NBA - Main

Basketball is my favorite to sport to watch and has always been one of my favorite to play. But i grew up playing hockey more than anything else, so hopefully that explains the anger in the comments I'm about to make... I'm sure this opinion will be unpopular regardless:

​

Every top rated comment here is something along the lines of "he should be suspended more so he learns a lesson" or "he should be suspended more cuz of these comments" or "nothing will work besides a lifetime ban but the league would never do that".... Additionally, in other posts about him, ppl have made comments about "He's putting players in the danger, the league needs to stand up and actually do something!!!"

Look, Dray is an asshole. He's pissed me off repeatedly along with the rest of you. But acting like he is a danger to other players and that he should be suspended for 10+ games cuz he put something in a chokehold is crazy. NAME A SINGLE PLAYER WHO WAS ACTUALLY INJURED BY A MALICIOUS IN-GAME ATTACK FROM DRAYMOND GREEN!! Go ahead, I'll wait.

​

He's an ass and he's violent and he wont learn his lesson. That doesn't mean he needs to be kicked out of the league. How fucking soft has everyone gotten? Also this herd mentality shit where it seems like everyone either decides they like or dont likes players at the same fucking time on this subreddit is beginning to really annoy me. I feel like there used to be discourse, a mix of opinions, acceptance of nuance, etc. Can we not agree he has some redeeming qualities? We used to love him on this sub and nbadiscussion for his hustle, tenacity, winning plays that dont show on the stat sheet, etc. I agree he has started to become more of a burden than a benefit to the Warriors but is there no nuance left in the world? Jeez man.

He got a pretty fair punishment.
