I'm real good with what he said. Draymond says what the whole NBA thinks. Pelicans are super talented but fold under pressure. Pels have got to start learning lessons and responding.

They are hampered with roster construction .... really need a big dog in the back (prime Boogie) but teams will continue to apply pressure, particularly so in high leveraged games.

If Draymond Green had been drafted by Orlando or Washington he would basically be a journeyman in the league right now. He lucked out to happen to be drafted by the Warriors right when they began their climb to greatness thanks to some future HOF teammates. He is a certified POS & always will be.

I remember when Shaq joined the crew and at first it was rough, and so many said Shaq ruined it and they were done with the TNT show.




Shaq wasn't a hated figure before joining. It just took him some time to figure out how he fit in.
I don't know who actually likes Draymond, other than idiot Warrior fans. I don't care how he'd fit in, i simply wouldn't watch b/c i can't stand him and i do not care about anythign that comes out of his mouth.

And yes the NBA on TNT is just about the best thing about the NBA, and that's b/c of Ernie and Chuck. When those two are gone, it's going to go downhill real quick.

You want Silver to fine or suspend Draymond for this? ?


Thats what you took from that?

No, all i want is for the NBA media is to actually give constructive criticism.

They have tons of guys that offer none of that. They just dont respect the market so in turn they trash everything about it. Its not just us either.

Not a great look to have a guy like Draymond Green do this...

My issues are 2 fold. Had this been someone like Steph Curry, id have less of a problem with it. I mean my god man, charles couldnt get 1 minor compliment without someone needed to degrade this team

Liking him is irrelevant.

Caring about what he says is what matters. This thread shows you how much people care.

He'd do well on the TNT crew, whether you watch or not.

Do you like the TNT crew and their show over the years?

THat's it, that's the truth. Pels fans are just mad because someone said something negative about the Pels. Nothing less, nothing more.

Its not it...at least not for me. All i can do is speak for me.

I literally posted under my OP a way Dray could comment and it would be fine.

How hard is this. Gets the same point across and its not just a cheap shot.

"This pelican team is playing well right now but they have a lot to prove in regards to making the post season and competing with the top teams."

Who cares what Draymond says or thinks. He's entitled to his opinion, albeit misjudged. For him to say that, coming off the worst defeat to the Pelicans in Warriors history is amusing. But HE didn't play in that game? Draymond is NOT a difference maker against us. Zion will abuse him with speed and his athleticism.
Only way he realistically competes against Zion is if Zion is not aggressive.
Draymond is a blowhard. Kudos to a hall of fame career, but NO ONE cares what he says and the game is won on the court.

What he said is also fine. Nobody in the world outside of Pels fans care one iota.

What he said is more interesting, better for drumming up interest, as this thread proves.

Yea, and I think that's the thing, if there was ever a place for a dude like that, alongside Shaq & Chuck kinda seems like the perfect place.

I'm just really annoyed that tnt still gives this dude a fricking platform. Espn has all these fricking idiots like perk shitting up nba talk, but tnt was a last bastion of legit players talking ball imo. Even dwade and some of the b squad was better than ESPNs crap.
