"We Saw a Little Brother Get Bullied": Ejected Bucks Fan Mike Shane Finally Speaks Out

The recent Warriors-Bucks game wasn’t short on drama, whether it was Stephen Curry and coach Steve Kerr expressing their dissent against the officiating or Draymond Green getting into an altercation with a fan, leading to the latter being ousted from the arena.

Nonetheless, recent reports have provided a further update on the heated exchange between Draymond and the Bucks superfan, who goes by the name of Mike Shane. Appearing on the KJ Live podcast, the R&B singer claimed to be giving the Warriors DPOY a pass for his punching incident against Milwaukee native Jordan Poole.

Addressing Draymond as a ‘bully,’ Bucks fan Shane provided clarification that he was by no means threatening the four-time champion. The musician aimed to tell the four-time All-Star that they had not forgotten what he had done to their brother JP, who hails from Milwaukee.

From what it seems, fans haven’t forgotten about the incident involving Draymond punching Poole. The most recent example of this was a Bucks fan and the Warriors forward going back and forth, leading to the former being escorted out from the arena by the officials.

Being provided a platform to share his side of the story, the Bucks fan named Mike Shane appeared on Kevin Johnson’s podcast, having the following to say.

“I’m coming from being from Milwaukee and from a basketball fan perspective, let alone him (Poole) being from Milwaukee, don’t do that to your teammate. Yeah, so I was speaking up for Milwaukee, we felt like, we saw a little brother get bullied and we could do nothing about it. I mean, we ain’t forgot about it, we’re giving you a pass.”

Well, it’s going to be a while before fans let Draymond move on from his ugly incident with JP.
