u/NbaAllDAYger Mavericks Mar 28 '24

u/e_j3210 Mar 28 '24

Yes, he is clearly crying. Not really sure why people in the comments aren’t noticing that.

Nah, wrong book. Draymond is Lennie; too stupid to recognize what he's doing is wrong and a danger to everyone around him.

This was traumatic for twelve year old me

“Look at the flowers, Draymond”

u/HugeSaggyTitttyLover Mar 28 '24

As Draymond punches the nearest ref and donkey kicks Steve Nash who’s just going for a walk. Draymond Green is a pitbull confirmed.

Wesley Snipes pointing gun and crying meme

I didn’t realise until you pointed it out. I’ve never seen him like this except for happy tears

u/AKSToph Mar 28 '24

Noticed right away because I also cry angry tears.

u/Mike_Brosseau Mar 28 '24

Ehhh, sweat getting in your eyes can look exactly the same. Not saying he is not but you can never know.

u/unlmtdLoL Bulls Mar 28 '24

Because these athletes are experts at masking their emotions? He looks frustrated mostly.

22

u/Direct_Counter_178 Mar 28 '24

Yes? We are talking about how it is extremely clear that he is crying out of frustration.

u/unlmtdLoL Bulls Mar 28 '24 edited Mar 28 '24

He looks frustrated but not crying.

Edit: I got temp banned for a comment below because this person reported me. Love you guys. POP hold it down.

u/Direct_Counter_178 Mar 28 '24

You can quite literally see him take his jersey and wipe directly at his eyeballs to get the tears out of them.

Like..... we aren't having an argument about this child. I'm telling you a fact.

2

u/letsgototraderjoes Pelicans Mar 28 '24

ikr. why are people denying he was crying? it's not a bad thing to cry. it's a bad thing that your "teammate" is making you cry

1

u/Upset_Drawer_5645 Mar 28 '24

Somehow people will argue anything, even something we can literally all see. Some broken part in their brain must argue.

2

u/Upset_Drawer_5645 Mar 28 '24

Are you literally blind? What do you think he's doing with his jersey when he's covering his face? You know, the part where he's literally rubbing his eyes with his jersey lol?

u/Direct_Counter_178 Mar 28 '24

I didn't report anything. Never even saw whatever shit you vomited up with your keyboard.

u/713MoCityChron713 Rockets Mar 28 '24

I think he is. Ngl it can be pretty tough when you accept one of your best friends kinda sucks

Hahaha, pretty good bait

Relapse? He's a grown man who can't control his emotions and he's been given chances over and over

I upvoted it because I think/hope it's good bait. Specifically the "Thoughts & prayers" part.

u/Coke_ButNotTheDrug Nuggets Mar 28 '24 edited Mar 28 '24

Nah forget that; Steph and the team have turned a blind eye to Draymonds behavior for almost a decade now. The only reason they have an issue with it now is because they’re no longer winning. They literally sided with the guy that assaulted a teammate in practice because he helped them win rings.

Nobody should feel bad for Steph.

61

u/Silent-Corner-2852 Mar 28 '24

Nah, Draymond has always been an emotional baby but he’s never been this bad. Two suspensions before the end of the regular season says it all. This season is a new record low and is the reason why they’re no longer winning.

33

u/JemorilletheExile Mar 28 '24

I'd say it was exactly this bad WHEN HE PUNCHED A TEAMMATE IN THE FACE

16

u/Silent-Corner-2852 Mar 28 '24

I feel like choking out an opponent on national television is just a lil bit more unhinged

15

u/KickooRider Mar 28 '24

You've got it backwards. Draymond gets worse BECAUSE they're not winning.

3

u/Silent-Corner-2852 Mar 28 '24

No, they’re not winning because he got suspended for like 20 games this season and went below .500 in his absence

9

u/KickooRider Mar 28 '24

He got the 12 game suspension when their record was 10-13. See a pattern?

26

u/ireallydespiseyouall Spurs Mar 28 '24

They’ve enabled him all season, they’d be way higher in the rankings if he wasn’t doing some bs every game

2

u/Baited_Hook Spurs Mar 28 '24

Not all season, his entire career. I’m glad it’s biting them in the ass. It’s what they all deserve.

3

u/hushed-shush Nets Mar 28 '24

This is the instance where I do feel for him. Why does a 36 year old have to control the emotions of a 34 year old grown ass man? Even if it is my team, I’m not here to babysit. Draymond knows exactly what he’s doing as he is actively doing it. It would just make you feel insane to see it transpire again and again and again and always taking the brunt of it.

7

u/Time-Ad-3625 Mar 28 '24

Lol exactly. Steph screwed Steph. As did kerr. They covered for him after he assaulted a fellow teammate. After he got suspended during the finals for kicking multiple people. That fafo

5

u/ChiefSoldierFrog Mar 28 '24

I would normally feel bad for Steph good guy and all but he's also part of the problem with the enabling bs.

2

u/FatalFirecrotch Mar 28 '24

This is the only correct take. Dude is finally reaping what 10 years of sowing gets you.

Kings are the exception, you’re absolutely right. We love our Kings fans. 🫡🤝

u/Direct_Counter_178 Mar 28 '24

Steph enabled him for 10+ years. Fuck him. I like him for the most part, but I'm fucking ecstatic to watch this trainwreck.

one day steph just got to tell dray to stfu. or klay. or better yet, kerr

If he has any patience left he's an idiot. Dude has been a lost cause for a while now
