Respectable actually.
Wet like I’m
Just two competitive guys going at it, hate when the media tries to make it more then what it is

Good Booker moment.
Fucking zebras ruined it by tossing Klay
But how will this support the narrative that Booker is soft and has no class. I’m so confused
He told Klay “Steph likes Poole more”
People hating on this guy don’t realize how good of a guy he is off the court. He respects the game
Haters finding it harder to hate on DBook lately.
People are gonna find a way to hate on this too lol
Wonder what Klay’s gonna say
Classy response from Book
the guys involved in the “fight” care less about it than anyone currently arguing here
We all like this
i mean this is the same guy who yelled “i ain’t got no friends” after beating two of his better NBA friends, i expect nothing less of book than to talk trash on the floor and be normal off of it
Somehow /r/nba will demonize Book for this
I came here for chaos not civility and peace 😔
Anyone who thinks Booker is a frontrunner is dumb. Dude is all class with his trash talk
He also dapped up Luka after game 7.
So many other soft hardos like LeBron, Klay, Paul George dont even shake hands but love talking all that shit.
Great answer
People will still find a way to hate on this, they always do
This is one aspect of Devin Booker that doesn’t get enough attention. He has a lot of respect for those who came before him and for NBA legacies in general. The respect he routinely shows for Phoenix Suns play-by-play radio announcer Al McCoy really solidified that for me.
Klay is my fav player but he’s cooked for this. 😭
Didn’t break the code
I feel like Klay was having a shitty game and knew it, let a few Booker trash talks get into his head and spiraled from there. Klay’s always been kinda sensitive with criticism at times (like the omission from top-75 and then going after Ronnie2K for his 2K rating) and I think it just tipped him over the top.
Going “ringz” in the 4th game of the season is kinda lame though
Devin Booker is so good at talking shit he keeps going through the post-game lmao
sounds like nobody needed to be tossed. maybe we coulda had angry klay and a game that lasted past the 3rd quarter
He’s right
Well goddamnit if that is not the perfect response, sounded super genuine as well. Good guy Book. Might even root for him as an MVP candidate if it ends up going his direction later in the season.
i tell ya, i really don’t get the hate for book. he’s just a dude trying to win games. he’s incredibly talented, great scorer. i feel like i’m missing something here.
This place is going to melt down quicker then lava if the suns make back to the finals or even win the entire thing
Good answer, good answer!
(Family feuders applaud)
NBA fans acting like it’s always gotta be nothing but pure hatred between players off the court will always be hella weird and my least favorite part about nba fans lol
Both Klay and Dray have the same underlying catalyst problem that is manifesting in other scuffles lol
MVP.
Thats a great answer to be honest
man i love how draymond claps when theres trashtalking happening
Chris Haynes reading off his phone. Amateur stuff right there.
Big W for Book
Thats our guy
Just two dawgs going at out there, it’s all in the game for them. Zebras were on the dubs ass this game though. Made a fun and competitive game into a dull whistle fest. I don’t wanna win like that. I’ll take it, but it doesn’t quite scratch the itch.
That was cool. Just two super competitive guys going head to head. I love his response.
It’s almost a bit shocking to hear a player say something level-headed and reasonable like this. I was expecting some kind of snarky dig
Keyboard warriors (no pun) who have never played basketball are distraught by normal on court basketball behavior!
He talks like Obama
I almost busted a nut reading thru these comments. I mean, most of em seem to be Suns flairs, but I hope more people start coming around on Book. He’s a joy to watch and he has 0 drama off the court. The amount of hate he gets is absurd.
