I wonder if there was a league wide memo that Draymond's famously long leash with the refs has been snipped. I certainly hope so. The amount of times this dude would SCREAM at refs for MINUTES and not receive any kind of consequence was mind blowing.
He’s also the absolute KING of the moving screen, would love to see that called on him more often too
Seems like it's still longer than the average because I'm pretty sure a lot of players would have gotten ejected for the stare down after the semi-intentional foul. Literally started playing defense like an ape daring the refs to call it.
They've been conditioned to let his antics slide so even if that memo went out, which giving the tech might suggest, they're still not ready to start ejecting him for it. It's like that asshole friend everyone has, they just say "oh that's just Draymond" and when outsiders point it out, there's still time for them to fully get it
