Nick Wright: “I’ll just be totally honest, I don't have this full thought completed and that’s risky to ever just go ahead Live with it... But Jordan Poole is 80 pounds lighter than him [Draymond Green] – much smaller, then the three guys in the last year he’s attacked are European players. I'm not saying there’s anything intrinsic about European players but I do think that that would be an odd statistical coincidence given the percentage of players that are European vs. otherwise. He slapped LeBron in the groin area... He shoved Donovan Mitchell from behind... Where is the Draymond Green squaring up with Paul George? He kicked Steven Adams who is a big strong guy, but he kicked him in the groin. Draymond strikes me as potentially fraudulently tough. Obviously, a tough defender, great player, and all those things, but in all the extracurricular stuff, none of it has seemed like a fair fight. Even if you take the European stuff outside of it, you have Sabonis laying on the ground, you have Gobert not looking at him, and you have Nurkic having no idea this is coming, none whatsoever. None of it is a ‘fair fight’ so to speak.”
Dan Patrick: “Yeah, he’s cowardly tough.”
Wright: “That’s how I feel.”
Watch FS1 studio host Nick Wright join The Dan Patrick Show to discuss Draymond Green’s indefinite suspension that has put his career further under the microscope as one of the league’s dirtiest players of the era.
Wright chronicles the history of Green’s antics, saying there’s always been a trend of Green continuing to deliver these illicit blows during moments when the opposing player is at his most vulnerable and unsuspecting state, leading Wright to believe that Green might be cowardly avoiding a ‘fair fight’ where both players would be squared up and prepared for blows.
Wright also wonders if Green’s repeated incidents with European players – Jusuf Nurkic, Domantas Sabonis, Rudy Gobert – isn't a coincidence.
Check out the segment above as Wright details to Dan Patrick why he thinks Green’s indefinite suspension was a ‘cop-out’ and that Adam Silver took ‘too soft of a touch’ with Green’s punishment.
