    2-3 games my prediction and can we never compare this guy to Rodman again?! Rodman was maybe dirty, he was, but nothing like this.

    I hope he gets at least 10, but I suspect he gets away with 3-5.

    as a repeater of issues, if he got 5 games for his gobert incident, I'll go with about 8 games suspension

    I don't mean it in that way. What I am wondering about is what about him gives him special privileges. Why isn't he getting serious consequences? Why is he allowed to berate refs?

    I think he's either diagnosed with something and they're treating him like a special-ed kid or he's connected to people that protect him. People talk about how he wouldn't get away with it if he wasn't playing with Curry, but I don't know about that. I'm always looking for the conspiracy, though.

    The NBA has been very soft on player on player (or coach) violence. Spreewell choked a coach and the team wasn't allowed to terminate his contract. I think Draymond punching Poole with little repercussions has basically told Draymond there isn't a stiff penalty for hurting other players. His comments after the Gobert choking basically let's us know he's fine with getting suspended for a few games if he's allowed to hurt someone.

    The Lakers (LeBron) are number 1. And I want to say it's by a decent margin.

    You could be right either way.

    If he was on the pacers his entire career you think he’s allowed to do this? No shot in hell

    He would follow a similar trajectory to Ron Artest if he was on the Pacers. Maybe it is a league problem handling these hyper-emotional players.

    Artest didn’t have nearly this many incidents though, and got way bigger punishments. If green followed the artest trajectory he would’ve outa the league around 2016-2017

    If only something could be done WITH THE LAW. By God assault is assault whether you're on the basketball court or in the street is it not. I wish someone had the guys to press charges, especially that Gobert one. Draymond would be seeing some time in jail for that $hit.
