Fast Break ‏@GSWFastBreak 12m12 minutes ago
Qs raised over Dray's leadership in @SherwoodStrauss's piece ultimately just player dev issue. He's a natural leader, but can he be better?

its a fine line, hes def charismatic and models hard work well but on the other hand overly excitable is a very anti-leadership trait, hes at an age where ppl tend to mature a lot but also seems like his natural tendency is to rebel against criticism which its clear hes getting a lot of from management, also lets not forget hes a compulsive nut hunter

how is lagoon not banned yet first he likes football, then he questions the spurs, now he slanders draymond, when will it end

temecula

lol

guys basketball is starting soon

omg so pumped this season gonna be so flames

:]

also i def signed into about 40 separate ilx accounts just to FP lagoon into oblivion. probably only needs a few more. come on ilh step up.

i feed off the hate, the FPs

draymond is the worst

his game is p sweet imo (shooting aside)

he is p obnoxious tho in a way that wld be more ok if he werent the 4th best player on his team

i like draymond tbh, if i were a dubs fan i imagine it'd be like a "he may be an SOB but he's our SOB" situation

dray more likeable than both steph and klay imo

cmon steph is charming and klay is a v nice young man

klay is good

dray obv >> klay

in terms of being good at basketball

steph is an urban legend he doesn't actually exist so i can't judge him

anyone who thinks dray is better than klay at basketball shd be legally committed to an insane asylum

dray is an incredible fit with the dubs but his game is... extremely flawed, klay on the other hand has mastered the single most important nba skill and is better than most at the second, and just goes out there and plays great team ball and doesnt really make any mistakes, drays career peak prob gonna be p short too since hes undersized and depends a lot on playing super hard

theyre similar in that theyre both very valuable while also not cut out for being a teams best player

in conclusion dray shd be traded to the bulls asap

you know who cld play the dray role like one million times better than him, al horford

lol sure if by play the dray role like a million times better you mean be a little worse at literally everything except shooting

millsap would actually be a stronger argument

literally everyone thinks dray is > klay btw

literally worried abt yr sanity kev, r u getting enough sleep

no actually!

lol

the league is in the grips of an irrational dray mania which will be looked back upon, if its acknowledged at all, with bewilderment

i hope dray and kd have beef

remember when stojakovic finished like third in mvp votes, its like that

not looking forward to this board's flood of schadenfreude directed at this year's guaranteed-to-disappoint warriors :/

hella embarrassed to be a w's fan

imo they will destroy the league (if they dont have injuries [which they likely will])

literally everyone thinks dray is > klay

hallucinating?

if kerr plays any of his starters more than 30mins a game regular season he shd be arrested

not looking forward to this board's flood of schadenfreude directed at this year's guaranteed-to-disappoint warriors :/

in retrospect, the turn from constant mockery of the cavs and bron's #messybitchdrama and massive enjoyment of the warriors to embrace of the former solely to maximize schadenfreude regarding the latter was p stark and fairly quick here - certainly less so than much of the rest of the internet, who got all they needed the second lacob opened his mouth to go full techbro/#arrogantszn

i was def rooting against the warriors down the stretch and all playoffs on here

this is true, "warriors must be stopped" was your evergreen post

FTR, i am not judging either stance as wrong

i think a big part of the narrative turn was their on-court behavior suddenly becoming messy in the offs e.g. draymond's nut-hunting coming to light and steph throwing a tantrum or whatever that was

they got through the reg season pretty squeaky clean so it was harder for ppl to dislike them then

yea sloth otm here the switch was very quick, happened like after game 3 of the finals maybe? maybe even later. at whatever point it a dubs championship stopped being completely inevitable

i mean i am speaking for the board i was obv not a warriors fan though i had moments when i deeply admired them
