Draymond Green punched Jordan Poole: He apologized and will step away from the team a few day's

[NYC Rebel]

This ain't 25-30 years ago no more. Video and social media has changed the game. Poole is ON FILM for MILLIONS to see him getting slumped.

Hearing MJ punching Kerr is not the same as seeing the shyt and how it can be spread INSTANTLY to MILLIONS as it can nowadays.

It’s crazy that it has to be explain to people.

He rocked him, but Poole put his hands on Draymond first. You don’t shove someone and not expect some physical pushback.

eh, Draymond walked up on him and went chest to chest with him. He definitely initiated the physical contact. Poole pushed him off, more of a defensive thing than anything.

Seum tough guys love talkin bout how battle ready they are. nikkas some losers

nikka talking about the streets like we still 15

 

[KFBF]

Typical warriors scumbaggery. Won’t get talked about because they get along with the media. Disgusting.

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Defend what, exactly?

It's not my place to defend anyone in this situation, nor does my defense for Draymond or anyone have any relevance to what will likely happen. The Warriors will deal with this as they see fit, both parties will move on, they'll both play this season (on the same team), and everyone will forget about this in 1-2 months.

Na Screech this is all year no differently than the KD dust up was

Lol some of u nikkas grew up really rough. If u expect a teammate to slump u at work during practice.

 

[Piff Perkins]

Nah. Nope. Poole should make a trade request: it's either me or him.

 

[Rekkapryde]

U can tell who has scrapped in their life and who hasn’t itt lmfao

exactly. when you and someone get in that chest to chest position and someone pushes off, hands go up immediately.

Some reactions around the league...

 

[RennisDeynolds]

So he definitely kept hitting after the punch right?

Like on some stomping shyt bc why would he keep approaching after the slump?

 

[Don Homer]

Social Media won't let him.

or players from opposing teams

the trash talk in between free throws...

Nah son, Draymond got in his face and Poole pushed him off. Dray overreacted like he usually does.

Did you miss the part where Draymond came up to Poole and rammed into him with his whole body? Imagine that sweaty mouth breather with his stank breath touching you, who wouldn't push him?

eh, Draymond walked up on him and went chest to chest with him. He definitely initiated the physical contact. Poole pushed him off, more of a defensive thing than anything.

I’m aware of all that as I have eyes. Poole put his hands on Draymond first. And it wasn’t a sly shove, there was force. Draymond shouldn’t have done that, but that’s what happens when you put your hands on someone. I don’t know any other world where you put your hands on someone and don’t expect some reaction.

I think it was over the top too, but I am watching it on video and not actually in the moment.

I still don’t think this was a big deal, but the Warriors seem intent on not paying Draymond so it is now.


edit: on rewatch, didn’t originally notice the body contact From Draymond. Take back what I said.

I feel like Jordan Poole’s response (or lack thereof) says a lot about the suburbanization of the NBA. The NBA is no longer a league full of rags to riches stories with guys who came from the inner city.

This is the NBA I grew up on...

 

[Street Messiah]

i can deal with most insults but not anything physical that goes overa some pushing and shoving

if i was poole im not fukking with green anymore

also team needs to punish him severely, striking people...come on this is a professional enviornment

this is a whole different animal now that there is footage. it's one thing to report two teammates got into it at practice vs a video of one sending the other to the floor with a punch for the world to see
now Poole probably feels embarrassed. he will always feel a way about draymond now. this shyt could lead to a him or me situation.
