Do you think Blazers fans/organization should be cool with a report that that they forced Payton to play hurt, gave him shots, and that he can't play for 3 more months, when it appears none of that is true? My question is: Why are Warriors fans so hurt that the Blazers and their fans pushed back against the false reporting when it didn't pass the sniff test from the very start?
If you don't know by now.... Its quite obvious. Do your research and you'll come to the same conclusion to everyone not named brainwashed GSW fans.
Let me ask you this: Do you think the Blazers forced Payton to play? Do you think the Blazers forced Payton to shoot pain killers? Do you think Payton will be out 3 more months before he plays again? You had to realize the story didn't add up. Even if the Blazers didn't handle it perfectly, sensationalizing things is dangerous.
Anyone with common sense knows the warriors tried to fuck us. There's no more counterarguments. They tried to move the goalposts every few hours. So fuck GSW.
It's free, you just have to give him your email (or an email). You don't have to have a paid subscription to read it.
Knowing the NBA, they will take the Blazers pick to try and force Dame out this summer. Probably the Warriors plan.
Yup, and for simply failing to tell them that Payton was taking a very common NSAID that is used by many athletes in multiple sports in management of pain associated with typical sports pain? Their medical staff had cleared him to play. The training staff was just giving him access to a non-narcotic pain management drug.
Big shoutout to Josh Hart and Payton's agent for slamming the door on this gossip smear by GS. Lot of attention to what Hart said after his post game in NY which is the biggest media market on the planet......I think Payton's agent is Chauncey's and Dames as well, not sure how they thought this would benefit them in anyway.HEY GS!!! Thanks for Festus Ezeli and Gary Payton II....doubt we'll be looking to help them with any trads in the future.
