The Golden State Warriors suffered yet another loss, and this time in the In-Season Tournament, which obviously adds insult to injury.
They were already undermanned, as Stephen Curry suffered a knee injury, which wasn’t expected to be serious, but they still took him out for cautionary reasons.
Then, just one minute into the game, Klay Thompson and Jaden McDaniels got tied up into a scuffle that ended with both of them — plus Draymond Green — being ejected.
Green came out of the blue and put Rudy Gobert in a headlock, dragging him down the court.
However, the Minnesota Timberwolves big man seemingly was just trying to separate the scuffle, not aggravate it.
That’s why former NFL player Emmanuel Acho called out Draymond Green and wondered when he’s going to be more mature.
I wonder when Draymond will mature past unnecessary fights. It’s as if he’s trying to prove his toughness when no one has ever questioned it.
Gobert was just trying to break up the scuffle, and here comes “big bad” Draymond Green.

Acho stated that Green is always trying to prove that he’s tough, even when no one has ever questioned his toughness.
Truth be told, he has a valid point there.
We already know what Green is about, and while we should never criticize players for standing up for their teammates, Green should’ve known better by now.
He’s in year 12, and while he doesn’t like people telling him how to hold back his emotions, that one was just common sense.
His passion and heart make him great, and are two of the reasons why he’s been a pivotal figure in the Bay area for so long.
Then again, his team needs him to be on the floor, especially when they’re undermanned.
