    Draymond being Draymond
    There was a physical altercation at the Warriors’ practice Wednesday morning that has the team seriously considering disciplinary action toward Draymond Green, sources with knowledge of the incident told The Athletic.


    When a heated interaction with guard Jordan Poole escalated, Green forcefully struck Poole and needed to be separated swiftly, sources said. Green and Poole came chest-to-chest, with both players pushing and shoving each other prior to Green’s escalation of the physical altercation, those sources said.



    The Warriors stopped practice and tried to settle nerves in the team’s locker room area, but it appears that internal discipline is imminent.


    Poole and Green are known to regularly get into verbal arguments, but the team’s management and leadership believes a line was crossed.

    The Athletic will have more on this story as it develops.

      Poole is their future. They better be careful.

        No biggie.

        Draymond just needed some new content for his podcast.

            Green is the MVP of the team every year, the real leader

              Green apologized and all is well again in Dub Nation.
              Moral of the story is, if you talk shit to Draymond expect Green to get in your face.

                Seems like a non story, teammates get in dusts ups often.

                  Stephen Curry denied a report claiming a change in Poole's attitude amid contract negotiations led to it ... calling it "absolute BS."


                  Pair of thugs. They should face each other in a death match with no winner. Make the world a better place.

                    I believe the story running that Green is jealous of the extension Poole is getting. He views himself as some sort of super-star (top 50 all time I think he said) but the Warriors aren't buying.

                        How is Poole a thug? . Do want know what the hell he said to Draymond, though.

                          I'm going by the stuff he did in the playoffs last season. Did nothing wrong in the video.

                            I'm not an NBA insider, but the one's that are, and the one's words I trust tell me Poole has an enormous ego, he comes across like he believes his shit don't stink.
                            This is what I am told and I have no reason to doubt that.

                            Thing is (from what I am told also) even though Draymond's two amigos, Steph and Klay sometimes get pissed at the Green 'thug act' they really appreciate him.

                            Feeling here is either one or both of them said to Green "listen, do the right thing and make this right, we don't need this"

                            That's what I think happened behind the scenes anyway.

                                LOL nice personality. He cold cocked his own teammate! Total sucker punch. Dont think he'd do that to someone his own size either.

                                    They're both vastly overrated players imo. Curry makes his teammates look so much better than what they are.

                                      Might be the smartest thing I have ever heard from whichever JJ wrote this.

                                        Green should be looking at the contracts the Warriors signed Iguodala for as he got older and older. That is the caliber of player Green now is. Not elite, not great, but very good for team chemistry. Max, do not make me laugh
                                        Poole has far more upside at their current level of play.

                                          Like the Udoka thing all over again... former players on social media complaining about the leak and saying it's normal behaviour.

                                          I don't understand how you can not suspend him for that. It's like sanctioned abuse. What a creepy organization.

                                            From the initial description, didn't sound that serious.

                                            That's worse than any punch I've ever seen in any game between teams. That was full-throttle and force. Amazing if Poole didn't get seriously injured.

                                                The fact that there is a video of this is going to make it very difficult for Poole to just forget about it ever happening and for them to bury the hatchet. Poole will constantly be reminded of it from family and friends. I wonder who leaked out the video?

                                                  To blacks it is normal behavior. These liberal organizations won't punish their pets, but they'll raise hell if a white person wants to get away from them.

                                                            Indeed. This Bob Myers guy is as liberal as they come. One of those types that thinks any punishment is too severe. Has his team (actually just assistant coaches and other riff-raff, for no NBAer wants to play against crooks) play against a prison squad every summer, just because crooks deserve a bit of good press.

                                                              Green said he's going to take time off of basketball for awhile. Not sure what that means? Self imposed suspension?

                                                                Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green publicly apologized Saturday and announced he will step away from the team for a few days after an altercation between him and teammate Jordan Poole.
                                                                "No. 1, I was wrong for my actions," Green said. He added that he has apologized to Poole and Poole's family.
                                                                "There's a huge embarrassment that comes with [this]," Green said. "Not only for myself, as I was the one who committed the action ... but the embarrassment that Jordan has to deal with and that this team has to deal with, this organization has to deal with. But also Jordan's family. His family saw that video. His mother, his father saw that video. If my mother saw that video, I know how my mother would feel."
