Booooo! Hssssss! Get him off the stage! Someone hand me the heaviest orange on the tree so I can make Draymond Green feel the vengeful wrath of the low hanging fruit. I mean, a fat joke? Really? Someone that's widely considered one of the best shit stirrers in a league that encourages its players to talk that talk, and the best he's got for one of the more objective media members in the hyper critical world of sports is a shot at his weight? Anatomically accurate or not, calling Brian Windhorst "no neck" is just a lazy ass dig. With how often they are on the other end of overly presumptuous critiques and hot takes, I have no problem with professional athletes firing back at reporters. But when you publicly embrace your reputation as having a clever way with words, you damn well better come with a higher form of humor than that which you'd expect to hear during 3rd grade recess. Contextually speaking, an anecdotal call-back to something he definitely said was just about the most harmless Draymond Green name-drop you'll ever hear. So while I know low blows are kinda his thing, wouldn't saving them for the endless amount of media personalities just waiting for him to slip up so they can hurl actual insults his way make a bit more sense? Brian Windhorst doesn't have to worry about protecting his neck, for obvious reasons, but that was nothing more than a subtweeted sucker punch below his protruding belt.
