    Draymond has had his best performance since Shrek 3.

    He has kinda been declined since 2017.

    But these last 2 games, save his still brutal shooting from deep, have been best he has played in a whiles.

    Should we gamble on Mr. LARRY SMITH REGRESSION or instigate him with a Shump Bump

    I await opinions

    Instigate, for sure. Because what's the fun in NOT lighting this chump's fuse?

    It’s the damn playoffs, you instigated anything and everything to win and fire up the crowd and the team. Play hard, gritty, and smart. Don’t cower or fold against pressure. The two Detroit teams, one with Billups and other with Zeke are good examples of what this team’s mindset needs to be. Last year’s team is also a good example with our 2nd superstar being out for Game 6 &7 against the Worriers and currupt Refs.

    There should be a focused, win no matter mentality.

    I've strongly believed for a while that while he isn't their best player he makes them go. I fall short of saying he's thier most important player but that team would look drastically different on both ends of the floor without him. He makes all the right passes, sets thier best picks, recovers and is good on help D. We know what he can do in the paint defensively and he blocks out with the best of them. The dude doesn't everything right but shoot (temper/personality aside).

    A facial is needed on that POS

    I am awaiting the facial moments just like last year series. We have gone soft with this a million dollar version of Harden. We need some serious facial to destroy the donkey.

    Y’all remember he pretended that he didn’t get dunked on last year

    Draymond is the best big man in basketball, which is EMBARRASSING FOR THE NBA. These "BIGS" today don't punish him on the post for being 6'7 and playing in that small ball line-up. They don't retaliate when he scratches guys in the eyes, steps underneath shooters or kicks people in the balls. The NBA IS SOFT and this guy gets away with murder because EVERYONE acts like they're afraid of him. Draymond is the best " BIG" in the NBA and its not close because these players are Wussies and the Rockets are embodying that in this series.

    Tucker could check him if Tucker didn't have to check another guy at the same time.

    part of it is also that he's protected while playing on the league's most promoted team. for instance, on 29 other teams he'd be ejected by the 1st Q w/ his antics. pretty telling during the last broadcast when reggie spent a full minute publicly lobbying the league front office to rescind donkey's 4th tech of the playoffs

    Draymond was gassed in games 4 and 5 when we won last year. It honestly felt like Tucker has out playing him, and that was huge.

    Golden State's starters are playing HEAVY minutes. We might be able to capitalize on that later in the series, but we gotta pull games 3 and 4 outta our ass to take it that far first

    Except if you retaliate against Green, it’s an automatic foul. Has nothing to do with talent level in the league.

    The best bigs are small because they are protected by refs. If you don’t like that, call up silver and tell him to stop bastardizing basketball.
