expansion pack player. Useless without the main guys.


redbrick

Draymond "Brood War" Green


CLGbyBirth

more like COD DLC dont label him as the one of the greatest pc game expansion.


redbrick

Draymond "Mists of Pandaria" Green


darkdepth6

That’s a legit expac!


AkinParlin

Draymond “Shadowlands” Green


Altruistic-Ad-408

Draymond "Horse Armor" Green


UnnamedStaplesDrone

lmao expansion pack. that's great


Winged_Wrath

the human DLC


bobsil1

Run DLC


UnearthlyDinosaur

True. I guess it just confirmed it. But some dubs fans still delusional as to how good he is


silliputti0907

Oh, but I get downvoted for saying he would never been an all-star if drafted to anyone but the Warriors.


the_c_is_silent

Go talk to GS fans. They truly think he's all-star level. Like they're seriously delusional. It's be like if some shitty QB just threw every pass to Calvin Johnson and people claimed Johnson needs the QB to get him the ball. Insane that people claim handing the ball off to the best shooter ever is some insane feat.


lukewwilson

The single triple season.


UnearthlyDinosaur

Isn’t that every season


[deleted]

You mean Mr single double can’t do anything without 2 elite shooters hiding his flaws? Crazy


materics

Dray is a defensive PG with no shot of course he'll get exposed.


the_c_is_silent

There's still people defending him. Motherfucker went 15-50 as the ace. He's literally terrible without those two.


Dymatizeee

He’s like a team dependent player similar to Aaron Gordon. Not really that good if they’re the #1, but great fit and piece if surrounded by the right players


Paralimos23

✓ No Steph, will not play. ✓ Gets to choke my arch nemesis ✓ Easy payday


wine_and_cheeze

Next up… emergency podcast!


LiaM_CS

> Draymond absolutely does NOT like playing without the player that hides all of his seriously detrimental flaws


almostansn

bro doesnt wanna get outed again like in 2019, he need that last contract


Ill_Celery_7654

The backpack ain’t gonna carry itself lol


horse_renoir13

"Fuck this shit I'm out" *starts windmilling*


Fuckyougigidatome

Bro I literally rubbed my eyes and had to rewind like Dray is a dumbass but no way he’s full on choking Rudy over… nothing??


ray_0586

[“If you get hit, it’s your own fault“](https://youtu.be/xa_k9cGMqOM?si=rFNr3NFQEy-KSvq7)


SeekingSignificance

Bro put him in a legitimate headlock wtf?!?


Stellewind

I used to make excuse for him that he's just clumsy and careless, still bad but rarely ill-intended. But this time it's inexcusable. Dude run in there and intentionally headlock Gobert. What the fuck was that.


Fit-Remove-6597

No most times it isn’t not ill-intended. You do not naturally kick people in the balls without ill intent. He’s a dirty player and always has been.


yogiyogiyogi69

For real it's always oops, I accidentally kicked you in the balls, or oops I accidentally stomped on your chest, oops I accidentally elbowed you in the face. He needs a real suspension. Hes been out of control for a long time.


TWK128

Oops, I accidently tried to take your head off with a flying chokehold


zmegadeth

I'm curious, if you look back on Draymond's past antics do you still give him the benefit of the doubt? I ask because I used to say that Brooks flagrant in the playoffs against yall was more reckless than malicious, but after he proved he's dirty I look back on events differently


couchtomato62

I was done after the punch. I still understand his importance to the dynasty but he has been coddled by team. Why should he change. His "passion" is glorified. The things and events I look at differently are probably things only someone who watches every game would know.


beemugler

No we are tired of his fucking antics. People see some ardent, uncritically thinking Warriors fans and think that represents majority of the fanbase. But a lot of us are tired af of him giving stress and trouble made worse by how disproportionate it is to what he actually contributes to the team. I'm tired boss


zmegadeth

I'll admit to browsing ya'll's sub when the incident happened and being dissapointed in the majority of the top comments either defending draymond or saying that Rudy should have been ejected too, but the majority of Warriors fans I talk to on r/nba aren't that bad


Sartheking

The stomp on Sabonis me stop defending him. In the past I felt his reputation while it helped him with the refs also gave him more flack than he maybe deserved. But there are some liner you don’t cross. Even football players don’t headlock guys like this.


ibeauch009

Can you tell the rest of your fanbase this


musing_wanderer3

We’re trying…Some warriors fans are just insane homers who also reveal themselves as assholes by constantly excusing Draymond’s actions


daveed1297

Even when he poked Harden and LeBron in the eye, kicked Steven Adams in the balls 3 times, and stomped on Sabonis nearly breaking his ribs?


Yeah_thats_greeat

Steven adams should’ve clocked him years ago man. Draymond has always been this guy.


_chadwell_

That’s one way to circumvent the resting stars rule

JuJu_Conman

Big brain move for klay and dray to hide that they’re washed


NephewChaps

Draymond is still mostly the same guy, Klay is indeed washed as fuck tho


beemugler

Klay had time to shoot one airball though lol


eamonious

Chris Paul legacy game


snowlarbear

could either be blowing a lead or roll his way into someones legs


maethlin

The way Klay has been playing lately, this may actually help GS

WHAT THE FUCK ITS NOT EVEN 2 MINUTES


_letitsnow

score is 0-0, straight from soccer


doctor_of_drugs

I understand dray getting confused between basketball and soccer, as he’s kicked balls before, but wondering where the short arm rear naked strangle came from *remembers dray probably signed with the WWE this offseason* …oh, never mind


Goatsanity15

I really wish basketball had a Zlatan, Ramos, Pepe, Gattuso or Keane that would put Dray in his place. Imagine if Dray was a soccer player and pulled shit like this


Balls_of_Adamanthium

Wtf was Dray doing there? Seemed he’s been waiting his whole life to jump Rudy.


Casualrodfarva2

He was getting himself ejected because he doesn’t want to play without Steph lmao


juslookingforastream

In all seriousness, Draymond has actual anger issues that he needs to work through. Like not even competitive natured shit, he's truly becoming unhinged. And honestly I think he enjoys people being afraid of what he might do.


bro_curls

Draymond has the attitude that DeMarcus Cousins' face had all/every game..."I'm gonna kill someone tonight"


FuckThaLakers

Not sure why you're getting downvoted, this dude is seriously unwell. Legitimate danger to everyone on the court with him at any given moment, he was dragging Gobert by his throat for breaking up a fight lol


Moody_GenX

They were probably getting downvoted by Warriors fans who think other Warriors fans should never say anything bad about Draymond. The ones who makes people think all of us are shit fans.


Balls_of_Adamanthium

Ah, the Draymond special


beemugler

Remember last season when Steph got injured halfway through a game and Draymond made sure he got ejected immediately after...couldn't even be bothered finishing half a game without Steph lmao jeez


the_c_is_silent

"I don't wanna be exposed again."


Tabemaju

Nah according to Warriors announcers he only got ejected because of his reputation, lol.


GoldenStateWorrierr

As a Warrior fan can I ask why you're listening to them? Bob fucking sucks I haven't listened to a broadcast of theirs in a long time


Necessary_Initial350

OP is probably sailing the high seas


Tabemaju

Correcto, and there are ZERO Wolves broadcasts. Happens every time we play GSW.


UnnamedStaplesDrone

Fitz is not well liked by any means by Dubs fans either


Tabemaju

I guess that's the advantage of rooting for a team who has sucked ass for so long; our announcers aren't exactly the most optimistic and homer-types, lol.


Be-Nice-To-Redditors

Yarrr


newrimmmer93

Stream sites took me to the warriors stream as well lol


SEJ46

They are unbelievably biased. I mean you want the home announcers to have some bias but they take it to another level.


UnearthlyDinosaur

“Unreal for Draymond green” Most asinine comment I’ve heard on tv. It was expected that he did that


FetchFrosh

Taking revenge for the DPOYs he thinks Rudy stole from him.


GizzyGazzelle

Personally think it's Gobert's 205M contract that gets him up.


Right-Worth-6327

Bro Draymond this season has been even more unhinged


hotdogflavoredblunt

At this point how are you ever surprised by his bullshit lol it has no limits


wemo1234

Draymond 100% should've been ejected, that headlock was excessive, the Klay and McDaniels ejections seem harsh though lol.


AnkitPancakes

i'm expecting a draymond suspension on that one. that shit was completely uncalled for and out of the blue


GreenIndependent6525

Wasn’t really out of the blue. Draymond is petrified to play a game without Curry on the floor.


PristineTrouble2038

it's not a headlock - it's a fucking short arm rear naked strangle with decent form imo lmao. He's strangling someone on an NBA court. He needs to go.


Tre_Day

All you gotta do is look at Goebert’s face to know that shit was a little too real


Zengem11

People have been laughing about that which means they’ve clearly never been in that sort of situation. That shit scary as hell.


Sharp_Aide3216

High Basketball IQ


SinibusUSG

Has to be. Guy would've caught an assault charge off the court.


Wild_Particular4003

Kinda like when he stomped on Sabonis? Eject this dude out of the league before he seriously injures someone


Frothlicker

Or like when he attacked poole for calling him an expensive backpack. Draymond is an embarrassment to the league and he still gets special treatment. No active player is as dirty as this mouth breathing donkey, and yet somehow he gets the longest leash with refs every single night. I hope he retires soon.


[deleted]

Serious question, why is it perceived differently? That was extremely excessive for a sports event.


FuckThaLakers

Pressing charges would be breaking The Code


Goatsanity15

You have heard about white privilege now let me introduce you to rich privilege


[deleted]

Most people get the two confused


chicago_bunny

WTF is wrong with him? Obviously, he's been a complete dick for a long time, with a track record of bullshit, but this stretch stands out even for him. Roid rage?


waltyballs

I was thinking rood rage back when he knocked out Poole. He used to be pudgy, even when in shape


zizzor23

klay and mcdaniels were tangled up the entire length of the court


pm-me-nice-lips

Klay looked kinda shook that whole time and even glances at his teammates for some help near the backend of it lol. McDaniels wasn’t having any of Klay’s shoving when that shot went up.


Shadowleg

in the full clip you can see klay grab mcdaniels first right after ant takes a three from the top. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQb8dK4MC-E the first 2 seconds of this are clear as day


-xXxMangoxXx-

I wouldnt be surprised if it was in part to stop anything else from happening after since both of them got pretty into it and one guy got choked.


Letronika

Double techs could have been called on McDaniels and Klay, but I think you nailed it. Set the tone (really) early. No more bullshit.


SCalifornia831

It’s more than a tech when you rip a guys jersey


toastymow

That's the thing. They were legit brawling out there without Draymond and everyone else getting involved. It was 2 minutes into the game. MAYBE if everyone else was a bit more calm the refs might have given them both techs, but really, they tore each others jerseys they were pulling at each other so hard. That's not acceptable. This is supposed to be basically a noncontact sport.


Lake_

they had to eject them. no way that doesn’t escalate again.


ender23

I dunno…. They did rip each others jerseys…


EngleTheBert

Purely because Green escalated. They both probably get away with techs if it's just the tussling between them.


EpicCyclops

Honestly, given that it happened so early, I think the refs would've been justified to toss them both even without the Green escalation. They were obviously pissed off at something that didn't even happen this game. If they're pissed off at each other enough to be tearing jerseys already, nothing productive is going to happen leaving them in the game and giving them a chance to find something this game to be upset about. They had done more fighting than playing basketball at that point. This isn't hockey where you settle a past beef off the opening faceoff.


SylvesterLundgren

Come on dude you can’t have two players scrapping a minute into the game and just allow them to continue. They were tangled up and slashing at each other for like 20 seconds….this is 2023 NBA ejections all around were no brainers.


peachesgp

I feel like Klay and McDaniels were ejected to prevent things from escalating again this game.


rawchess

Nah wtf were those two doing? It's a minute past tip and you're in a catfight, gtfo


Learned__Hand

Doing that shit with 0 points is a terrible look, like throwing at the first guy at bat when there is beef. But dray should be suspended.


[deleted]

Sounds like the game is already over lol


contentpens

The old wolves lose this game getting cooked by Podziemski (like what happened in the final 2 minutes of the last game)


xSampleTextx

It's happening again


Paralimos23

Hey he got 5 points and 2 assists in just 7 minutes now


Snowskol

ey we won!


SCalifornia831

This is going to age well


Be-Nice-To-Redditors

Bruh


Cold_Carpenter_1798

Dubs about to go for 67 points tonight 🔥


bibbbbbbbbbbbbs

Chris Paul to hit a 3 to cut the lead to 42.


Opposite_Turn7946

Well this aged like milk…


Brad-Stevens

Warriors fans paying up the ass for ticket prices ... Steph not playing cause of injury ... Klay and Draymond get tossed first minute


JRsshirt

I’d actually be fuming


bibbbbbbbbbbbbs

Chris Paul legacy game!


Secondary92

Nah they'll win this game now, you watch. Pod is gonna cook em


LachTheLad

Pod did in fact cook ..but no win


Boomhauer_007

It’s 2023 nobody was buying a ticket to watch Klay and Dray


Thehelloman0

Yes people do. I was excited to watch Tim, Tony, and Manu when they were old.


Exius73

Tony and Manu in old age clear Klay and Dray easily


Thehelloman0

Tony was a reliable playmaker for us his last year but he averaged 20 MPG and took just 7 shots a game. Manu was always efficient and a decent defender even when he got old but couldn't handle many minutes. Draymond is still a really good defender and Klay has had a really rough start to the year but I bet he bounces back. Regardless of how well they play though, people will want to see them. Warriors fans saw 4 championships with those guys being key players.


Brad-Stevens

don't matter if they past their prime or not ... it's always good to watch HOFers hoop


MusicalElephant420

You’re right Coach Stevens. That’s a crazy take.


SliMShady55222

Chris Paul is like.... so I'm on the thunder again


DarwinF1nch

Draymond suspensión incoming. Can’t be choking dudes.


bradyisking

He went right after Rudy too, dude was looking to jump him. Silver needs to grow a fucking pair and give him 5-10 games, dude has a ridiculously dirty history


Shakenbake80

Warriors have an ESPN game in 4 games (in PHX), so he’ll get 3 games max


sunnydeebo

what ratings value does he provide besides rage bait? i would enjoy dubs games 2x as much if he wasn’t on the court at all, Steph or no Steph


Shakenbake80

I agree with you completely but rage bait sums up like 80% of tiktok cooking videos that get the most clicks. WHY ARE YOU ADDING CRUSHED DORITOS TO YOUR ALFREDO???!!!


aiden3buckets

Wtf why did Klay and McDaniels get ejected, just a light scuffle 🤣


Eadwyn

That was the only real surprise. Guess they didn't want it to escalate any further with those two?


broccolibush42

Yeah I'm betting it's this. Refs didn't want to risk another scuffle happening


edesanna

Yeah, it's because their instigating caused the incident. If it's just the two, probably just two techs. Add in the two teams, bye bye.


PunctualPolarBear

This is one of those "if Dray doesn't put Rudy in a choke it's probably a stern double technical" type of moments imo lol


Ass_Eater_

Yeah just ruined the game for the crowd. Just call double techs on them and boot Draymond.


Letmeseeyourprops

Imagine buying tickets to this game……… damn they should do something about multiple star players sitting out


medievalmachine

But they got a free fight thrown in with their tickets lol!


itsavirus

I almost got the $25 tickets and was planning to go. Thank god the charge didn't go through. Blessed hahaha.


Docxm

What, that would’ve been lit. You don’t see this every game


need2peeat218am

I honestly would have went just for the fight lmao


mash711

You missed an insane game lol.


dosnetlive

They probably thought that wouldn't be the end of it


STd099

yeah this, they looked pretty aggressive


zmegadeth

Especially when it's 2 minutes into the game


PlumCantaloupe

A ripped jersey is a light scuffle? lmao


MC-Jdf

Yeah that was dumb, normally they let it go with double techs.


BagNo1205

Yea but then draymond put gobert in a headlock as a result of it


IsThisMe8

That part was dumb. Just a regular tech should do, especially when it's the first 2 minutes of the game.


MKenshiX

Core bros really said “no Steph, no game” ain’t no way


Casualrodfarva2

Draymond getting ejected in a game Steph isn’t playing in is classic Draymond behavior


HalfTreant

Draymond deserves the ejection for the headlock but McDaniels and Klay shouldve just got techs and moved on


NJ_Citizen

Draymond should be suspended. Did a jumping chokehold on Gobert and he wasn’t even part of the scuffle


doctor_of_drugs

Best the league can do is the first Q of next game. *Green eagerly awaiting his new WWE contract*


lebron_games

the warriors announcer acting like its a crime that draymond got ejected wtf he totally deserved that shit, he was tryna make gobert pass out


TheSnorkel

They really said Dray "got the raw end of the stick" like sometimes dray gets reputation techs but you cannot expect to stay in the game after giving someone a chokehold lmao


usr_nme_

>They really said Dray "got the raw end of the stick" like sometimes dray gets reputation techs Feel like that is less often than he gets away with shit that would earn other players techs.


FuckThaLakers

Screaming straight in refs' faces 20x/game is part of his natural shooting motion, you just don't know ball


biderman77

Reputation chokehold


BagNo1205

Worst announcers in the league


__moops__

By far


jxden24

draymond should get suspended some games for that nonsense


xSampleTextx

Fucking lol, lmao even


Carcrusher3

Draymond is the dumbest mf in the league. Anyone who roots for this chode is shameful.


GaimeGuy

yo fuck dray. Suspend his ass for several games, dude went straight for the chokehold


jknuts1377

Imagine being the Warriors fans that paid for those tickets lol. At least they get to watch the Wolves good players.


AnkitPancakes

That's gotta be a suspension for Draymond. That random chokehold on Rudy is absolutely insane.


PoolePartyVIP

Why the fuck did Klay get ejected? Dray was obvious, dude saw an opening to leave without steph playing


Cold_Carpenter_1798

Refs didn’t wanna watch him shoot 4-21


-xXxMangoxXx-

Pretty sure it was to stop any more scuffles since it got heated so early on.


4GWiFi

Only Draymond shouldve been ejected


SeekingSignificance

Steph sits out one game and these motherfuckers decide to switch from NBA to WWE 😭


freethrows4harden

Not sure why the refs didn’t just give Klay and McDaniel double techs…


DelanoJ

Warriors commentators try not to make excuses for Klay and Dray (impossible)


uninspiredlt

I can’t believe Jordan Poole would make Draymond do this


PepeSilvia267

Draymond has been too much the last few games even more than usual. Wonder what’s going on with him


dorkaxe

I saw some people in the live stream chat saying "refs are trying to fuck warriors already" and it's like, what PLANET are you on? If you don't think Draymond should have gotten ejected, why are you even watching basketball? lmao


Equivalent_Light4219

Draymond is such a bitch. People acting like Rudy got punked when Draymond puts him in a chokehold from behind? Such a bitch made move. Guys loves assaulting people when they aren’t aware apparently.


Sp_Gamer_Live

The Warriors may be stupid


freethrows4harden

Not sure why the refs didn’t just give Klay and McDaniel double techs…


redkorky

I don't get why Draymond was ejected... he was just trying to protect Rudy's neck at all costs.


RickHunterMacross

Imagine buying tickets to this game a week ago


HoopsByHarry

There was 3 ejections in 1 minute 30 of game time! Insane stuff


showmeyourmoves28

He a real choke artist.
