I don't see them the same at all. Rodman knew MJ was superman. Now he may have not felt the same about Pippen. But he clearly knew MJ was the man.

Draymond sees himself right there with Steph and Durant...it is the whole reason why he tried to make a play at the end of the game when he should have just given the ball to Durant. Do you think Rodman would have tried to go win a game in that moment? Hell no.

Draymond is the biggest thief in the league right now.

John Wall makes almost twice as much as Dray


There we go with the he is shitty simply because he is hurt logic.

A healthy John Wall is twice the basketball player that Draymond is.

I thought we were talking about stealing money

Guys get hurt. That isn't stealing.

Isn't it sort of disingenuous to say "we don't need you" after kissing his ass to sign while he played for another team?

Draymond begged the guy to sign with GS.

Goddamn dude is Judas

Some bullshit "facts"you happen to spew

You’re not wrong and either am I. From everything that’s been reported by credible sources Draymond called Durant immediately following the 2016 Finals loss. He wanted him on the team and actively recruited him. It’s also true that they sparred and Dray said “we don’t need your bitch ass to win” and that was true as well, they won without him, Durant never won without them.

Draymond set to make 30 per nextyear. Worst contract in the league.

Disagree. Not going to go digging for the quotes but Dray has definitely called Steph the best player in the world more than once. I think he thinks of him Steph and Klay as a trio and got tired of Durant’s
Diva shit.

They’re gonna come back with a vengeance next year. It’s going to be fun to see them against the LA teams

Nah they were recruiting the guy during the season. Think it was for about 6 months as I recall.

Again its bullshit to say we don't need you after kissing his ass to sign.

They most certainly "needed" him to beat Houston. They also needed him to beat Cleveland the year Kyrie was set to leave.

Well nothing is stopping him from taking a front seat this year to the tune of 8 ppg , 6rpg, and shooting 38%. Those are Dave Corzine numbers.

Yeah. He took this year off. Truthfully he might be done. I’m very interested to see how they do next year if everyone is healthy. You just can’t tell me 2014-2017 Draymond wasn’t an awesome fucking player every bit as deserving of the title champion as his teammates.

You won this by Thanksgiving. :lol:

To be fair tho if Steph was healthy the 8 seed would have been attainable. It’s not taking much to get that 8 seed.

That’s nonsense. Nobody would criticize Rodman if MJ and Pippen missed the entire 98 season and the Bulls won 20 games total. What criticism does Green deserve?


big difference. Rodman never claimed to be a star, or acted like he was the engine to the team. He knew his place. Green doesnt.

Draymond has got a little Horace Grant in him.

I like that Barkley is constantly workshopping and evolving his Boy Band joke/analogy.

Barkley was a bad man.

I wish he and the Suns could have won the title in 99 after Jordan. Would have liked to see him win one.

This is an interesting take. Nearly everyone gave the nod to Malone.

Karl Malone was the best power forward ever but Barkley was more versatile.

Yeah you probably would get more people that preferred Malone. At their best and particularly early on I'd have taken Barkley in a heartbeat. I was never particularly high on Malone. Barkley was much more skilled as a player than Malone.
