The talks around the troubles inside the Orlando Bubble were hot when it all began in July. But in no time, the NBA players got accustomed to the new normal and accepted things as they were. However, scratching the wound, Los Angeles Lakers forward Danny Green has again blown life into the debate of Bubble, social media, and other such issues.

We all heard, read, and even wrote about some Bubble non-performers all the season. Many players like Paul George and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope faced the backlash of fans whenever they failed to perform. Danny Green touched this aspect of the game and spoke his heart out.

The Los Angeles Lakers forward, uncensored!

There have been numerous occasions when fans mocked Danny Green for his lackluster play. They questioned his place in the starting five and what not. Recently, in an interview, Danny came forward and said, “The Bubble is as good as you’re playing. And you have not many escapes or outside distractions. If you’re not playing well, the walls are gonna close in on you more and more.”

He then showed support for LA Clippers forward PG and explained, “You have nothing but to look at your phone on social media all day and all they’re doing is bullying you. So he [Paul George] was going through a rough stretch. I’m sure walls are closing around and it’s getting dark for a log of guys. It’s just hard to accept the situation as this is a Bubble.”

Lastly, he expressed how Lakers bounced back in the Bubble, but they also faced a lot of heat. Danny told, “We just started feeling better as a group in the last couple of days since we’ve been here in the Bubble. And lot of people embraced it. But, if you’re not playing well as an individual or as a group, it’ll be dark real quick. Those walls will close a lot soon and a lot faster. There’s no escape.”

What might have led to Danny Green say these things?

PG faced enough criticism for the first four games in the round 1 of post-season. He expressed in an interview how all that affected his mental health and led to anxiety and some depression.

Something similar happened with Danny Green, who could not perform well at the beginning of the Playoffs. He started the post-season by recording 8/26 and could not add much help. He was supposed to fill the void that Avery Bradley left, but he kind of missed out.

The Deadshot averaged 8.8 points, 3 rebs, and 0.8 assists in the playoff as of now. So his dealing with Lakers fans has been rough as well. Let’s see if things get better from here.
