He was a great player, but his antics this past season should have gotten him banned from the league imo. Now I’m forced to watch him in a commercial every playoff game, and they’re making him an analyst? He choked out Rudy Gobert like he was in the UFC this season and now I have to listen to him talk shit about Rudy in the post game analysis? WTF IS THIS BULLSHIT. I give my respect to the wolves fans that chanted “FUCK DRAYMOND” because that piece of shit deserves it.

In general, I don't like networks featuring active players as analysts. I always take their critique of other players with a grain of salt because they are all competing for the same roster spots. They can hate on a team all they want, but remember: the reason that an active player is working as a play off analyst is because their team lost and the team they are critiquing did not.

But yes, Draymond is a dirty player. I do think he is not Andrew Bynum (who actively injured other players) but more out of control than Metta World Peace.

The one that got me is his recent interview on Shaqs podcast where he admitted he thinks fighting the best player on the other team so that they’d both get tossed was a net positive for his team. He talked about it like it was a legitimate basketball strategy and not what a loser would do.

Not just losers. Dennis Rodman is in the Hall of Fame. The 90s were a different time. Many of Green's antics would have ended up with him getting beaten up.

Back then they’d let it go and it was more similar to a hockey enforcer role. Pomeranian Green isn’t defending his guys, he’s deliberately taking their best player out. What a shit cunt, as we say in my country.

Honestly I turned on the pregame and the Draymond lovefest turned me off from watching the game.

vote with your eyeballs, turn off the tv when he's on. all you can do.

He's got terrible takes. I don't like seeing his face or hearing his voice. Why is he in television? Only good thing about Inside the NBA going down is that we won't see Draymond on it.
