“Spineless… Coward”: Traumatized Fans Scrutinize Steve Kerr and Warriors FO for Kevin Durant Level Negligence With Jordan Poole

On 12th December, Draymond Green punched Suns’ center, Jusuf Nurkic, in the face. Draymond was immediately suspended from the game. However, on 13th December, the NBA’s decision to suspend Green indefinitely sent shockwaves around the basketball world. The NBA’s decision regarding Green was unprecedented, and the criticism surrounding his behavior quickly followed.

The Warriors faced criticism for not taking disciplinary action against Draymond despite incidents like his altercation with teammate Jordan Poole. In a recent interview, Steve Kerr acknowledged that the situation could have been managed more effectively.

Kerr regrets how Jordan Poole’s Warriors stint ended

At one point, Jordan Poole was dubbed the third member of the “Splash Bros”. However, his career hasn’t lived up to the expectations of many Warriors fans. Following a disappointing 2022-23 season, Jordan Poole was traded to the Washington Wizards this offseason. During the 2022-23 season, the environment within the Warriors’ camp was rife with tension because Draymond Green punched Jordan Poole. 

In hindsight, it’s evident that the Warriors could have managed the situation more effectively, a sentiment recently acknowledged by Steve Kerr. He said, “We could have done better.” However many fans felt that it was too late for the Warriors to acknowledge their mistakes. An X (formerly Twitter) user by the name of El Fantasma wrote, “I’m not gonna lie this front office and coach are spineless, they just repeated the same mistake as the KD situation basically, always letting Dray get away with it. That’s why I’ve always felt like Bob Myers was a coward and couldn’t say anything to Dray.”

The Warriors’ inadequate dealings with Draymond’s behavior have reared its ugly head. Following Green’s continuous “unsportsmanlike conduct”, the NBA suspended him indefinitely. Draymond will miss at least three weeks due to the suspension. 

Fans react to Steve Kerr’s recent comments

Draymond Green’s recent suspension has opened a pandora’s box of varied opinions. Many people believe that his consistent lack of sportsmanlike conduct and disregard for player safety has been overlooked for an extended period. A X user by the name of Brandon Brimer wrote, “They didn’t handle the Green/Durant incident well either. The front office could’ve done better with Green/Poole incident and failed by repeating the same mistakes.”

Another user wrote, “Too much politics in Kerr’s decision making. Better to be guided by a moral compass.”

Whereas another fan by the username of wmdl suggested that it’s too late for the Warriors to acknowledge their mistakes now. He wrote, “Leadership vacuum…too late, Poole is gone, draymond continues to sabotage the team.”

A Warriors’ fan by the username of Justfax thought that the Dubs were more concerned about the video leak, rather than Draymond’s “toxicity”. He wrote, “Warriors were more concerned with things leaking instead of the real problem which was the toxicity of Draymond Green.”
