Jimmy Butler: “[Draymond] told Paul Pierce, you chasing the farewell tour. You not Kobe [Bryant], that’s crazy. That’s a crazy thing to say.”
-Kelly Oubre Jr.: “[Draymond Green] doesn’t really care about half the things that come out of his mouth.”
Look at r/NBA paint this out as negative when the players meant it as a compliment. The question is literally “who’s your favorite trash talker?”
Just shows Ant understands the game within the game but not the pull out game within the game
This sub expecting some massive fallout from the KD burner leaks when he’s probably said much more foul shit on the court to every player in the league.
trash talk is a part of the game. people talk crazy during high school games. all you have to do is go play at the y. it’s fun
Trash talk is fine, Draymond is great at it. He just gets lost in the sauce and takes it too far physically.
That shit was hilarious when it happened. One of the few times I sided with Angel Reese Draymond Greene
Its gonna be even funnier when Draymond starts his own farewell tour soon enough
Niang just climbed up on my favourite player ladder
I’ll tell this story every time but he peed on my girlfriend’s friend in the shower after they hooked up. Didn’t even ask. Just let it fly.
Ait that’s enough for me, first ballot hall of famer
He’s the GOAT, MJ and Bron would never
Well maybe MJ
name the ceremony after him
Props for the most outta left field, did not see that coming Reddit post.
Neither did the girlfriends friend
Bro do you know Alaina? Ahahahaha
Too creative to be false I believe it
Jellyfish stings can happen anywhere.
Just fyi urine doesn’t actually help with jellyfish stings, so no reason to ever pee on your homies really (unless they ask, of course)
if you actually want to fix a jellyfish sting, run hot water over it. it fucks up the proteins and they’ll stop stinging you.
the masculine urge to pee on a pretty girls leg in the shower. every man’s been there
Who said it was on her leg?
nobody. I’m making a separate point
Dam right it was all over her face
Who said she was pretty?
Everytime I think positively of Niang, I think of that moment when he was on the bench, Jalen Brown shot a three and was getting back on defense, Niang grabs Browns leg. Dirty play, can’t get behind Niang.
It was a hard summer thinking he was going to be on the team. Brad Stevens saved us again by shipping him right out before the season started. It was hard enough blowing up the team, he can’t put that on us too
We woulda been the pride of Iowa with Garza and Niang though.
Minivan
I like the 8 mile strat
Still a better farewell tour than Chris Paul somehow
As far as retirement tours go it went pretty well for him. A lot of old rivals gave him some fun moments of recognition.
That season also shows a big difference between Pierce and CP3’s legacy. Pierce came back for the one last retirement year but the team started going in a different direction and wanted to play younger players instead of Pierce. He didn’t make any kind of noise about it and was still happily on the bench talking shit to Draymond Green to defend his teammates. A first ballot HOFer and he had no problem realizing his time was up and focused on being a good teammate.
CP3 is also a first ballot HOFer but he got asked to go home because he wasn’t able to get along with anyone.
While I agree with your assessment of Pierce’s situation, we know absolutely nothing about the circumstances of Chris Paul’s dismissal at this point (other than random leaks clearly planted by the team), and the current-day Clippers have earned zero benefit of the doubt when it comes to management
Yeah I phrased it vaguely on purpose and I’m not meaning to let the clippers off the hook. I’m sure there’s plenty of blame to go around.
But just in terms of legacy, CP3 has been at the cent of locker room drama throughout his career and then it ended with him literally being asked to stay home rather than be a veteran voice in the locker room. That’s a big part of how he’s gonna be remembered.
Pierce is certainly not without his own faults but I’ve never heard a bad word from anyone about him as a teammate.
c/p is a know asshole though.
Coz Pierce was a far better player than cp3 .
Jeezz
You can’t honestly believe that.
Is Pierce a first ballot HoF tho?
I think the first ballot distinction is silly, but he got inducted so that isn’t something open to subjective opinion.
But if we are comparing Pierce to Chris Paul, Pierce was All-NBA 4 times. Three third teams and one second. Chris Paul was All-NBA 11 times. Four firsts and five seconds. Also 9 All Defense too, 7 first teams.
Saying Paul Pierce was better is laughable.
I 100% agree Paul is better than Pierce, but the All NBA thing has context. Pierce had to compete with Bron, Duncan, Dirk, and KG in his prime, and then guys like Malone and KD at the beginning and end. Getting a F All NBA was a lot harder than at G.
Nah CP3 def better I agree just honestly surprised people think Pierce is a first ballet lock. He’s def HoF tho
Pierce was inducted on the first ballot in 2021. People say it because it already happened.
God damn I’m old af why I think he retired like 2 years ago lmao
He already was?
Why is Dillon looking into my soul at the end like he’s Shang tsung hahahahaa
dude, never drops character like an old school wrestler.
His quiet ass serial killer voice in these interviews pisses me off😭
Lol exactly. I’ve grown to appreciate Dillon’s commitment to being the villian.
I also like that he gets buckets, but isn’t really seen as a bucket-getter. So I’m sure it annoys some players more that this guy “aint even nice like that” but he’s talking shit and has 20pts. Lol
He still annoys the shit out of me lol but it is pretty funny. I’d love for the lakers to knock the suns out of the playoffs and watch him run away from the cameras again though
In “court of gold” (Netflix doc about the Olympics), they followed Brooks around as the representative of Canada and they make him really nice in there.
Great vid lmao was this aired today
How does this comment have almost 100 upvotes? It’s just all bots now, huh?
lol why they fade in Brooks like that haha
Lol the fuck I didn’t even catch that first time around
Best trash talker is Kawhi
I would go with Tim Duncan.
Timmy would hit you with phrases. Got you. Almost. Nice try. - KG
That story is so funny because you just know it would piss off KG more than almost any other player.
The best trash talker was Diana Taurasi. 2016 Olympics, to Draymond Green, in front of the men’s and women’s teams, “how does it feel to be the only person in this room who’s never been double-teamed?”.
lol
“C’mon Diana, we both been with two women at the same time.”
The thing with Taurasi is, WNBA games don’t draw huge crowds. And she was not quiet on the court. If you had a decent seat, you could hear her talk. Didn’t need to be courtside. I remember the WNBA commissioner pulling her aside – might even have been in preseason – to ask her to please tone down the language a little bit because everyone could hear her threatening to fight the ref.
Another game, Jordin Canada is dribbling, waiting for a screen, and Taurasi is giving her the Rock come at me, bro wave with both hands mid-play. Or when Kelsey Plum was a rookie and Taurasi gives her a little high five, says, ‘hey, great to see you, Kelsey,’ then just sinks an elbow into her stomach, leaves Plum’s ass on the floor, hits an open jumper and winks at her while Plum’s lying there trying to get her breath back.
Probably the only person who got her to stop was Floyd Mayweather, who threatened to buy the team. The new generation of WNBA stars all learned from her, too; Caitlin Clark, Alyssa Thomas, Kelsey Plum, Cameron Brink and Angel Reese all talk enormous amounts of shit. Hell, Marina Mabrey kept hollering at someone last year that her dog was ugly.
To be fair, if she played with Steph, she’d never get double teamed either. Not even KD saw doubles while scoring 40 plus getting single coverage by Patrick Beverly. Heck france left kd and LeBron wide open and doubled steph. Wnba players need to watch their mouths, bums and buns
Oooh, you think you’re hard, dontcha?
Oh, I know it
Bird was king. He would tell them the play or what he was going to do and they still couldn’t stop him.
I bet he talks so much shit in his head
KD’s twitter escapades is just practice for his on court trash talking I see.
KD genuinely confuses me a little - I’ve seen clips of him being trash-talked on court by Ant, and now Niang, and he genuinely seems to respect it, like smiling and enjoying himself. It’s such a contrast with how thin-skinned he seems elsewhere.
My read on it is that he cares about public respect and wants to be known for his great accomplishments and not his faults.
Talking trash on the court is just a part of the game, and KD loves everything about basketball.
Just two different worlds and situations there.
its cause he respects shit talk from fellow competitors on the court but he doesn’t respect the opinion of fans and lets their jabs get to him
I dont think SGA like Ant’s trash talk lol
History though, best trash talker is Tim Duncan. Ask KG.
i’m hitting him with lateral movement, he can’t do anything
That was Hakeem not Timmy
look at my flair
I use “lateral movement” in my everyday life lol it’s so funny
All-time? Father Pat. His trash talk made the entire Flint Tropics team leave the court and forfeit.
Dillon Brooks doing his best Norman Bates impression with that stare 😂 corny af
r/nba has a line on who can and cannot talk trash, and that line is basically ‘do i like or dislike this player?’
So the same line as almost all of humanity? Real insights going on here.
Draymond said he’s from Saginaw Michigan like he’s Lefty Frizzle or something lol
meet me in temecula
Lefty Frizzle 😭
I would pay for a Jingles only mic’d up playoffs
Somebody is gonna try and put him on tv
Try? Bro was already on Inside the NBA
Jimmy Butler: “[Zion] told Lance Trenary, you chasing the farewell meal. You not Gordon [Ramsey], that’s crazy. That’s a crazy thing to do.” -Kelvin Benjamin.: “[Bobby Flay] doesn’t really care about half the things that go into my mouth.”
is that what Ballmer said to CP3?
Kobe [Bryant] lol
“He looks like a math teacher but can talk trash with the best of em” lmao
God I fucking love Kelly
I always wonder how draymonds career would’ve went if he got drafted to another team
Love that Ayo said Ant and now gets to play with him
Who was the utah guy telling if Ingles is still in the league sarcastically? Lol
“He’s still in the league right” lol
This is the type of NBA content I eat up
[Bryant] really added a lot here. and changing between [Draymond] and [Draymond Green] really made it clear which we were talking about….
It was such a good line tho.
Niang sounds like he talks trash like Rabbit battles in 8 mile…. I am white I do live with my ma….
Nothing will ever top Jordan Poole telling this bum that he’s an expensive backpack for 30. The greatest single line of trash talk ever. Completely rattled a grown man and made him look like an absolute fool in front of the world and ended the defending champs title defense in training camp before a single game was played. An out of control imbecile. Compare any other line of trash talk from she tastes like Cheerios to Larry Bird little white b*******. Nothing beats that single line. Nothing has been more fitting and metaphoric for any single player ever
PG Ant SG Niang SF Brooks PF Durant C Draymond 6th Ingles
50 win team i guess 😂
this is a PR tour for a guy who’s abusing players on the court. imagine what we don’t see. Imagine we didn’t see that leaked punch video of Poole
Saginaw Michigan💪
Does Dillon Brooks have a Wikipedia tattoo?
Why would you have to care about trash talk? It just has to work in the moments
i almost didn’t recognize dillon brooks without his nose red from all that rage
Pm
Where is this from ?
You meant Kelly Oubae
Draymond Green only uses half his brain but his whole mouth.
No luka??
Too busy arguing with refs to trash talk 🥀
That guy, is a WHINER
I think Luka talks back but he’s not the type to initiate it
He had Schröder trying to fight him in the tunnel
The goats (guys like Larry, MJ, Kobe, and Steph) talk trash because they know they’re unstoppable. Role players like Draymond, Stephenson and Laimbeer talk trash and play dirty because those are their only skills. There should be a clear difference when we’re ranking real trash talk- no one should give af about what the 4th best player on a team says to a generational star… I don’t think that’s a crazy take.
The Draymond glaze is out of control. Any of us on this subreddit could average 2 assists per game if we played next to 2 of the best catch and shoot players of all time… I’d be trying to kick people in the nuts too if I knew we’d be getting ridiculous shots even after I was ejected. It’s embarrassing that nba fans stick up for this loser.
Lol
Draymond’s kids hate him.
I wonder if Draymond, even once, thought whether he should say something before saying it.
The players that don’t talk trash are the scariest imo
Yea Ok…Draybum being Draybum
Wait the dude that assaults people in the league is respected? Thats wild.
I cannot wait until Draymond retires Mr. Triple single, the boy band member who thinks it’s all about him when he’s just a backup dancer
If he had been drafted by the hornets nobody would ever know his name
Easiest way to identify a casual.
Oh no, you think I’m a casual. Oh, whatever will I do. Unlike you, I actually played basketball competitively at a high level. You have no idea what you’re talking about. Bozo keep getting your opinion from Stephen a. Smith
Highschool is not a high level
Division 1 is clown
Sit this one out Todd
Is the D1 team in the room with us right now? Intermural doesn’t count, bud 😂
I think it’s funny that you’re trying to tease somebody who actually competed at a high level when the most competition you’ve ever had is to see how fast you can get off the couch and dust the Cheetos off your bulging stomach
What a sad, sad little man you are 😁
“She goes to a D1 school in Canada… you wouldn’t know her” 😂
Lol whatever you say chubby
indeed.
