Kerr who feels the need to speak out against political figures is in constant support mode for all these violent acts that Draymond engages in. Double standards to the fullest.
Once the media litmus test is over, he will levy that consensus punishment. It's a PR punishment. If the media wants 10 games it will be 10 games. If they want 20 games it will be 20 games. The goal is to quell the media.
If Draymond Green is traded away from Stephen Curry, Draymond Green will get blackballed and his reputation becomes a Criminal from the Media. America's Most Wanted Draymond Green.
Joe Dumars and Draymond Green know each other since Draymond was a kid at Detroit. Joe is protecting Draymond way too much, too much Nepotism in the NBA.
Yes, but it's more than just the media. It's mainly the NBPA. Silver doesn't want to go out on a limb and he wants to avoid arbitration and polarization. The # of games will be a consensus decision between the parties involved: Silver, the NBPA and Draymond. I think it's safe to stay there is an informal agreement on a minimum number, perhaps 8-10 games; probably a maximum too. Look for all sides to praise "the process" after it's over. IMO, a big part is damage control.
I think it’s super super weird still that nobody cared for a DECADE. It’s not like these 4 recent incidents are the first 4, he’s had 20+ before the stomp/punch/choke/punch. Even after the stomp and punch nobody cared, he got ONE total game for those. I’m curious why this is happening now
Time to hang it up. Got his rings, his legacy is still decent enough and not entirely tainted as one of the best defensive players listed at 6'7, 6'8.
Yeah he's not actually going to get serious help, just like Ja never did. They will do this to save face and tell Draymond to cool it because it hurts the league's image, propose some type of specialist which Draymond agrees to for PR purposes and then come back after a few games. Even if it's 25, which it won't be. I could see 10-15 max.
