Dillon maliciously fouled Payton Jr., directly causing the latter to fracture his left elbow and rest for at least 3-5 weeks. Dillon's foul made Warriors coach Kerr very angry. In an interview, Cole angrily spewed Dillon: "The action is dirty, his behavior is completely out of bounds!" ”
Although Cole is annoyed, American netizens do not seem to buy it, and many people have begun to turn over old accounts. A fan posted 4 photos of Dream Green's foul on Twitter, and James became the biggest victim. Dream Green twice gouges james, once "kicks" Adams. In this year's playoffs, Green also used a "buckle" defense against Jokic.
The picture of this netizen has resonated with many people. Many people criticized Kerr for being too double-standard, and the Warriors also had a precedent of "waste" in the playoffs. For example, in the 17th Western Conference Finals, Leonard of the Spurs suffered Zaza's "stepping foot". At the same time, there are many people who defend their dreams, saying that his defensive habits are not as harmful as Dillon.
Green is indeed a great player and he has done a lot for the team. But he also has times when he loses his mind on the field. When we see these pictures, the scene is still vividly remembered. The outside world criticized dream chasing at that time, and now everyone is criticizing Dillon. However, these elements are always indispensable in the playoffs, and criticism does not seem to work.
No one likes to see their players injured after a malicious foul, but fans disagree with Cole's comments about Dillon because they know the Warriors have a player named Draymond Green.
