His “apology”/explanation was pathetic and clownish. It wasn’t an intentional act?!?  He spun around before swinging his arm so he could hit his target. Jerk needs to be suspended for at least 20 games.

Agreed. This is what happens though when the league allows someone to get away with this stuff for so long.

Two possible results from the Lakers winning the in-season tournament:

It motivates them and they go on a winning binge the second half of the season.
We have to watch a nauseating locker room celebration after they win their 18th title while Anthony Davis talks about the in-season tournament being the key factor that turned around their season and drove them to the championship. I make plans to move out of the country.

OR

They spend the rest of the season celebrating and Davis, once again, loses any consistent intensity while Lebron falls in love with his 32-foot step-backs while focusing more on his son's draft status than the Lakers record. The seasons deteriorates into a disappointing failure. All is well.
Don't move! It will more likely be the latter.

Yep.  He's held to a different standard, just like in Game 2 of last year's playoffs.  He's the most reckless, dirty player in recent NBA history, and he constantly skirts serious punishment.

At this point he's more of a hockey goon than a basketball player.

I don't think anything will ever be done about Draymond. It just keeps happening over and over.

The Draymond flagrant reminded me of the Artest (or was he MWP already, I forget) elbow to Harden's head awhile back.  Significant windup and direct, forceful shot to the opponent's head. 

MWP got seven games.  Crazy thing is, Draymond has MORE of a track record than MWP did at the time, even acknowledging the fact that Draymond has never had an incident as bad as the Malice.  With that in mind, does Draymond get more than seven?  I think he should.

Repeat offender and happening so soon after coming back from his recent suspension, I gotta imagine double digits.

Dang, Nurkic wasn't doing anything, not even talking; Green just turned around and whaled on his head. He should be gone at least 10 games for that.

NBA will be soft on him and give him 1 game

I’m rooting for at least 4, so he doesn’t goon a Celtic next week and mess up our season causing an injury.

If Draymond doesn't get more than 10 games then I have no clue what the point is. You're basically giving these guys an excuse to start playing dirty all the time.
