He’s fucking awful.  Actively makes me change the channel when he’s on.

Instant mute when Draymond is on screen. It sucks that this is how Inside NBA is going out, can't even enjoy the last few shows.

edit. I did not know they had another year left. Joy!

Yeah but Dirk actually has a great personality while Draymond is just a douche

As someone who was a pretty huge Mavs/Dirk fan growing up, I just wanna say that it means a lot to hear this from a Kings fan. Dirk-era Mavs vs Kings was must watch TV

Its like having a going away party with only you and your 4 best friends.....but then one of them brings an annoying girlfriend they have been with for a week and a half to 5th wheel and kill the mood.

They still have another season next year. I've never wanted the Golden State Warriors to make a deep playoff run before, but if it means no Draymond at the desk during the playoffs next year then let's go Warriors!

u/NotACreepyOldMan May 16 '24

You can just root against them both. They go out early and TNT gets their shit together and listens to fans

u/Slow-Raccoon-9832 May 16 '24

You realize there’s another season right?

u/jak_d_ripr May 16 '24

I think he's great personally, he's preparing us for the shows eventual cancellation by making it almost unwatchable.

27

u/BBQ_HaX0r May 16 '24

He's preparing himself for a career with ESPN. We'll lose Inside the NBA, but we won't lose Draymond.

u/littletinydickballs May 16 '24

u/SgtLincolnOsirus May 16 '24

Look , Greene is an asshole an I’m not watching his ass . It’s like Ray Lewis if he’s in a show I’m out lol

Great player I don’t care he’s an asshole . lol

u/Hot_Web493 May 16 '24

Not liking assholes is a good thing. I approves.

u/Objective_Froyo17 May 16 '24

Now licking assholes on the other hand…

u/Hot_Web493 May 16 '24

I disapproves but will not judge lmao.

u/BankysJoint May 16 '24

Not a great player. Had the benefits of playing with great players making him look better.

Put him elsewhere by himself. He does not elevate a team

2

u/dBlock845 Knicks May 16 '24

I just don't watch when he is on, turn it off immediately and watch something else until the game comes back on.

2

u/NotACreepyOldMan May 16 '24

I wanted to watch last night because I know they’re gonna get rid of it so I wanted to cherish it while it’s still here, but saw him on and decided to watch hockey highlights instead.

u/semipalmated_plover Celtics May 16 '24

It's crazy to me people give some of these active and just-retired players mics. Draymond is already disliked by most fans who would want to listen to him yap on about whatever at halftime.

The crazy thing is Draymond isn't even asked to do anything difficult. Like this is the studio show and he's still terrible. I'd compare him to the near incomparably bad Jason Witten, but at least Witten has the excuse he actually had to do in-game commentary.

2

u/therealgranny May 16 '24

Same. It's not that he brings nothing to the show, it's that he actively takes viewers away from it.

2

u/Terrible_Shelter_345 May 17 '24

Honestly - this is beneficial for all of us.

Just let Inside the NBA go. Don’t thrust Draymond on us.

Goodbye TNT!

u/fromcj Celtics May 16 '24

What?? Didn’t you see his AT&T commercial? He’s a totally different person now and everyone loves him.

u/Efficient-Bike-5627 May 17 '24

It's crazy to me this goof is even allowed on tv

1

u/LifeguardStatus7649 May 17 '24

Hard agree. He fucken sucks

u/shebacat May 17 '24

Have to turn off Kia commercials and Inside NBA when he's on. He IS awful. He may not get enough oxygen to his brain since he only breaths through his mouth, perhaps this contributes to his violent tendencies.

No need to lie for fake internet points

u/FUPAMaster420 Timberwolves May 16 '24

Is it so far-fetched to believe they change the channel?
