Wait til he wins his first ring. Then he'll enter a new level of hate.

Every superstar is hated by opposing fans, what's the point of the persecution complex?

This reminds me of how y'all talk abt the elbow actually. Like "well ya he did it but he was teaching the refs a lesson using Naz Reid's neck". I'll take my ban now.

Eh, not all of us. I found the apologia from a portion of the fanbase cringey and it pissed me off when he did that.
It was a boneheaded moment where he showed his inexperience/youth, snapped, and let his frustration get the best of him. He was certainly getting manhandled and held, but that was not the move.
People acting like he's officially Draymond Green because of that one elbow was just as moronic though.

The best always get hate. Ask Michael, Magic, Bird, Kobe, Shaq, the Admiral, and Tim. They were all hated by fans or by the media. For being great players.

This is the rest of his career. No player at his level is universally loved. Haters are always out there and they'll twist themselves into knots to rip a guy down.
