I don't like Draymond because of all his antics, but I listened to his podcast the other day, to hear what he had to say abt the Cavs game. He was very articulate and understandable. He was also extremely complimentary to the style the Cavs play and commented how they were thoroughly surprised at how fast the Cavs play. Color me surprised at his comments. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2756-the-nba/page/154/#findComment-8509528

That’s a great accomplishment. 👏🏻👏🏻 Sadly, it ended last night. The Cavaliers didn't lay down & play dead after being down around 20 points in the 3rd Quarter. Hopefully, this 15-0 start doesn't turn out to be a dud after this first loss of the season. So, this first loss wasn't worth losing sleep over. Dalton Knecht is working out very well for the Lakers so far. He scored 37 with 9 3-pointers (tied an NBA rookie record) in helping the Lakers get a very easy win on the Jazz 124-118. He will be a major help for LeBron & the Lakers. As for Bronny, he's currently in the G League learning his way in that league. Last night, he scored 4 points on 2-10 shooting with 2 assists & his team (South Bay Lakers) lost. Bronny may be finding his way in the G League & hopefully he will come back sometime during the season to help out the Lakers. But, he's currently having a better rookie season than Alex Sarr is having suffering with the Washington Wizards.

He's got a loser teammate like Jordan Poole to help get through his rookie season & Jordan Poole is most certainly a bad influence on him. I'm certain that Alex Sarr wishes that he had Draymond in his corner instead of Jordan Poole. Draymond would of been big help & an excellent role model to rookie Alex Sarr. I know that Draymond wouldn't of tolerated their current 13 game losing streak like Jordan Poole is currently doing. Also, he has Kyle Kuzma as a teammate & Kyle is just going through the motions playing for these losers. BTW, their next game & hopefully loss (it'll be 14) will be on Saturday Night against the Bucks. Doc Rivers better not mess this up like what he's doing to the Bucks.
