:mjcry: Curry has to be on god mode every game and play almost the whole game for the warriors to be in it

Dubs NEED Wiggins and Klay to come out hot next game

Honestly at this point dray is a liability because his defense isn’t even game changing anymore :francis:

Poole gotta stop over dribbling and looking for highlights and just hoop

Draymond would be performing at the same level whether he was doing a podcast or not. Ya'll really think he's suddenly going to be a different player just because he didn't do a podcast for 45 minutes in his house or hotel?
It’s really bad optics

It shows a lack of focus

And I’m sure the opposing teams get up bc of it. Makes it look like they’re not worth the attention. Not to mention he’s not gonna work on anything in the offseason. It also becomes a big media distraction. The NBA media people already asked him about it, and it was talked about a ton this morning. Immediately after g3, Zeke called him out on television. Not to mention the fan base is tired of the antics. It’s becoming a circus

But Draymond has been mid all playoffs outside of Denver, and game 6 of rd2 vs Memphis. He hasn’t been pulling his own weight for 3 rounds now. We were fed up when he was playing to the crowd in Memphis. That was 2 rounds ago. I think we’re all just tired of the antics of a player who has Shown for over half a decade that he’s not interested in improving. It’s come to a head, and he needs to fukking fix it immediately

Poole actually gets dribble penetration, then stops on a dime like he forgot he’s playing basketball.

The fact is Draymond is a 32 year old undersized big man with a good amount of mileage on him. He was never that athletic to begin with and he's lost a step or two which is a double whammy. He's regressed offensively every season since they got KD so people pointing at the podcast as the reason for his lack of scoring or just overall decreased effectiveness makes no sense to me. This is just the player Draymond is now. This thing about bad optics is bullshyt imo. If you saw video of him practicing his jump shot for 48 hours straight after game 2 would you shyt on him less for his performance in game 3? I doubt it since you even shyt on Steph when he's not hitting his shots.

I know Magic is Lakers fam for life but he should pull Draymond to the side and tell him cut the goofy shyt out. Hell they could have a 4th ring by now. If Draymond doesn't get booted in 2016. He always on some stoopid time.

It's like a student who has all the potential in the world to take the next step academically and set himself up for life. Yet he says fkxu studying and plays video games the week of the test and regrets it 10 yrs later. Draymond better hope clutch stays doing well. I see breh launching himself out the league. He's at the A.I. Sprewell school of fkcu it.

Nah it’s bad optics. Its been a bad look all playoffs. The issue with draymond is (aside from the podcast) is he isn’t facilitating, defending, or rebounding. Not to mention he’s fouled out of 2/3 games. To run on a podcast after that is a bad look. I’d understand if I was the only person talking about it, but I’m not.

And I’ll shyt on Steph when he’s not playing up to par. Like last game I said his foul on Smart in transition was supremely dumb. It’s not only about shooting. If he does something dumb like foul a player unnecessarily, I’ll say something. If he has 2 dumb turnovers that swing momentum (like last game, and g2 in the 4th quarter of Memphis) I’ll say something. That ain’t changing any time soon. He’s not a cult leader or Mohammed. He can be criticized.
