Gobert gave his take on the incident, telling The Athletic's Jon Krawczynski and Sam Amick the following regarding Green: "It was a long time, and if he knew how to choke it could have been way worse. His intention was to take me out."

This quote is hilarious but already included in the post from 4 hours earlier

You could tell Draymond wasn't trying to sink the choke in. Gobert actually sounds stupid here.

[–] triclops41@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

He's making fun of Dray publicly because he knows Dray is a thin skinned bitch who will soon be going on his podcast to to lie and gaslight everyone.

He's fucking with Draymond, and apparently it's working on you too.

[–] Content_End_5183@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Gobert really said, "You should have aimed for the head".

[–] JimmyWasRight@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If you get choked out on national television by your arch nemesis, I guess the only available response is "shit was weak tho"

[–] -Gremlinator-@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

he did not get choked out what are you smoking.

Appears you know just as much about choking as Draymond.

I didn't see him tap

[–] NotTopherr@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Draymond is insane but I don’t think he wanted to make gobert pass out or worse.

[–] vixgdx@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Really? Are you sure?

Punched his teammate Poole cuz he was jealous of poole contract, stomped on sabonis in a pivotal playoff game, kicked Steven adams in the nuts TWICE, swipe lebron on the nuts in a pivotal nba finals game, called his teammate KD a bitch and cost the warriors that game for not passing the ball, and a whole lot more.

This guy does everything with a purpose. It's well known he hated gobert for a while talking smack about him on national media and his podcast due to gobert getting a big contract and winning a few dpoy from him. This was fully intentional in my mind.

[–] AdhesivenessHot4040@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Gobert talks a lot for a guy who gets routinely exposed in the playoffs

[–] Amargaladaster@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It’s on the front page.

[–] BorisDirk@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He should have said "Draymond is old now. If he remembered how to choke like in 2016 that would have been worse."

[–] UrbanJatt@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

🤣🤣🤣 that's good

[–] JrueBall@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Getting choked out is one of the least dangerous things that can happen in a fight. Almost all the time the person who got choked out is completely fine afterwards assuming you didn't crush his wind pipe or hold on for a while after he passed out.

[–] rick_32@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Yooooo... I love this!

[–] dandatu@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Lmao holy shit. How long of a suspension for draymond?

[–] Delusional_Donut@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

They’ll roll a d6 with all ones on it to determine the length of the suspension

[–] mommadotco15@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A slow, disapproving shake of the head.

We’re lowering your minutes next game, Dray

[–] Thebasedgod_lilb@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Wow a Warriors fan that isn’t defending Draymond and talking about how the whole league has it out for them

draymond tried to kill me and everybody saw it

[–] _rymu_@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Draymond “Derek Chauvin” Green

[–] pistoncivic@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's clear his objective was to sever the head from my body and dunk it through our basket...luckily for me he failed because he's ugly and stupid and can't do shit when Steph's not around cause he's a bitch

gotta show up in a neck brace next time we see him

[–] BetweenTheBuzzAndMe@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

LeBron would probably actually do this tbh

[–] dosequismachina@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

On some Andy Kaufman shit

[–] Nubras@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Show up in a wheelchair, neck brace, and with crutches. Then get wheeled to center court by ant, where he “miraculously” gets up to shake hands and reconcile with Green. Rudy extends his hand shakily, and as Green accepts Rudy hits him with a stone cold stunner. He then gets on his hands and knees and cusses him out to his face while La Marseillase plays.

[–] Fr0_oz3n@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bored with this topic already

[–] Sweet_T_Boh@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Please let these two meet up in the playoffs lol

[–] FallacyFrank@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

If Draymond had actually tried to choke Rudy rather than just holding him it would’ve been much worse for sure

[–] actual_yellow_bag@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

lol, 'If Dray didn't suck so bad he might have actually hurt me.'

[–] bajcli@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I know everyone hates on Draymond, but maybe he wasn't, you know, ACTUALLY trying to strangle another dude to unconsciousness live on national TV?

[–] rhc34@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

If it was anybody but Dray… sure.

[–] Benjamin018@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Restraint is not the first word I think of when describing Dray.

[–] Gamerguy_141297@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just like he wasn't ACTUALLY trying to kick Steven Adams in the nuts or ACTUALLY trying to kick Kyrie in the neck or ACTUALLY trying to kick Herb Jones in the face or ACTUALLY trying to elbow Harden in the throat or ACTUALLY trying to poke Lebron in the eyes or ACTUALLY trying to jump stomp Sabonis's chest. Should I stop here or list the 40 other offenses? Insane to try give him the benefit of the doubt

Kick this clown out of the league and be done with it. It won't make the Warriors any worse or any better anyway

Last time he really choked was 2016 Finals

[–] stereoreal2@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Draymond is an angry person and extremely violent. Kerr and the NBA are babying him and they'll own future violent explosions by Draymond for it.

[–] Le8ronJames@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Next GSW-Wolves game is gonna hit record number of viewers.

[–] Dubonthetrac@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Oh my.does gobert really think dray was trying to choke him? lol

[–] Spike94515@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Keep cookin Rudy‼️‼️

[–] elecorby@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly the more Gobert talks about greens perceived intention, the worse the league is going to go down on green. Now that theres a quote saying "his intention was to take me out", with video evidence of very unnecessary chokehold, the league cant go "wuz akkidnt, 1 game suspns" without huge backlash

[–] KingOfWeTheNorth@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

NBA: "Because Draymond Green made no reasonable action to harm, as admitted by Rudy Gobert, he will simply be served a $25,000 fine."

[–] mommadotco15@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Rudy said he didn’t hit the spot

[–] JasonPlattMusic34@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Doesn’t that almost seem like a compliment to Dray? Not exactly A-list trash talk there, Rudy 😛

[–] PooperJackson@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Draymond is so unlikable he makes Gobert an r/nba hero. Let that sink in.

[–] m0nkeyhero@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Draymond’s next pod gonna be with Ted DiBiase to learn better technique

[–] Jabbajaw@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

lol. You see the look on Rudy's face when he was dragged like a doll??? Hahahaha!

[–] bigsharsk@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Dray's stupid antics are really making me like Rudy more and more haha.

[–] RedditUser538xxx@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Why do people hate gober

[–] HeiTonic@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The amateur didn't even put his hooks in.
