Draymond Green just wanted to give one quick postgame statement: “The agenda to continue to keep making me look like an angry black man is crazy. I’m sick of it. It’s ridiculous.”
Bro what?? You’re literally on the court with majority black players and nobody says this about anyone else. You are just a fucking lunatic psycho that can’t control your emotions. Trying to make it a race thing is such a cop out.
League is currently around 65-70% black? Yeah its not about race
He’s just always tilted doing shit
It’s especially frustrating when there is legitimately so much racism and bigotry in this country. Throwing around the accusation of racism when it’s obviously bullshit minimizes the examples of real racism in our society. Draymond, Perkins, and SAS need to knock this shit off. Stop fabricating racism for excuses, views, and clicks.
Besides ownership, the NBA is the literal one place when black faces are in literally every facet of the product. Dude thinks he playing for the San Jose Sharks.
ay the sharks got the only black gm!
Draymond is just massively out of touch. His ego and arrogance blinds him
Pretty much same thing happened with Shedeur Sanders in the NFL and people around him claiming he wasn’t drafted first because of racism. Of course, the first pick was Cam Ward - another black QB, but one who actually has work ethic and isn’t the poster child for his father’s delusions.
That whole thing was especially gross because they were implying Ward was drafted where he was because he was appropriately submissive to the White man, or some shit. It couldn’t just be that Sanders was a third or fourth round talent with a dad no one wanted around and a history of publicly throwing his line and defense under the bus.
SAS legit said Nash only got the job cause he’s white. Dude is racist and makes a ton of money off being racist.
White woman says she doesn’t want to lose her job solely based on her skin tone— deemed racist. SAS wanting every job to go to someone with matching skin tone— freedom fighter.
Blame ESPN they promote this shit in their phony activist headspace. I remember them posting that there needed to be more black players in the NHL. Not that they needed to promote hockey in urban areas, make it more accessible, etc. Just ignore skill (and Canada cause it’s not like hockey is big there) and just put people in the NHL if their skin tone is dark enough.
And got Td by a black coach for fouling another black guy.
Dray is a total idiot outside of the court
Outside?
I mean other than the dirty stuff he clearly thinks the game at a high level
Honestly disgusting. What a true pos.
We hate you because you are a fucking donkey shit human. Everywhere. On and off the court. Listen to yourself.
The worst thing about him is that he can control his emotions. Like the time he responded with peace and harmony when Beef Stew snatched him up.
He knows what he’s doing and when to do it. If there’s a chance someone might dent his head in or lay down actual consequences, he tightens up.
He’s just one of those antisocial donkeys who’s learned what he can get away with and revels in pushing past the boundaries most (decent) people aren’t willing to cross.
and to him, his successes just validate everything he does so he sees no reason to change it. “kicking people in the nuts earned me 4 rings, how are you gonna tell me i shouldn’t do it, do you have 5 rings?”

Draymond probably does need to do cognitive programming or something. It’s pretty scary that he is seemingly unable to hold himself accountable for any of his violent actions. He’s too damn old to be blaming others for his violent assaults.
Ha I mean he’s just a boilerplate narcissist, you’d be shocked how many people you know or are around are the same way. It’s also getting amplified today to basically be this way when you get called out, and why not? Look at all our leaders, taking accountability for your actions literally has the public looking at you WORSE even though that shouldn’t make sense.
It’s honestly infuriating.
There is an “angry black man” stereotype that black men (and women) have to tiptoe around.
This isn’t one of those situations. Draymond is clearly angry and violent.
Trying to say people have an agenda literally undermines the legitimate struggle many black Americans have to deal with.
Like fuck Draymond, seriously
Coco Gauff(a fantastic young tennis player) has talked about this several times. Her family and coaches stressed to her from a young age that she could never lose her temper on the court, no matter how valid it would be for a situation. If she is ever anything but respectful then her words will be dismissed as just being another angry black woman.
And she is the most respectful WTA player I’ve seen, but it sucks that she became that way out of fear of how people would view her because of her race. Then you have Draymond fucking Green out here elbowing people and running at refs screaming and pulling the black card when people call him out on it.
It has nothing to do with race. I’m poc and sensitive about racial issues, but this is not the case here when saying he has an anger problem and that he’s a dirty player.
In fact, the only player I can compare him to isn’t even black. He’s basically the next gen bill laimbeer.
Good player, especially on defense, who’s dirty and can’t control his emotions and resorts to unnecessary violence and also doesn’t care about injuring other players.
Actually both players tried to injure other players on purpose multiple times in their career.
Man I just don’t get it. If you’re going to elbow a dude in the head to send a message, just own it. Don’t get angry when you get caught. Just stand on business and be like “Yeah, I smacked you upside your damn head. And I’ll do it again.”
It’s like he believes his own bullshit.
I love the irony how this is what Dillon Brooks did in the last series going for the thumb and owned it. Draymomd of all people was calling him out and now he can’t own his shit
Draymond literally cannot accept responsibility whatsoever
Life must be so easy when nothings your fault.
As a warrior fan it’s bananaland how sensitive draymond is with this shit. When his headlock on gobert came up on Teagues podcast, draymond said something along the lines of ‘as a man why are you so worried about what another man’s doing’
Dray you choked a man on national television. It’s going to come up
He probably sees it as quite the opposite funnily enough. Life isn’t easy for him because everyone’s out to get him by painting him as an ‘angry black man’ just because he elbows people in the head, chokes them out, kicks them in the dick and stomps on them instead of playing basketball.
To add onto the list,
Don’t forget the dick kicks
Doesn’t Draymond have his own podcast that spends the majority of the time talking about what other grown men are doing as well? Dude is going full Kanye in retirement.
Babbling something about manliness seems to be his go to move whenever he acts like an out of control idiot.
That’s what makes him nutty in the head. He’s always like that and takes it SUPER personal like the world is gaslighting him or something. Delusional.
I always look back at that super dramatic 10 minute apology video/documentary after punching Poole as if he was the victim 😂 he genuinely believes this shit
He’s basically Trump.
We have Black Jesus. Now we have Black Trump as well.
For all Brooks’ faults it was nice to hear him admit he was doing that. Not like Kerr and Green who whine all the time and ignore Green’s behavior.
Brooks in real life is also a super nice guy, when he was in memphis there were plenty of people I know who met him and he’d actually stop, talk to them, and just generally be such a chill dude.
Turns out, the people just weren’t ready for the hero they need
I know a lot of athletes and two of the absolute nicest that I’ve ever met are two of the dirtiest on-field/on court players of all time - Bruce Bowen and Ndamukong Suh. I don’t know that I’ve ever met two nicer guys, never mind athletes.
Brooks just wants to be an old school hockey goon on the floor. It’s in his blood.
Dillion* is legitimately playing a role. This just seems like who Draymond is.
Outside of the NBA Brooks is super chill from everything I’ve seen as a Grizz fan
Edit: swip texting strikes again
Probably because its a canadian thing..
“Broke the code”
This shit is the most annoying part about Draymond. All the deflecting, gaslighting, and BS apologies about behavior he has never changed.
He’d probably be more liked if he was open about going out on the court to unapologetically fight and wrestle. Well as open as he can be without getting fined.
Get ready for him to replace Chuck and ruin Inside the NBA in like 3 years.
I’m not sure why anyone thinks he is going to be a positive influence on a show. I instantly turn off any non-game I see him in.
I’ll literally never watch if he’s on it
This is why the nba should have suspended him for punching Poole. They should’ve suspended him 20 games and maybe he would’ve learned
Why would he change? He keeps getting sucked of by media. His team continues to support him, the league lets him get away with everything, he’s apparently a part time commentator and other players seem to be okay with his antics. There is no reason to change when he can keep doing what he’s doing and there’s no real consequence
You can’t reason with unreasonable people.
I mean, say what you want about Dylan Brooks, at least he owns it.
Accountability is lost on the warriors
Wow didn’t know he’s the only black man in the NBA
Yeah if there’s one thing the NBA is known for, it’s discriminating against black men
TNT was actually defending him all they could lol
You always gotta defend your (future) teammates.
fr it was quite nauseating listening to svg
Reggie does it too. Then I started thinking, Reggie was kind of a prick on court.
Cause they see him as a potential media colleague. I freaking hate Draymond. I don’t understand his appeal. He’s like the Donald Trump of basketball to me. The only difference is he’s competent and good at his job
He is their co-worker…
Bro is a minority out there. He is being singled out!
Dear Draymond, please stfu lol
I think Steve Kerr is the only Asian and only Middle Eastern coach.
If you’re talking about Lebanon his parents were Americans living in Lebanon, they weren’t Lebanese.
Also Spoelstra is Filipino
Knicks also have Dice Yoshimoto, assistant coach. He ran the summer league team I think last summer.
living in Lebanon
That was the joke
Didnt know CTE was a thing in the NBA
He says while visibly angry…
And visibly black
I bet he’s even male
I’m not gonna check that one
There is picture proof out there, though
Thanks for checking
That big dick dray nickname went away real quick
Also looking crazy and maybe sick… in the head.
What part of the accusation is he denying? He’s obviously black and a man…are we supposed to interpret his emoting on court as pensiveness? is he placid?
It’s funny because the league is full of black players. Like bro it’s only you who gets these accusations it’s not a black thing lmfao
Like, people aren’t saying this about anyone else… it’s not because you’re black or male, it’s because you sucker punched your teammate in the face, tried to choke out another guy, kicked another guy in the nuts, etc.
runs at the officials, gets 3 inches away from their faces, and starts screaming.
he’s black he’s been through a lot
Give the guy some water 😂 hof scene
He’s flaccid, that’s why he’s mad
“Draymond said calmly”
Draymond did you elbow him so hard he thought he put his name into the goblet of fire!?!?
Punches teammate, choked player, kicks several in nuts, throws his legs on the heads of players on the floor, elbows players, yells in refs faces every game…yeah man real carbon copy of every black player in the league 🥴
He’s his own stereotype
I wish Steven Adams had given him a hiding (NZ slang for arse kicking)
No, that would make Steven Adam’s an angry Australian Black man
Haha true. Unless he just smiled and smacked him up? And he’s a Kiwi. Just saying.
So really more of an angry All Blacks man.
and another thing: im not mad. please dont put in the newspaper that i got mad.
Draymond about to enter his Kanye arc
Noooo we don’t need another Ye
I feel like this is exactly how he talks to refs when we keep saying he seems to be yelling and we are begging reft to T him up
Yeah if there was an “agenda” to paint him in a bad light, why the fuck would the refs be allowing him to scream at them in a way that literally no other player can??
that shit was ludicrous. he ran through the whole list of things you get a techhnical for in like five seconds. he stepped to the ref, he was profane, he was demonstrative and wagging his finger at them. thats why they always gove out those taytum style techs for clapping or waving your arms, there is literally a list and being demonstrative or profane while arguing a call will get you a tech more than just arguing. there has never been a more obvious tech in the history of basketball
He did the same shit pretty much every game of our series. In 1 game they even changed an obvious flagrant foul to a technical, just to avoid kicking him out because he already had a flagrant at that point. It’s wild, they just refuse to eject him.
Draymond complains about the media painting him as a stereotypical angry black man after giving them a paint with water coloring book to work with.
Wonder if he ever loses sleep at night thinking about how he single handedly closed 2 Warriors championship windows because of his fragile ego…
Some teams are lucky to even get ONE if at all
That doesn’t get talked about nearly enough.
Dray for sure cost the Warriors AT LEAST one more ring.
This is outrageous talk because he also helped get them some… by beating the fuck out of anyone in the way
Crazy people never think they crazy.
Always the victim somehow. Punched his teammate in the face and did a documentary. Was dissing KAT for missing a game against the Warriors due to funeral. Also choked Gobert and stomped on Sabonis. Fuck this guy.
Came back from suspension talking about how he’s going to remember the ppl that talked bad about him as if they weren’t just answering questions about his cheapshots
The worst bit about the KAT incident was watching Draymond play against KAT and proceed to get in his face all game as if he was the one who was wronged
He’s a raging narcissist and I’m praying for a popped achilles so I dont have to hear his incessant bitching anymore
🙏 popped Achilles and fade into obscurity. This is the timeline we deserve. Fuck draymond
emphasis on obscurity, no one wants to hear that donkey braying on TNT for the next few decades. nba national media is already bad enough, don’t make it worse lol
Generational talent is over used today. But this guy is a generational piece of shit
Generational good take
Warriors sub glaze this dude so much.
“That’s our Dennis Rodman! I’m glad we have a guy who is so passionate and watches out for his teammates like a family. Thank goodness we have someone with so much grit - it’s what’s missing in the league”
They were even praising a video of him punching and kicking and thinking it was funny.
It’s almost like he’s an angry black man.?
Elbows Naz in the face. “This narrative is out of control”
“it’s because I’m black” elbows another black player
Reminds me of that scene in Role Models lol
“What? Because im black, you think i did it?”
“No. Because you did it, is why i think you did it”
When Chuck D said “Fight the Power” he was talking about Poole and Gobert
I guess draymond is more black than naz reid so it fits the “agenda”???
Wtf is this guy saying, people don’t like him because he’s a yapper and a visibly dirty player.
And bringing it to a racial level because you can’t admit your personal faults is the most foul shit man, been 10 years of this
We’re all looking for the guy who did this!
I think you will find that Naz willingly facebutted Dray’s elbow.
#MOST SELF AWARE MAN IN THE WORLD
Does he not realize most NBA players he’s making dirty plays on and trying to fight are Black? The lack of self awareness is insane.
This is insanely selfish behavior
100%. Draymond’s making it worse for people who are actually being framed in a bad light
Very typical from a rich, privileged fuck
I genuinely can’t believe people defend this guy over and over again
I’m sure even some Warrior fans can’t wait until he retires. The entire league will celebrate… except for the refs, who’ll probably honor him in his final game by retiring his jersey. He means so much to them.
Insanely delusional behavior. Hard to be selfish when you’re so in denial
Come on bro 💔🤦🏾
Bringing out the race card for no reason is crazy. Bro is out of things to say 😂😭✌️
bruh I’m in actual tears. draymond has lost the plot 😂😂😂😂😂
insane statements like this just makes it harder for people who actually deal with issues relating to their race
Exactly. It’s such a shame too because man, you gotta think of the example you’re setting on the court for your kids at home. And yeah, the media can be biased and have double standards about black people, but saying that you’re the victim of it while acting the way you do..it makes a mockery of the whole thing.
As a woc, completely co-sign. While there may be some isolated instances where that narrative is pushed, Draymond, by invoking it here and intentionally making it seem like media coverage only has an agenda to push the “angry black man” agenda is particularly self serving. It really divorces him from the reality of his own conduct and only serves to absolve him of responsibility.
Meanwhile the Kerr clip a few posts down literally starts with him saying “I could see he’d gotten pretty upset…” lol
what did he name his son
Nick
A lot of people don’t know this, but Kerr is actually pronounced “kuh,” with a very soft “r.”
No no. It’s a Spanish name. You’re supposed to pronounce it while rolling the R.
Nick Kerrrrrrrrr.
The word gaslight is way overused today, but if you ever want a textbook definition of it, this is it.
He’s literally telling you that what you saw is not what you saw.
Litetally the definition of gaslighting everyone for years…
You are an angry black man.
As a calm black man, this imposter is NOT one of us. lmao
brother get some help brother
Narcissism isn’t curable, unfortunately. Doubly so when Kerr, the league, and the refs enable it.
Hit the nail on the head. He’s a narcissist, it’s the reason he so easily commits to denying any and all responsibility when it’s so fucking obvious to everyone else that he fucks up.
Draymond is an angry man, Draymond is a black man, the two things are not contingent on the other he’s just an angry guy who happens to be black
and violent
EOD? he’s an actual real life ‘angry black man’
This-coming from a black man
Lmfaoooo it’s hilarious watching him crash out like this.
This guy has the self awareness of an actual donkey
Hey… donkeys are much more self-aware than Draymond, thank you very much
We are seeing it all live in 4K. No agenda needed.
This dude has a montage of him literally doing nothing but fouling players, bro. He has to be trolling.
He might actually be dead serious lol
Shut up bum. I’m a black man your a joke and cost your own team plenty of times
It’s so crazy he keeps accidentally flailing into people. It’s happened hundreds of times he literally has the worst luck of anyone on the planet 😟. Praying for this strong brother tonight 🙏
Christ.
As a black man myself I must say this is so fucking pathetic
I mean that’s what an angry black man would say.
This thread is going to be glorious 😂
This the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time. I’m dying laughing right now. This is not a serious man lmaooooooo
If he was officiated fairly he would get a tech every game for the way he argues with officials
And the bummer is he is actually great at basketball. He doesn’t score a lot but his defense is elite and his passing is great.
I just wish we could appreciate his game instead of always talk about his antics. He does it to himself though
Hard to think if he sat in front of a shrink he wouldn’t be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder.
Dude we just want you to stop attacking other players
Bro is insane and mentally ill
Victim mentality 🤡
No one said anything about your skin color, Draymond
Draymond’s coverage is largely driven by how he chooses to conduct himself on the job. He has the absolute longest leash of *anyone* when it comes to the techs he gets versus like JT who gets a tech for aggressively clapping. The league acts to protect him from himself, including Adam Silver, bending over backwards and the league trying to rehabilitate Draymond by working with him and Klutch on the mental health angle last season.
While there may be some isolated instances where that narrative is pushed, Draymond, by invoking it here and intentionally making it seem like media coverage only has an agenda to push the “angry black man” agenda is particularly self serving. It really divorces him from the reality of his own conduct and only serves to absolve him of responsibility. Also, Dray, tons of successful men with families and kids have excessive anger and emotional volatility issues. Invoking stuff like this makes it seem like he’s looking for a way to commit the foul or offense and get no pushback or criticism for it. Sorry; not how it works. Either you reign in the elbow to someone’s face or you take responsibility for how it’s perceived.
Are we deadass rn
He says after elbowing another Black man in the head for no fucking reason lol
So therapy wasn’t effective…
Lol, you are, what a narcissist
The guy has such a victim complex.
Being a successful, educated man with a great family and being angry are not mutually exclusive.
I’m not familiar with this agenda, to be honest.
Either way, it sounds like he doesn’t have any good counter-argument, so he brings up racism, or something like that (I’m not familiar with the term “angry black man”).
Genuinely not trying for a “gotcha” here, but if you’re not familiar with the term “angry black man” you should do some research on the subject. It’s a really pervasive stereotype and it absolutely influences how black people are treated in the media, including stuff like crime reporting that has a tangible negative impact on the community
bro go fuck yourself
Should clip this statement to a montage of him choking out Gobert.
Says this while being angry.
It must be exhausting trying to defend this guy lol
So in his head, in an entire league of players who are mostly black, he was chosen to have an agenda to make him out to be an angry black man. That’s pretty unlucky.
Bro has the longest leash I’ve ever seen in pro sports in my life and is one of the dirtiest players I’ve ever seen and plays victim lol
But you are angry.
Anyone who has been around someone with anger management issues can see that Draymond has trouble controlling his anger from a mile away.
girl
I don’t even believe he is speaking in good faith anymore. The guy plays dirty. People said the same shit when Grayson Allen was cheap shotting folks left and right but Draymond does it dozens more times on much more televised games.
This will help to dispel that notion
Can’t wait for the day this guy retires. He’s so insufferable.
Did u punched Jordan Poole?
“Allow me to cheap shot in peace!”
What a fuckin clown. A clueless clown. Nobody is stereotyping him. He works in a majority Black environment and his repeated unruly behavior stands out as an outlier. He has painted himself as a person with no ability to control and reform himself. This is a Clarence Thomas “high tech lynching” bullshit strategy to get his non-Black critics back on their heels. Well, I’m a Black critic that’s sick of his shit.
No self awareness what so ever. Even Curry knows he’s a lunatic and just ignore his antics.
Fuck Draymond Green
Wolves in 5
Isn’t this the same guy that went to anger management for knocking out his teammate?
What a wanker
Never heard anyone associate his aggressive behaviour and lack of emotional control as a black man thing … because most NBA players are black and none of them behave like Draymond.
Also never seen anyone calling him dumb either because he’s clearly very intelligent on and off the court.
So is Dray playing the victim card because the heat is getting a bit much?
Thought this was r/nbacirclejerk at first
Steve Kerr had to sub him out while he was throwing a tantrum so he wouldn’t get a 2nd tech and get tossed.. So is he accusing Kerr of being a racist?
Dude looks like he’s on something
Then stop acting like it.
The NBA is 75% black and nobody is calling most players ‘angry black men’
It’s mainly Draymond bc he plays like it
“When I’m angry, you’re racist for calling me angry”
