\"Draymond<\/p>\n

Draymond Green\u2019s latest blunder didn\u2019t just paint another target on his back, but has nearly overshadowed the Warriors\u2019 miraculous turnaround this season. The four-time NBA Champion caught fire after stating that Karl-Anthony Towns skipped the recent Knicks vs. Warriors matchup because he was ducking Jimmy Butler when in reality KAT was attending a funeral. The error could have been fixed with a simple apology, but Dray is not known for keeping things simple.<\/p>\n

Instead, the 35-year-old veteran gave condolences to Towns for his loss, but also claimed that the information he merely commented on \u201cwhat he heard<\/em>\u201d before questionably promoting his podcast, The Draymond Green Show.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

The NBA community did not take Green\u2019s comments well. He faced much scrutiny and criticism from fans. Now, Famed New York analyst Ian Begley has also entered the fray and had a few words for the Golden State star.<\/p>\n

On a recent broadcast of SNY Sports, Begley explained why Draymond\u2019s refusal to apologize doesn\u2019t sit well with him. \u201cHe hasn\u2019t come out and corrected the mistake, or apologized for the error. To me, that\u2019s what you do when you make mistakes,\u201d\u00a0<\/em>said Begley.<\/p>\n

He added, \u201cHe\u2019s talked a lot about the media \u2014 fairly so, the media deserves criticism \u2014 but if you\u2019re going to be in that space, I think you have to hold yourself accountable.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

No one could deny Green\u2019s talent or spirit on the court. However, it is incidents like this that have painted his reputation as a troublesome villain of the league. Unfortunately for Green, basketball fans far and wide now feel the same way.<\/p>\n

Basketball fans are begging Draymond to do the right thing and apologize<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Begley segment has already been viewed over 100K times across social media, and has brought out the Green Haters to demand that he issue a true apology.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s trying so hard to be a tough guy. IDK if it\u2019s really him or his persona, but either way I agree, man up and say I was wrong,\u201d <\/em>said a user named Chris Reily. Riley, while harsh in his words, is demanding that Green own up to his mistake and publicly acknowledge it. Not an unjust demand. frankly.<\/p>\n
