When did Draymond say this?
Another Klutch leak, they really are running a terrible operation over there. Literally no one said Poole has been acting different except Draymond
Instead of making a humble apology, they just double down on the lie. He really is trying to get himself traded. Nice job Adam Mendelsohn
“You know what it is”might be the quote/smiley combo of the year

You still think Draymond is the source, leaking a detailed account of what happened (even days before the incident)?
He leaked it out right after the first reports through Chris Haynes
I see it now, the lettering is being changed through Coli language filters. Have to update the ‘y’ to an ‘i’.
Absolutely. If you notice, this account absolves him of all responsibility and (again) paints Poole as the villain, like he’s walking around acting like Antonio Brown.
Literally no one has backed this up (in fact they’ve said the opposite), and the only person who would/could benefit from that spin is Draymond.
Why does Draymond think it's okay to call grown men a "bytch" all the time?
That's literally fighting words in every city.
And like a typical bully, he only does that with cats he know doesn't want that smoke.
How bytchmade is it to get butthurt cuz a young breh is feeling himself? He earned his bag fair and square. What you the only dog in the pack that can strut around with your chest out and head up?
David West needs to come out of retirement and give this buffoon some straightening.

Of course Draymond is the fukking source of that tmz shyt. Even that report makes him look like a pocket watching bytch. 
Damn TMZ paid 2.6 million for that footage
It doesn't absolve him of all responsibility.
He still punched Poole.
The sources provided context to what happened, and Draymond isn't going to give out a detailed account of what exactly was said between them both, saying that Poole was calling his own fouls, and that he was creating friction with teammates. That is clearly the work of a third-party who witnessed all this. If Draymond was really behind the leak, Haynes would've tweeted more information at the time. This was most likely already in circulation among folks who were at the camp.
Draymond's ego wouldn't let him tell someone all this in the first place; if he wanted to share it, he'd do it on his podcast.
You're conflating two different things here.
First of all, the players shut that down of Poole "acting differently" because they're not going to let him hang out to dry, regardless if he was or not. These matters are kept in-house for this very reason. Given that Draymond and Poole have history, trash talking between them both has probably always been a thing, so the players are hardly going to single out Poole for a change in behavior, when he and Draymond are both going at each other on the regular.
Besides, trash talk during scrimmages and camp is part and parcel of a hoops environment, and no player is going be looking at somebody different over that.

If this is really over contract talk draymond a huge hoe. Hes made millions a hundred times over let the young lion eat too
You do realize there are people (other than the players) at these scrimmages, right, that watch them play? We really saying that he's responsible for leaking shyt to TMZ? Like he just suddenly decided this season he's gonna commit basketball espionage to sacrifice his own damn team?Of course Draymond is the fukking source of that tmz shyt. Even that report makes him look like a pocket watching bytch.

I keep seeing this narrative so imma just use your post to address it.Idk why yall keep calling it a sucker punch when Jordan Poole pushed him. Once you push someone, it's wherever the person being pushed wants to take it after that. And that's life, period.
Context matters. They are TEAMMATES at a basketball practice. I’ve played basketball my whole life. Things have gotten heated. I’ve seen shoving but I’ve never seen someone get slept at practice. So Draymond escalated it beyond a point that NOBODY, especially not Poole was expecting. You can tell by the others players’ body language that nobody is expecting a punch. It’s a very rare occurrence.
IF someone was to get punched in that scenario there’s usually a verbal warning followed by someone putting their hands up. Now it Poole shoved Dray after that it’s fair game. But Dray snuck him. It is what it is. It was dumb af and Dray gonna have to live with the fallout until this calms down.
Dray should’ve pushed him back then squared up. Then teammates would’ve jumped in and this would’ve all been averted.

Football is different. Violence is part of the game. I can only think of two instances of basketball players punching teammates Jordan and Bobby Portis. There’s a scrap in football practice every week

It's likely over a contract. He pulled a similar stunt with kd. He was mad kd wouldn't commit during the season and his contract talks were put on hold because of that. Same situation here. He clearly views himself as someone that should be getting paid near max money and to see Poole getting "his" bag could have him jealous. He's very important to the Warriors success but doesn't seem to understand intangibles and defense don't really get you a max in today's league.
