You would have polished Draymond’s dome chanting about his “fire” if he’d kicked Beverly in the testies and got ejected in the first quarter. Be just a little consistent once in a while, not because Durant cares, but for the sake of your own credibility please.
Apples and Oranges.
They have different roles as basketball players. Greens responsibility is the fire, is the edge, is the antagonist, is the defender and vocal drive of the team. Kevin's is NOT that person. Kevin's is to score the ball and be the basketball playing savant that he is. Durant has the mental maturity of a 12 yr old. Watching him fall for the bait from a dude half his size was like watching a grown man try to impose himself on a toddler that had annoyed him, even though he was winning the battle quite comfortably, all because he called him a "poo face".
Yes yes, Draymond can be an ass hat, and tip toes the line constantly, but that is the reason he is as successful as he is, because he has very limited talent. Kevin Durant is a basketball savant, he doesn't need to get into a barking match and then boil over the top when he is winning against a fiery hobbit.
Wow, and you actually managed to do exactly what I predicted and polished Draymond's dome while excusing his idiocy in response to the exact post where I predicted said dome polishing. You have become a
Steph picked up a tech against Beverly for the same nonsense earlier in the year and yes, it's dumb no matter which one of them does it. Draymond doesn't get a pass for being always extra-dumb.
Yeah OK Sleep, you want to call me out for whatever reason suits your agenda, go ahead I don't give a ****. What KD did was childish and immature, if Draymond did that I would call it out also, same with Steph, Klay, Kareem, MJ, Bill Clinton, Margaret Thatcher, whoever, noone is immune when they do what KD did. Durant SHOULD receive scorn from it, just the same way Lebron, Steph, Harden, Giannis, all the best players in the world should when throwing their dummy out of the pram like he did.
I know Draymond is an ass face on the court, I know he is constantly threatening our success with his outbursts of idiocy, but I accept it because it's all part of his product based on the limited tools he actually has. I don't accept KD, or Steph, or Klay, throwing a tantrum like Draymond would, because that's not their role, they don't need to, they are too talented. Draymond's there to get under the skin of the other team, like Beverley just did yesterday. That personality HAS a definite role in the NBA, just ask Phil Jackson about Rodman and he'll agree. You don't assign that role to a superstar offensive guru though, not hard to understand, and I have no doubt you DO understand this concept, but are just choosing to have a little snipe at me for whatever reason, of which I don't give a **** about.
Carry on though, you're frustration of my enjoyment out of Draymond Green is quite amusing.
