Kenyon Martin was on Gilbert’s podcast and said he approved of Draymond choking out Rudy because Rudy should’ve been grabbing his own teammate instead of Klay.
Doc Rivers said the same thing last night during the broadcast.

Maybe Draymond just really is that tough :manny:
I want to see him go at Embiid or even a Jokic type. I'm struggling to even think of any modern goons in the league right now, even the Morris brothers got exposed. I wish we could see Draymond in the eras where people really got busy. He not that big, would he have had the same energy with dudes like Rick Mahorn who knows
That's the issue...there are none. The league is super safe now. You don't get points for acting tough in a safe place. And he ain't really acting tough. Never seen him actually square up...it's all sneak shyt. He ain't have that energy with Beef Stew or Zbo and Tristan checked that chin.

You're being disingenuous by pretending he couldn't have gotten around Rudy and stepped to the front of him without a whole lot of effort. He snuck behind him and choked up while talking shyt the whole time.

This wasn't outside. You'd be right as fukk if it was outside rules. I wouldn't say shyt if this was in a gym or a park, but ain't no fights pop off in the NBA in the way that he needed to react the way he reacted. If this was at the park the nikka in Ant's position is taking his head off. If someone did this to my boy at the park I'm breaking my right hand on his head, but this was a NBA game. It's as corporate as it gets. Ain't no one messing up their game checks on a real actual fight especially not Rudy Gobert.

Folks tried to give him the same outside rules grace when he punched Poole too. Minnesota ain't got no rep to start no shyt either so he knew he'd be safe from them anyway. He won't try that shyt against Miami. That's why it's about him being a fake goon.
Rudy could stepped around Klay and grabbed his guy and none of this happens

Kenyon is hilarious to me. I wanted Shad to call him on his contradiction but I guess he didn't peep it.

Kenyon: GRAB YO TEAMMATE! HE SHOULDA GRABBED HIS OWN TEAMMATE!

Also Kenyon: We had a preseason fight against LA back in the day and a assistant coach grabbed me. After it was over, I told him if I'da got hit I was coming for yo ass for holding me!

IMO, sports brawl etiquette dictates you never grab/hold your teammate when they fighting for that exact reason. You always go for the other guy so your teammate can get his shyt off. Kenyon just don't like Rudy lol.

You're making it seem like these dudes only get paid if they win. Also I'm pretty sure teams have no problem paying a player's fine if their player is being fined for doing the right thing.

Dawg, it's an 82 game season. You can afford to take an L or 2 here or there, and if that loss comes with teaching the rest of the league that, moving forward, if you take liberties against us, there's a legit price to pay, you best believe it's worth it.

I'm sorry but basketball fans can't have it both ways. Y'all get defensive if someone calls your league soft, but then defend your guys on some "bu bu bu suspensions" when they all prove to be a fresh bag of marshmallows when shıt starts to get real.

Also, anyone calling a bunch of dudes from opposing squads hugging aggressively with zero real punches being thrown a "brawl" is a legit fakkit.
Draymond ain’t getting paid for the 5 game suspension. You have to be in control of your emotions otherwise you are going to make bad decisions. It ain’t about being tough or soft, dudes out there for their basketball skills not fighting skills. Your ego will always deceive you if you on some primitive animal shyt all the time
