[Poole] Draymond says he expects to play on 10/18 opener and ring ceremony. Also conceded he doesn’t know if he will play. ‘That’s not been decided.’

    Warriors have no backbone if he’s on the court.

  2. paddiction

    Warriors are a bitch organization if they let Draymond step on the court

  3. Theingloriousak2

    The warriors are a weak ass organization if they don’t suspend him from games

    This same fan base and organization was crying about banning other players injuring their players, now what

  4. Playbookof3li

    Draymond hit Poole so hard he thinks he’s a reporter now

  5. shellfish87

    He is just brazen. It’s clear he doesn’t think they will do anything.

  6. Warriors PR team needed to do a better job than this. They shouldn’t have had Green do this press conference if he wasn’t going to give better answers.

  7. ThisAnswerIsLit

    Having this tweeted from Poole makes it a little confusing

  8. shellfish87

    I thought this franchise knew about “the code”

  9. MyUntimelyDeath

    It shouldn’t even be a debate. Not only should he not play his ass should be traded.

  10. MyLadySansa

    Should be suspended for 8 games ala Portis

  11. LiverpoolPlastic

    I want Draymond punished coz he’s a fucking moron and let the team down again. That’s my reasoning.

    But there’s people out for blood on this sub who don’t care about Poole’s safety or whatever. They just want to see the Warriors torpedo their season.

  12. He’s getting suspended. The warriors know how bad of a look it would be to give him no suspension after the world has seen that video.

  13. -assets-

    I don’t think he should be playing. Regardless of “taking time away”

  14. nicklovin508

    Bob Myers came out the other day and said Draymond would NOT face suspension. But now that we’ve all seen what Draymond actually did they’re going to suspend him? That’s sooo soft it makes me cringe. Should have suspended him from the start

  15. gochuuuu

    If the warriors dont suspend draymond for this, they will set a precedent for future punk bitch moves like this to be allowed

  16. IrritableIchthyosaur

    If he shows up, the crowd should chant “bitch” and throw shit at him.

  17. sayqueensbridge

    I didn’t even think about this, they def aren’t banning him from the ring ceremony

  18. Saturday514

    Wait, would it coincide with Lebron points record breaking night? Oh no

  19. GrayBox1313

    The nba has to suspended him for a decent amount of time. The Video is too damning. The nba can’t set a precedent that players can just physically assault each other with no repercussions. Plus the Warriors are Defending Champs and class of the league. Terrible precedent if he walks.

    I dont think people should compare this situation with Bobby Portis punching Mirotic, IMO it’s more similar to Blake Griffin assaulting the teams equipment manager back in 2016.

    In the Portis/Mirotic fight, Mirotic was the aggressor. Griffins vs the staffer on the other hand was very similar to Green/Poole in that they were talking/joking/arguing before one party assaulted the other party. Furthermore Griffin and Green both attacked much smaller individuals than themselves.

    Strangely enough, Portis was suspended 8 games while Griffin only got 4 (though he did miss a bunch of games because he broke his hand in the assault).

    Draymond should definitely be suspended IMO. Whether that includes opening night at the chase center isn’t really that important to me, I’m more interested if it’s going to be 8 games or 2 games.

    IMO it should be 7-10 games.

  21. DoughRaymi

    if poole and dray and the team sort this issue out then who cares if he gets suspended, they the ones playing with each other not y’all

  22. DistanceAlone6215

    Give him a 1 year ban from the league

  23. Don’t let him participate in the ring ceremony, that’ll teach him.

  24. Soft-Rains

    Who’s going to tell Poole when he wakes up?

  25. milksteakofcourse

    Dude shouldn’t play a game this season

  26. throwawayjoeyboots

    The Warriors and the players continue to be out of touch douchebags for caring so much about “the leaker”.

    But holy shit r/nba has been so disingenuous and overly dramatic about the whole thing. Like a bunch of teenagers in here who want to give Draymond the death penalty.

  27. Turk0luu

    They should bring Draymond in to find and punch the leaker.

  28. ShotTaker

    What’s to decide? There’s no information to gather. Typical corporation putting the story out, letting the public chew on it for a week and then holding their finger to the wind to see what would make them look the best.

  29. HyuggDogg

    Perfect time to trade him. Solves the salary cap issue.

  30. It could easily be argued this is worse than what happened in Boston. I have no confidence that GS will apply an adequate punishment to Draymond for this.

  31. NippleNugget

    The warriors should really teach him a lesson and trade him to the kings

  32. Aggravating_Impact97

    Glad the warriors are letting draymond green decide on what an appropriate punishment for draymond green is. So far paid vacation is the start. Need to feel it out and see where things are after that. Hard to say. I’m sure him and the warriors will find something that works for both sides.

  33. Piratefluffer

    Kinda hope Pooles ego is as big as the rumors say and he forces this bum out of the team.

  34. darkness_escape

    If I’m Adam Silver I’m setting an example. Full season suspension for Green.

    20 games for Steve Kerr for saying the leaker was the issue

  35. Appropriate_Record36

    How the hell is he not in jail?
