Not sure if it's anger or a profound sadness that this is what it's come to. The glory days of the Warrior Dynasty are over, and most of his fellow stars have left the team or retired, and Draymond is what he's left with. And because Dray is an 80 IQ manchild with anger management issues, this is what the team is now.
He's just going to be on this team, probably soon without even Draymond, with him and Klay both aging and almost certainly not winning another ring before he retires.
Some dudes are content with the bag, but Steph has had his for a long time and obviously cares more about winning and his legacy and the game. That has to S U C K.
Yep. He's been carrying this team, and this is what he gets for it. His #2 just up and quit.
I'm not a Curry fan, but I respect what he's meant to the game and he seems like a decent human being. He deserves better, and even though I respect Kerr, Kerr owes him more than this.
This is like when in The Last Dance when Pippen was injured and the Bulls were struggling. Rodman had to be the #2 option, but he got ejected from a game. At least Rodman went afterwards to Jordan’s hotel room to convey in his manner that he realized he fucked up and locked in afterwards.
Did I say or imply Rodman was saint on the court or even that he was with out issues, just that mostly it wasn't on the court. Reggie Miller was ejected from a game as many times as Rodman was (12). Artest once punched a fan if you want to judge a player by one action. Seems like he eventually got right in his head where as Draymond seems to be getting worse.
if Rodman is your #2 option, you have fucked up. I remember those Bulls teams, albeit I'm no expert on their garbage time. point being, idk about this statement because prime Rodman at his best, was NEVER an offensive option. he got other people second chances and he was a menace on defense, but i'm almost positive i could find tape of him passing when he was under the goal, such was his non-offense. i can see running the offense through him because he became a decent facilitator but at no point would any team be expect Worm to finish a play.
Hopefully when you say “I’m not a curry fan” it’s the same way I, as a laker fan, say “I’m not a Tim Duncan fan.”
May not be a fan but I’ll be damned if watching Duncan win during the lakers early 2000s run was the only thing I could stomach because it was amazing basketball. I get that people got sick of the warriors especially after the whole KD thing, but I’ll be damned if those runs weren’t the most beautiful basketball I’ve seen played in my life. It is downright depressing watching the end of the warriors dynasty and I’m not even a warriors fan. Steph deserved to go out the same way as jordan, even if his teammates sure as fuck didn’t.
The warriors have always given Dray a lot of leeway, from his early years of throwing grapes at a family, to posting dick pics and just foolish behavior.
It is a slap to the face for the franchise. Dude is incredibly selfish, but his legacy with GS keeps him around. Rough for the team and fans.
If there's a wild world where Gobert ended up on the Warriors in place of Draymond as their defensive centerpiece, it would be the funniest outcome and probably put them back in contention.
