How u gon sell a call by swinging a 360 degree angle swinging with ur fist lmao 😂

[@truebridges7053]

I am honestly tired of Draymond Green’s unprofessional and dangerous plays. This was 100% intentional. I do not believe his apology. Further this is “unmanly.” Doctor Brian Sutterer , a sports doctor already did a video about Green’s chokehold of Rudy Gobert. In the doctor’s view the “MMA” chokehold applied in the NBA was dangerous to Gobert’s life. Draymond Green is a dangerous player and does not set a good example for the NBA. This guy needs a very but I mean a very significant suspension. As a fan, given his “dangerous to life plays” I would ask for a 15 game suspension.

[@H2ObarryField]

He also need psychotherapy

0:40 After he lamely and completely falsely mimics spinning away from Nurkic's grabbing... reporter's Q- "How'd it look to you on the replay? "If I go look at every replay, it's not going to look good." That's the closest he'll accidentally get to admitting anything. First thing he does if he thinks he gets a bad call, is twirl his finger TO LOOK AT THE REPLAY... to get to the TRUTH. This lack of accountability is over, Draymond. Grow up.

[@rizzioni]

his answer to the question about the replay is to say replays always make it look worse... well then the NBA has a problem bc they replay all flagrant fouls.

GREEN BELONGS IN THE 80S ERA OF BASKETBALL HE WILL DEFINITELY TRIUMPH

[@TrinkBruder]

He turned his head before he spun and his eyes and mein directly were facing Nurkic a full second before he struck him. Was this ballet? Did he turn his head facing directly to Nurkic before his body to sell the foul and inadvertently hit him when facing him with his whole head before his body for a second? Did he merely Pirouette to sell the foul not get dizzy while spinning by modifying the spin so his head did not match the turn of his body to face Nurkic to make sure selling the foul did not involve hitting Nurkic? Sometimes lying helps, sometimes it makes things worse. In Draymond's case probably going to miss a few more games than he would have for lying

[@jordankennedy2540]

Draymond should celebrity fight since he be having so much passion to hit people all nba fans will pay to watch it
