Less, but I still think Draymond is better.

That's just a team makeup thing. They don't have a Draymond, but Boston seems to excel at some of the things that Draymond brings to the table. But if you take off IT and add Draymond, I don't know where the offense will come from.

A. I mean, I've already provided two examples of him arm barring another player in a non-basketball related way.


Ok so two plays. One being a still image.

B. I'm sure he's gotten the reputation due to various smaller things that you won't really be able to find gifs of, like dirty screens and the like.


This is just my opinion but I feel as though if he was as dirty as people make him out to be there would be a plethora of easily available evidence to pull up.

quote:

C. Once again, I never said I was boiling down his career to one play, you insinuated there was nothing dirty out there on him, I provided the Love play.


I did not insinuate that. The first thing I posted in here was asking for links. You posted a well known play that unfortunately resulted in an injury. That was all that had been posted when I made my initial comment about him playing for four years. The Lopez picture was posted after, but doesn't really weaken my argument of there not being a ton of evidence of Olynyks dirty play.

quote:

D. Nothing can be more bullshite than saying that play on Love was not dirty. And it's laughable to say he was trying to "propel himself forward"


Agreed. That part of that post was total bullshite.

He also said that he wished the Cavs were playing better competition. Because the Warriors are playing world beaters right now.

What kind of point are you trying to make? Do you think the Warriors have more or less wins after a 1-for-1 trade of IT and Green? The teams aren't constructed to make a player swap of a score first PG for a PF.

His game is to be a stopper on D. He's really good at that. He's not the type of player that will carry a team on the offensive end. Unless it's assists. He can dish some dimes. There is a reason they run so much action through him.


He is good, but he is not one of the true super stars. People are try to make him an All-NBA player.

He has the most offensive firepower in the league to carry him. This makes assist easy and the shots he gets easy. He also is not having to carry any weight as a true two way superstar.

Someone said he is the second best defender in the league. I call absolute bull shite.

Players like Leonard, James, Butler, Davis, and George are forwards that play elite defense and they carry the offensive side of the floor too.

So what's the magic number of plays to be provided to you, the Celtics fan, that will meet the threshold of dirty player?

You just think it's some witch hunt that multiple people in the media have called him a dirty player?

It's ok to acknowledge you watch Boston games with green glasses on. I'm not gonna argue anymore with a biased Celtic fan.

Why even make that comment? What's the point?
