Draymond to Darius Acuff: "I saw something in that game that he had the ball the entire possession and ultimately down the stretch late in the possession, he ended up getting fouled. My advice to him was just, 'Hey man, who else touched the ball that possession?' He's like, 'Nobody.' Don't have many of those because you can end up having a bunch of those with the Sacramento Kings this year and a few things can happen: You can get guys start plotting against you, guys that don't really wanna see you do well, guys that start bickering on the side to other guys, guys that try not to put you in the best possible position to be successful. You can get guys that get upset like 'Ah man, they wanna give this rookie this, they wanna do that, f**k that!' and then get pissed off. By the way, when you are on bad teams trying to figure out a direction, you could be in a situation where no vets are even talking to you. People see you gonna have the ball every possession, that's great. That's all great, fine and dandy until you start creating bad habits and there's no one really there to correct it. For me, when I saw that, I just wanted to give him a little game."
