    This was expected. He just 360 punched nurkic for no reason. I dunno how even the most bias warriors fan could watch that video and think anything different. There was no reason to do anything he did. Nurkic barely even touched him.

    This "indefinite" suspension could be a cop out by the NBA. Perhaps instead of making a firm decision and opening themselves up to criticism, scrutiny and arbitration, they decided to let the wet finger in the wind determine when Draymond is allowed on the floor again.

    Just a thought.

    Damn the counseling - get this dude out of the league. Either that or go find somebody like James Johnson, sign him, and take his ass out for the rest of the league. lol.

    Wow. This is the right thing. Keep him out until he's ready. Going to be a long way since he equated his problems with everyone else's in last night's postgame interview. Wish him well.

    "indefinitely" could end up meaning 3 games.

    Wow, does Silver actually have the balls to make it a long suspension? Indefinitely can be long or short. To me, it sounds like they don't know what they want to do, and that's worse than actually handing a definitive long suspension for someone that has long deserved it.

    Give me a ****ing break. Is anyone stupid enough to buy in to this bullshit? The "challenges he's facing"?!?! The challenge is that he (and Klay) aren't who they used to be and he can't accept it. So he just keeps acting more and more of a clown. He needs to grow the **** up and get over himself.

    Wow. Maybe Silver FINALLY grew a spine when it comes to Draymond. That said, "indefinitely suspended" could mean anywhere from a few games to a lot of games.

    When Myles Garrett went ham on Mason Rudolph with his own helmet the NFL suspended him indefinitely. That was basically 4 months so 6 games and close to a $1m in fines.

    Adam Silver is basically a eunuch in a suit so I’m sure it’ll be nowhere near the equivalent. I say he’ll be back before the New Year.

    I recall he had a problem punching people in the nads when he was who he used to be. Whatever his problem is, I think it predates your theory.

    Sure but these incidents are happening with greater regularity. And I think that's because of his fading abilities.

    There needs to be a minimum number of games + a bunch of other punishments to get the fans to take this **** seriously. Anger management counseling is a joke and won't mean crap. He needs to be suspended like 15 games and fined extensively. Or the league could just press charges against him and sue him for damaging their product.
