We've got the Dayton Dragons here and it's a great atmosphere. There are some food spots that have the more expensive concessions pricing, but there's always a "special" or "deal" to be had somewhere in the park. (Dog night, beers, etc)

Looking on my phone so I can't see where he plays at.

7'4" and that kind of control is pretty amazing.

He plays in France but they've played 2 G League teams here in America the last 2 days.

He had 37 points with 7 3s and 5 blocks yesterday, and 36 and 11 today.

He's 18, some reports are that he's 7'5" and he has over an 8 foot wingspan.

Best and most hyped prospect since Lebron

I still think he'll end up having injuries like all the dudes that size but no brainer #1 pick and take any and all risks.

This will be an extremely boring season as about 60% of teams will be tanking for Wemby or Scoot

Poole maximized the “fuck around and find out” meme.

And then found out from Draymond.

People have been saying its a sucker punch.. but in my life, anytime ive pushed someone I was ready for a potential punch... Weird. Also that was a solid shot.

That's 100% on Draymond but Poole should have been ready.


Draymond ws clearly looking for an altercation and Poole wasn't. I don't blame Poole at all for shoving the dude who came 10-20 feet to get right in his face but once you do, you should probably be ready for retaliation. But that's all on Draymond.

Ish

Everyone knows that Draymond can be a hot head and antagonist and I'm pretty positive his teammates know that even more than any player in the league. It looked like there was some serious chirping going on back and forth, who knows what was said and if it "crossed a line" for Draymond

All of the Warriors have previously talked extensively about the rite of passage all young Warriors players go through with Draymond nonstop talking at them, , seems a safe assumption.


Also, who knows what the root cause was here but it's also likely or at least possible that only 1 of the 2 dudes are going to get an extension from the Warriors so they are possibly battling each other for that extension.

Here's Draymond on his podcast a while back praising Pooles trash talking and insinuating you're weak if you let him get to you :lol:
