[Charania] In aftermath of practice altercation, Warriors’ Draymond Green says he is going to step away from the team for the next few days. Green apologized to teammates on Thursday, publicly Saturday, and will take some more time to recalibrate.

1. “Next few days”

   Don’t be chickenshit, Warriors. Self-imposed exile for a few days doesn’t cut it for trying to turn off Poole’s lights.

2. >Step away

   So he got suspended.

3. Dude punched a teammate and got some extra PTO

4. Dray giving himself a much needed vacation after beating his teammates ass.

5. Step away all the way to Charlotte

6. This MF going on vacation. Warriors are actually moving like the local PD.

7. Sounds to me like a suspension given out without it being public to help him save face.

   OR he’s self imposing a suspension, and then when the Warriors suspension comes, he can say he’s extended his time away

8. Bro got a whole week off work and got to punch a co-worker

   American dream

9. really pathetic if the warriors dont suspend him

10. This mf getting a vacation after sucker punching Poole 😭

11. B I T C H E D

12. Reddit thumbnails for twitter links are undefeated

13. It’s not a real suspension unless he misses the first regular season game.

14. LMAO this thumbnail is perfect

15. recalibrate is a funny word, i mean this is just kind of who he is for better or for worse

16. Omg between the Gobert post and this one, we have been blessed with great thumbnail pics

17. So… He doesn’t have to show up to preseason games and practice like everyone else? Sounds like a vacay to me.

18. Gotta say warriors look real bad in their handling of all this. Zero accountability

19. Draymond “I must go now my home planet needs me” Green

    Draymond “Poochie” Green

20. Are the Warriors really not going to suspend him?

    What a bunch of bitches running that team

21. This is going to actually be insane if he doesn’t get suspended and they treat this mini vacation like a suspension. Makes the warriors FO look like a bunch of cowards if he isn’t imo

22. Draymond got the police PTO treatment

23. In the preseason of 1993, Bill Laimbeer broke Isiah Thomas’ rib during practice. The next month, he intentionally elbowed Isiah’s broken rib during practice. Isiah then broke his hand punching Laimbeer in the back of his head. Laimbeer wanted to retire after that incident because he was embarrassed, but the team (and Isiah) convinced him to keep playing. He eventually retired the following month because of injuries. I can’t imagine Draymond retiring while the team is still a championship contender though.

24. Hot take: it’s a good thing the video leaked. Shit like that needs to be dealt with properly and draymond should be held accountable for his actions

25. If I’m Jordan, I can’t be in the same locker room. All respect is gone.

26. Moving exactly like Police. First deny the gravity of the situation, once the footage is out go silent. Next step is coming out with an apology full of asterisks and then go on paid vacation just to come back and act like nothing happened.
    Bad look for Dray, worse look for the organization if they don’t do something about this.

27. Cool sounds like a police officer

28. How is he not suspended already? That’s assault brotha

29. So basically paid vacation? Even if suspended without pay, no way the Warriors suspended him for a chunk of the season. They want to win again.

30. Poor poor Draymond needs some time to recalibrate. You hate to see it.

31. If I was Poole I’d be more inclined to be like Jesse Pinkman to Walter after Hank caved his face in.

32. “You can’t suspend me, I’m away!” /s

33. Just imagine how hard this mf will punch if he actually has time to calibrate.

34. Fuck this bullshit. If it was a female staffer he’d hit he’d be gone. If it was a normal job he’d be gone. You can’t assault someone with a suckered punch and not face serious consequences.

35. “I think I just need some time at home. Look inside myself, be with my family and try new restaurants.”

36. I love to get paid, punch my teammates, and take vacations too.

37. Gotta ice them knuckles, they don’t just heal overnight.

38. How about fining Draymond Green half his salary, and donating to anti violence groups? Instead of giving him a vacation?…

39. somewhere in all of this, there’s a good donkey punch joke.

40. Recharge that right fist for when he comes back for round 2
