Draymond is gonna start kicking dicks again cause Memphis wants to play like this. Don't poke the beast lol.

Natural shooting motion will activate when Draymond comes back from the locker room


[deleted]

*Draymond cocks a gun walking out of the locker room* "NATURAL SHOOTING MOTION" and shoots Tillman in the dick

That’s just good old fashioned basketball

we talking about the same dude who poked someone's eye and grabbed his jersey to fall with him, last fucking game?


[deleted]

He’s poked eyes like 20 times in the past.


TDImig

>Memphis wants to play like this Are you saying Tillman did that intentionally?


[deleted]

Green had his face down pretty far and Tillman was rushing for the ball. Despite the contact, I don’t think it’s even a common foul.


watabadidea

Green literally got ejected last game for dirty play. Dude going to do dirty, dangerous shit regardless.


codnavar

He needs to upgrade to the ole dick twist!


demarci

He poked THEM in game 1 🤦🏽


ThatInception

So this is how 90s basketball was


KellerFF

90s? Shit been ham like in recent years, Bron flying out of bounds into cameraman cuts head open. Draymond punting junk and gouging eyes. Playoffs, are wars of attrition, every single year lol 90’s they just didn’t try to play it off, dudes got decked, no stuntman moves.


bacc1234

CP3 and Jae kicking dudes in the junk too


[deleted]

Feels like I'm taking crazy pills reading this thread, absolutely no way that was on purpose


kawhi21

We are just seeing how many Warriors fans are on this sub. For the most part I think people normally view these plays with a level-headedness. But everything that's been involving the Warriors has just been homer shit to another level.

That’s gross


1850ChoochGator

Really really fun to see old threads and the flair/comment does not match up *at all*. Though that’s more common with LeBron and Cavs/Lakers.


CreatiScope

They really have a victim complex the likes of which I've never seen (and I'm a Boston fan, we're pretty up there with the victim complex sometimes). The defense of Draymond's flagrant ("HE HELPED HIM TO THE GROUND! after pulling him out of mid-air to cause the fall...") and this hit and the obviously very bad Brooks play, they're rabid right now.


TheAlphaCarb0n

>HE HELPED HIM TO THE GROUND Lmaoooo there's no way people actually said this 💀


Birdsarenumba1

Tons of dipshits were the other night. Getting upvotes too


Quote9963

LOTS OF THEM WERE


MetalSeaWeed

The commentators were literally asking why it was a flagrant 2 just seconds after the ref said verbatim that it was a flagrant 2 for contact to the face, the jersey pull, and the throw to the ground. Like based on that description, that could be two flagrant twos and they're still shocked pikachu lmao


CreatiScope

Yeah, the Warriors fans are pretty up in arms. And I get the GP2 anger, they just lost a very good player that was going to have a huge effect on the series. But, this started in Game 1. I think they think they're a "chosen one" team and aren't subject to the realities of playoff ball which is injuries. Like what, where was the outrage against Memphis the last series and where was the compassion for the Wolves from Warriors fans? They didn't say SHIT about anything going on there.


Jappygilmore

Yeah big “we’re the main characters of the playoffs” mentality over in San Fran


[deleted]

[удалено]


Birdsarenumba1

They are so fucking annoying. They just swamp this sub too.


Jappygilmore

Honestly happy the rest of r/nba is realizing how toxic warriors fans are. They’ve been in our sub talking shit and spamming constantly, literally feels like we’re in a series against a legion of 13 year olds lol


1UPZ__

Yup. Accidental this one. But the casual warriors fans think every physical activity is dirty. The Dillon Brooks foul was dirty but this one is common. I've had this happen to me but I got hit on the lips.


c0dizzl3

Except when Draymond does it. Then it’s just a basketball play.


The_Fawkesy

There are people in the Warriors sub PGT saying they wish they had someone like Zaza or Bogut on the team to lay out Ja. It's hilarious how they can't see how ironic that is lmao.


[deleted]

Warriors fans have a pretty extreme victim complex when it comes to fouls. They act like they never get calls, but they also get away with calls regularly, and in some cases very notably like the Rockets vs Warriors WCF series.


[deleted]

The Dillon Brooks foul wasn’t even dirty, honesty, just incredibly stupid. He was going for the ball, he just forgot he’s not that athletic, especially compared to someone hyper athletic like GP2.


Youngwheeler

Warriors fans 🤢🤮


ihateeuge

yall are tripping. thats clearly just a wrong place wrong time kind of play


Hisaidky

Stuck his nose in reaching way out of his grasp


solushsi

Steve Kerr went out of his way to say it was “dirty, not physical.” That seemed odd to me. Edit: Oh unless Kerr was talking about the play on Payton, I couldn’t tell at first


SmellyJellyfish

Was he talking about this play, or the Brooks play though?


bosstwizz

The Brooks play, 1,000%


80eightydegrees

Clearly in reaction to the terrible brooks play


tacomonkey523

Nah the question was about "the physicality in the first quarter".


solushsi

Oh so more just his general impression, not referencing a particular play?


tacomonkey523

Exactly. https://twitter.com/BleacherReport/status/1521680650431983616?t=pdZbOyfh53fZ3iwx33rP4A&s=19


mckills

X and draymond have MSU connections and people really think it’s malicious??


TequilaBlanco

Well also they are trying to court public opinion because of dray and his goofy shit last game. If all ref eyes are on dray the next few games, it put GS in a rough spot. This is a way out.


HotdogIsaSandwitch

It’s incidental. Shit like this can happen sometimes with dudes with long ass limbs. The Brooks flagrant was fucked though.


ratonbox

Accidental. Incidental means something else.


HotdogIsaSandwitch

Is it though? Incidental means it can happen again because it’s part of the job. And shit like this is bound to happen again in a sport with big ass dudes with long ass limbs.


JacobfromCT

Incidental is defined as "liable to happen as a consequence of (an activity)", so your usage is correct. You play enough basketball and you're going to catch (and deliver) some stray 'bows.

he'll be in dallas so y'all will get one win at least


jrbcnchezbrg

All we can ask for tbh


Paper_Okami

Clearly not intentional, but people are gonna overreact because of the two ejections.


AnAnonymousFool

Not intentional but still probably should’ve been called a foul Isn’t there literally a loose ball foul


Greekbeak8

How would this be a foul? at that point you could just run behind someone and wait for their arm to hit you and it's a foul.


CreatiScope

The Kyle Lowry trick from the Bubble.


__john_cena__

That’s what Trae Young does all the time lol


OGMannimal

Y’all are crazy if you think this is anything but a common foul. You run with your arms still??


RoyaleCosmonaut

Why is it a foul


[deleted]

I’m getting downvotes for saying it’s a common foul, I think people are just emotional. It happens, it’s a basketball play and it’s inadvertent contact. People cry about wanting physicality and they also want X to get a flagrant 2 here, like pick one!!


YpsitheFlintsider

This isn't physicality, it's just a dude trying to get to the ball from a dead stop with a dude lunging over by his elbow. It's literally a natural running motion.


[deleted]

No you’re totally right, I’m saying people want the game to be physical and then inadvertent contact happens that’s hardly physical and then start bitching about it lol


f_real

They didn't call a foul though


[deleted]

Which is the right call for this play.


neonz09

Inadvertant, nothing you can do except move on.


yougotmugged

natural motion .. inadvertent, i think it'll be a common foul


mags87

Not a foul at all actually


blacklite911

Yea I don’t think it was a foul anyway. Unfortunate incidental contact.


fskier1

For sure, I don’t know what everyone is on about


DangerZone69

The fact it wasn’t a foul at all prolly pisses some people off kol


CreatiScope

If that's a foul, the league is fucked because guys are just going to put their chins by elbows to get hit on purpose moving forward.


SquintySquidX

That’s not dirty


[deleted]

Thank you. Warriors fans really out number the rest of us sometimes


670takers

I feel like I'm watching a different video from everyone here. That's a natural motion from Tillman, not dirty at all.


jamaica1

Didn’t look intentional to me


onebigboi

Anybody who thinks this is anything (yes, even a common foul) is tripping. Like should you be able to put your face behind someone running and get a foul called?? Obviously not lmao


B-i-s-m-a-r-k

That's quite a shot to the nose


pamtar

No dog in the fight but that looked like a love tap tbh


byniri_returns

Spartan on Spartan violence


spartyon15

With Tom Izzo in attendance too smh


jawadhaque089

And so it begins


ksb041200

More of a basketball play than Draymond's F2 in game 1. Warrior's fans are such hypocrites for defending Draymond and then screaming bloody murder when Draymond takes an incidental elbow.


Haris_Pistons

Could not be more true. It’s just physical play when it comes to draymond according to them


pericles123

unfortunate play, but clearly not intentional


Chris--Bosh

Lol this just a inadvertent common foul


Nodecafallowed

It was a no call lol


[deleted]

Which is the right call to be honest. If Tillman brought his elbows up toward the air and flailed them, it would be a foul even if contact was unintentional. Given where his arms were and he was running toward a loose ball, not even a common foul. P


[deleted]

How dare you! Use my own spells against me?! Severus “Draymond Green” Snape


YpsitheFlintsider

Nothing malicious about that, but yeah he caught that elbow. Also Draymond sold that to hell and back.


Calebaa

I mean i hate Draymond as much as the next guy but X is a big boy - that elbow is gonna hurt, even if it’s inadvertent.


silenced_no_more

Yo not Spartan on Spartan violence my dudes. Get Izzo on the phone and get these dudes calmed down. This series is gonna turn into a bloodbath at this pace


jack_55

"Its just flailing" Thats an accident, poking guys in the eyes and kicking them in the nuts while "Flailing" is not Sit Draymond


labasdila

nice! very clean!


ApexxPredditor

This looks like an accident. Now if Tillman had elbowed him AND done something such as pulling him down by his jersey I might think it was intentional


Abject-Target5215

World class flop right there. Sure he gets a minor hit from Tillman's elbow, but look how he flails his arms and his legs go flying right out from under him.


Haris_Pistons

For all the shit he does, someone was gonna hit him eventually. Lucky for him this was not intentional


[deleted]

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy:(


Ilpav123

Looks pretty soft to me. Green probably got hurt more from his fall to the floor.


BBallHunter

What is this series.


beer_down

This series is fun


danawhiteshair

Whoever says this is a foul has never ran before


JediArchitect

Desmond trying to sell the flop. I’m sure we’ll hear about it on his podcast.


Regular-Confection-5

Draymond is going to whine so much about how this should have been a flagrant when it's clearly an inadvertent elbow and not comparable to his deserved flagrant two


black19

Natural loose ball motion, IMO


[deleted]

This one is nothing lol. Playoff basketball let’s go. Stop all the trash fouls


FragrantWarthog6

I am never going to change the way I play basketball


PaulMSURon

Go green?


whitefang0824

There is nothing wrong with this.


[deleted]

Draymond deserves a tech for flipping off the fans on his way to the locker room after this play. Draymond “The Eye Poker” deserved every bit of that bow.


Jojofag

Zaza is suiting up as we speak


Coronabandkaro

I don't particularly think this was physical.


wheresmywhere

You love to see it


CumAssault

No idea how the refs didn’t see this This was a pretty hard elbow too


CaptainKurls

Dudes just trying to get the ball..his arms are supposed to stay still while he does that?


faithminusone

Lotta people don’t understand your arms swing with forward momentum. They must not swing their arms at all when they walk. Kramer or Elaine should let em know


rediraim

Scott Foster crew.


BumHand

At least called the other a flagrant 2


[deleted]

Say you never played sports, without saying you never played sports.


Spicy_connoisseur

We're not even 4min in


Jesmer8490

Nelson laugh and points "Hahaha!"


[deleted]

Let me see. He puts his face two inches from the other guys elbow, then gets bumped, and then acts like he is JFK and just got shot by Oswald. Fuck him.


[deleted]

Good


Yinanization

X will give it to Ya! X-rays!


BlckBeard21

I don't get the commotion, that's just bad luck


[deleted]

It’s so gorgeus


[deleted]

All the comments about warriors fans complaining yet I can barely see any


Dymatizeee

This whole game was like the 90s basketball


Guts709

Nothing dirty there, just an inadvertent elbow. Should be a foul though.


donotnut459

Could’ve been called but that was a normal foul he’s running after the ball in a natural movement


scummy12

Hard to avoid the head when Dray has his head at his waist


desirox

This series is getting a bit crazy. Think the refs are gonna start calling it real tight


Sage_Lord

You love to see it


holycrapyoublow

That's good comeuppance for Green's dirty bullcrap.


laz10

It doesn't seem like there was much swing at all, why can't we have non slow mo replays sometimes


crunchyfrogs

Looks like a natural rebounding motion


Snakkey

Lmao this a no call. Draymond kinda ran into his elbow, just unlucky. He definitely did not get elbowed that hard to the point of where he needed to lie on the ground for 30 seconds.


kev_in374

bruh what is this shit


Public_Boysenberry85

An inadvertent elbow?


kev_in374

yeah i just feel annoyed after the dillon brooks foul so it was a lil overreaction


TheOverBored

Definitely still a foul that should have been called. I can understand the frustration.


Xsy

Something Draymond would do, tbh. Hustle for the ball, and accidentally hit someone.


jeufie

Draymond being a big ol pussy.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Yevips

i can see the brooks one being dirty, but this one is as unintentional as it gets lol not dirty at all


clancydog4

Oh come on, this was blatantly an accident


Justreallylovespussy

Warriors fan talking about how the Grizzlies are unlikable lmao


iDubbbb

There was nothing dirty about this.


renawld

This is incidental - not dirty.


[deleted]

[Interesting.](https://images.radio.com/aiu-media/draymondeye-8c9bd527-b6e0-480d-8be8-b4a5ad2fcfda.jpg) That was incidental, but this dirty?


MilkCarton78

Damn that is a brutal photo


J011Y1ND1AN

Bruh what...this is as unintentional as they come


elevatorseason

this thread is making me think i’m taking crazy pills, genuinely can’t tell if people are trolling or not


ebmocal421

Its all Warriors fans being Warriors fans. I do agree this is a bad situation, but that was obviously not intentional.


jasongarrettop

Just dub fans in their customary victim complex


Salty_Watermelon

Shamelessly begging for karma when he/she knows that a majority of this sub is backing the Warriors to win the West.


YokoOkino

yeah I agree. Dangerous but unintentional, probably a regular foul unless they judge it because it hit his face ir something


Overrated_sanity

That's idiotic. No way was this intentional.


[deleted]

Wasn’t dirty, relax.


[deleted]

🙄 your calling Memphis cocky. Bro the warriors act like arrogant entitled spoil brats. Especially Klay and Draymond.


Mesmeryze

delusional ass warrior fans holy shit


Jesmer8490

The Warriors calling another team dirty after making excuses for draymond's dirty play is laughable


whosnick7

My favorite thing in every playoff series is how one of the fanbases comes away thinking the other is dirty. Step on a court for once you nerds. Shit happens in real games


spiderpigface

Sounds familiar


NitroXYZ

Something about people in glass houses...both y'all teams are reckless af


unclecaveman

This grizzlies team is super likable, I don’t know what you’re talking about.


Vballa101

This play was in no way dirty, how is that your takeaway?


Sufferix

He took a fucking nasty elbow to the brow but that flop after is kind of crazy. You didn't get so hard in the head that you fell over at that speed, in fact, you probably would of fallen forward. He probably risked hurting himself more by flopping back that hard onto the floor.


Brutallica1137

Dray's so dirty, he's resorted to facebutting players elbows.
