Fast money comes with slow problems. Plenty of other ways to sell a product.

Draymond Green would likely be in jail or worse if he didn't happen to be good at basketball.
Glaring personality disorder / borderline psychopath.

Maybe. I would not be surprised to see Green back on the court before the playoffs (unless the Warriors continue to struggle to make the play in). But the most likely scenario I see is the Silver Puff us his chest, The Warriors play for a high lotto, and then Green has to apply to be reinstated for next season. I just pray his shenanigans don't result in the Warriors pulling a top 3 pick.
*I just saw Wojo's snippet- so I guess indefinitely just means until Green feels ready to come back.

"Take the time he needs to deal with the challenges he's facing."
Why do they always need to make him sound like a victim?
The dude is a criminal. Draymond needs help? No, the rest of the league needs help from leadership to get him out, that's who needs help. The victims of his violence need help you absolute morons.

Yes they care about the how because it has long term implications.
They might not want to sacrifice the long term image of the league for short term ratings. This isn't the WWE.

wasn't necessarily talking about the NBA but do you think that the NBA likes having a villain?

Waiting for the eventual Jalen Rose interview with Draymond Green on ESPN.

So in recent play, Green has executed a curb stomp, a rear naked choke, and a spinning back fist. Sign this man up for some cage fighting

I don't like Draymond but this is below the belt. Don't drag his family into it.

I took it as more of a Chris Benoit shot than a shot at Dray’s family tbh

Ackshually, Sheed did it when the NBA was more physical. He did it when men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri. I guaransheed he would get more ejections that Draymond in this soft era.

If I were Ramona, I would not be "extending" conversations with Draymond. Who cares if a cuckoo clock doesn't know what time is. Oh boy, what a tragic hero!

In a cage match, his opponent would be allowed to fight back.

So is the NBA letting Draymond decide how long his suspension will be, based on how long it takes him to “figure it out?”
If so, that’s a crock of **** and I completely disagree. Give him the time he needs yes, but when he’s ready to come back, then suspend him. Just because he’s emotionally unstable and unable to play now should not account for his actual punishment. There needs to be a punishment. Green can go on and on about how he needs help now and “heat of the moment”, but there are plenty of podcasts that he’s created where he defends himself even after having time to dwell on it. The guy is deranged and is endangering others. Get help, and when you come back, you will serve your punishment. That’s what should happen.

I don't know that this is the case. I think it is more of a "let's figure out and go through a process and see what it ends up being" type of situation. I don't think they know exactly what that process will be yet. I do wish they would put a minimum limit on it up front though.
I agree that he doesn't think he did anything wrong (in the various infractions) and that is a HUGE issue. I don't think he should be playing again this year, at a minimum, given his actions. I don't think the previous punishments were severe enough to begin with, either.
