1. And joker is an exception to the rule he's not the rule because joker don't play all of these little mind games to get out of games like the rest of these players do

2. I get the impression that feeling fairly healthy for an NBA player is I only feel everyday like I was in a car crash.

3. Draymond All jokes aside You don't think kawhi Leonard has taken advantage of that on multiple occasions

4. And when you talk about having cake and eating it to what other profession in the world can you just miss days to be missing them and continue to get paid like Ben Simmons did come on man you can't have your cake and eat it too

5. Ja going out east plus Ad

6. Dray your country has 500 mil people. Do you know the population of the European countries you 've been destroying? I bet a European continent is close with the american population. Furthermore your 2024 Avengers team also was not dominant at all and they nearly lost in semis and finals. Also i know you don't take the fiba world cup seriously but you haven't won in like 8 year last 2 times you weren't even top 3 and thats in a 4 year span.

7. You solve the 65 game rule by having Joker take a tip and sit, or limiting his minutes through the year. The bigger problem is load management becoming a ping pong ball chase.

8. The other side of the load management problem is a family saving for months to get in some cases a once per year chance to see the millionaires play and then a player taking a vacation day. I saw all the greats play when I was a kid, hell I played 18 holes with Kerr just after the Suns drafted him. But I can't afford to see Dray and Steph play live and so I never have.

9. Draymond, I need you to punch Kuminga in the face really really hard.

10. The USA are going to get absolutely unequivocally murdered and it ain't going to even be close That's the dumbest team I've ever heard and I respect your basketball acumen more than I do just about anybody's I am shocked

11. Day Day what the hell do blase blah mean?

12. The gold medal is playing one country against the USA, apples and oranges. The starters you just mentioned would be a bloodbath for the US team. Foreign players would be a 15 point favorite.

13. I would argue… USA starters are kind of small… and all guards… oh lordtttt the small guard line up has infected dray’s mind 😭😭😭😭 jkjk

14. Tbh the show don’t feel the same without BD

15. TJD, Gui Santos, Post, Hortford, Melton, great bench. If only Steve Kerr could see that. He sees Post, but leaves only one big guy out there . What about the rest of the names I mentioned. Kerr needs to use these guys stop waisting time with small ball line ups.

16. Take a survey and ask fans which style if basketball ball fans prefer? The 90’s or the 2010’s? Fouls vs flops?

17. First half this video is straight BS. This dude does nothing on the court but set screens and pass Steph the ball. Confidence taking your shot? This dude is a clown, you in year 1?

18. Ask yourself Dray, how is GSD doing using all these small guards? Why doesn’t Kerr see this? You see it, but your coach doesn’t?

19. It takes you 45 games to get into form? You need to come in better shape Draymond. Lol

20. Draymond acting like 65 games is some unreachable bar is wild😂 If you actually look at the data from the last 25 years, the 65-game rule is basically a gift.
    ​Standardized to an 82-game season, MVPs have averaged 94% of the season (~77 games) and 1st Teamers have averaged 92% (~75 games). Even the 3rd Team—the lowest All-NBA honor—historically averages around 85% of the season (~70 games).
    ​The 65-game rule only asks for 79%. If you can’t hit a mark that's lower than the historical average for a 3rd Team player, you aren't the best or most valuable. The league isn't making it harder; they’re literally giving stars a 17-game 'cheat code' and he still complaining😂

21. Draymond becaaaausee Green

22. The golden days story is why you can never sleep on the Warriors

23. Yes..Draymond Green….Defense always… my idol !!!.

24. Shai luka wenby jokic giannis 😮
    Not even the avengers could beat this team.
    You tripping draymond if you think America can come up with a squad to beat this team.

25. I think instead of a 65 game rule there should be a formula that takes into account the number of games played and their statistics to give a holistic view of the player impact with regard to the award they are/should be eligible for. 65 games is a black and white rule that doesn't take into account that injuries can be unpreventable and unforseeable. Can't penalize Jokic who is averaging another triple dbl season on historic efficiency bec someone ran into his knee. This rule needs to be changed.

26. aye new episode dropped 🔥

27. Bring BD back!!!! It’s dry without the back forth.the O.G is an O.G for a reason

28. Dray as a fan I don’t want to see dillion and Ja back together. I want Ja with a real new look, that’s just me tho

29. Suns fans: don't put that evil on me rick bobby

30. This podcast serves well for the organization. No Kuminga drama.

31. Dray, your reasoning about continent versus countries is absolutely ridiculous. Do you realize how small the countries you’re talking about are? The USA and Europe are similar in size, so a better comparison would be states versus countries. Take Slovenia, for example, it has a population of 2.1 million, which is smaller than many American cities. Imagine having to select the best players from a single state. How would they perform on the world stage?

32. Dinkleberg!

33. Bro….GP2 gets no cred yall never give him flowwrs but hes responsible for many pertitnent plays and defense

34. Ja has a mental problem he cnt be a Warrior
    Kuminga should be playing…just because Steve doesnt like him we lose games…
    We know Kuminga is a star but made to play sparse min but produce Steve has to go for warriors to win
    Steve is dead weight.sinking Stephs 5th ring

35. Draymond ! Steve Kerr and Podziemski is the cancer that is killing the warriors. No one will admit it and it’s time for both of them to go. The identity of the warriors are the Steve Kerr and Podziemski circus. It’s killing y’all.

36. Steph….KD….Kawai….Donovan Mitche….l Gobear

37. Hope Dray knows 20 mins is half of a game cuz I’d be dammed I pay someone for a min to check in and check out

38. Hey, Draymond. Specific question: I had a back surgery related to sciatica/disc haernia and I know you had a similar thing in the 21/22 season, you are also in touch with Al Horford, Steve Kerr, to a certain extent Loon, LeBron, all of those guys had back issues, so you've seen a lot of people with that kind of problem and you have been one of them as well. What I wanted to ask you (and I know it maybe is super specific) what kind of advice can you give to young people that sit all they long in front of computer when it comes to maintaining their back or getting back to normal movement after severe conditions like this? I would really, really appreciate to hear what you did in order to recover to the point of being able to play such a demanding sport again. (by the way, I read some articles about your recovery; me personally 6 years after my back surgery I am constantly doing core muscle-related exercises but I do experience periods of flare ups and overall uncertainty in my own back; I would LOVE it if you could tackle this area of knowledge – exercises, diet, the whole thing; THANK YOU!)

39. USA is bigger than Europe , so the countries claim is false.

40. Horrible take saying USA is still running things because they keep winning the gold medal in the Olympics. Team USA was a team full with hall of famers and they needed superb performances in the semis and final game. If the best players from Europe would team up I don’t think team USA would’ve won.

41. Seems you shoot better early in quarters after a rest. Like you get your legs right after all the defense you lose your legs in your shot. Maybe I'm wrong Dray. I love how you shooting and finishing at the rim. Stepped Up and Leveled Up. Good Stuff
