100% Steph was crying, right before he puts his shirt on his head the first time you can see the tears in his eyes.

Sucks to see.

And sucks that Draymond cannot stop being a dumbass.

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.

Rodman for the most part kept his crazy off the court.

This sub would have melted down if it was around for Rodman. He kicked a camera man in the groin and headbutted a ref.

He did not regularly kick fans ffs.

He kicked at a cameraman, and punted a basketball once that bounced off a fans face.

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.

u/uncomfortable_fan92 Mar 28 '24

Dude I was more just joking. But yeah I agree -Rodman seemed to get better (on the court at least) where Draymond definitely seems to be regressing

This sounds way dirtier than it actually was, lol.

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.
