Draymond Strikes Again!

[depthcharge623]

Everyone see his nut shot against Lebron the other night? Thoughts? Should he be suspended?

Being a Purdue and Cavs fan, I obviously think he's an idiot, a dirty player, and should be suspended (mainly because this is not his first time in the hot seat). Him (and that idiot Barkley) try to argue "oh it's so disrespectful for a player to step over another player." Is that a real thing? I've never heard that in my life and it sounds like a load of crap. To me it just looked like Lebron was trying to get back in the game. I shouldn't be obligated to go around you to play defense if you are going to flop and flail on the ground. But even if it is disrespectful, who cares? Is that license to strike another player in the nuts? Doubt it.

Lebron may have disrespected him but Draymond's pride took over and he did the one thing he shouldn't have. He knew he was on the hot seat because of the previous offense, all he had to do was not nut shot Lebron there.

 

[Mcluck]

Stupid move should not have been a flagrant foul called later. Even if it was why just him? Didn't the "King" instigate the whole thing? I think it's just the NBA hoping to get another game or two. Hope the "King" chokes again.

 

[depthcharge623]

No, Lebron didn't instigate the thing. Green was essentially setting a moving pick and then flopped after contact.

 

[depthcharge623]

Then there's the fact that this is obviously a recurring theme with Green.

 

[DrEss]

Not a fan of either actually, but I hoping Green would just point to the scoreboard when James continued his talking.

LeBron said today he's taken the HIGH ROAD for 13 years. Well except when he's straddled opponents, whined about the refs, criticized teammates, gotten coaches fired, and abandoned his team and city altogether (twice). Guess his high road is pretty low.

 

[Estes]

It you think the incident was spontanous you are naive, it was planned by cavaliers and green took the bait, if you think the approach is part of the game and clever by Cleveland you support James, if not you have to admit Green and the NBA review process is foolish

 

[depthcharge623]

Right, the Cavs planned on Green continually setting a moving pick on Lebron? You guys are delusional.... I don't even like Lebron that much. I'll cheer for him when he's in a Cavs jersey, but I don't love him. Draymond is a downright dirty player though. That's been the case long before he was on the Warriors...

 

[ahhculdee]

Nah. I'm a fan of Draymond because he's a spaz like me. I play pick-up basketball like him and people get scared of me.

 

[TC4THREE]

I do not watch trash basketball like the NBA but if you're telling me that another MSU player is acting like a thug I'm not surprised at all.

I thought I was the only soul cursed with the double whammy of Cleveland and Purdue sports. Good to know there are others.

 

[depthcharge623]

Nope, not the only one. It's rough...

 

[ahhculdee]

 

[depthcharge623]

Cool story, bro.

 

[Inspector100]

............ He knew he was on the hot seat because of the previous offense, all he had to do was not nut shot Lebron there.

I think he should have taken a deep breath in James' ear.

 

[nagemj02]

I was a little surprised to see the Cavs pull out the win tonight. James and Irving both had efficient, 41 point games, so they stepped up in "do or die" time. The Warriors are a great team, so I don't necessarily think the Cavs will have an edge at home for Game 6. We will see.

I wasn't surprised. The league got what it wanted. Baby BronBron the cryass was coddled again. I'm not a Green fan, but the whole mess escalated with the "Step over". He deserved the T-bag. He also deserved to be called a B!tch. And, I can't believe that big puss couldn't handle the name calling. Really? Being called that is over the line? Dude, shut up and play. Reggie Miller would have had him lying in a fetal position at center court if he'd had to deal with that level of trash talking. That guy was a stone cold killer. That is a guy who wanted serious respect and didn't cry to the media about them giving to him. He went out a demanded it on the court. Or trash from Barkley, Bird or Jordan. He's emotionally weak and mentally fragile. One of the biggest guys on the court, yet a huge wussy. I can't count how many times I've seen him toss a guy down, or in the heat of a moment shove someone....to see him back down like a girl when they retaliate. I saw him toss Nazr Mohammed down like a rag doll, then slid for ever when he was shoved back. Miller, Jordan, Bird, Thomas or Barkley would love to be as physically gifted as BronBron. I can imagine with the heart and killer instinct of those guys, with his physical build. It'd be like Wilt in his day.

 

[depthcharge623]

How do you know what Green said to Lebron?

You're an idiot.

 

[boilerzz]

How do you know what Green said to Lebron?

You're an idiot.

Uh, Lebron told Chris Broussard that.

You should definitely cry more while you talk about someone crying.

 

[boiler-deuce]

Yep, he's a coddled baby.

Angry internet man has gifs

 

[boiler-deuce]

The gift of independent thought and the ability to communicate it sometimes appears to be anger to those who disagree and can't respect dissent. Relax, it's ok. Group think isn't mandatory here.

 

[Gemini95]

We're talking about Draymond Green accumulating Flagrant fouls in the 2016 playoffs and you're ranting about Nazr Mohammed who hasn't played a meaningful minute in 5 years.

You are severely over-estimating your 'gifts' and 'abilities'.

 

[boiler-deuce]

Um, no "we" weren't . The topic was about the surprise in the Cavs pulling off the win. I decided to elaborate. Was I supposed to ask your permission? LOL. My GIF's highlighted the hypocrisy pretty well. Sorry if it bothers a Lebron fan that I think he's a coddled baby. Meh.

 

[Gemini95]

I don't give a fat frog's ass what you think about Lebron (or anything really), just try to be coherent. The League got what they wanted? Really? The league somehow turned all those Kyrie game 4 misses into Game 5 makes? Yes Lebron complains ("cries" if you prefer). Newsflash - they all do. Green has yet to commit a foul this year as far as he himself is concerned. Tim Duncan gives that stupid wide-eyed look every damn time he gets called for something. Attempting to single out Lebron by talking about the old days and showing Heat gifs just isn't going to get you very far. But apparently he didn't leave you a big enough tip at the Sizzler or something so whatever knock yourself out.

 

[boiler-deuce]

Yeah, you don't care. Thanks for the long winded bag of hot mess of not caring. Return to Lebron boot licking on your days off from regurgitating: "Welcome to WalMart!".

Yes. The minute someone mentioned the NBA.
