With all the information out there, podcasts on any topic with highly intelligent hosts and remarkable story tellers it blows my mind that someone would chose to listen to a draymond green podcast lol

Just watch any game where Steph Isn’t playing. Draymond completely shuts down and gives up.

Forget he wouldn’t play on the old Celtics, he wouldn’t play much as a starter had Mark Jackson remained on the team. Jackson is old school and plays heavy ISO pick and roll with Steph and David Lee like he did with Patrick Ewing, Green is an undersized PF who can’t shoot, he would never be featured in the offense.

I’m glad Austin Rivers clapped back at Draymond. I like Dray, but dude is oftentimes a bully. Draymond always take these wrong. He was a backpack shooter like Austin said😂😂. If Dray was drafted by the Washington Wizards, we wouldn’t even be talking about him. He landed in the right situation & Austin did not..

Draymond is a nobody without steph or kerr. Throws tantrums like a 5 year old.

@princellasmith7562
May 6, 2026 at 11:26 pm
Draymond is talking like this because he doesn’t want to get traded to a garbage team. He either wants to stay in Golden State or be traded to a respectable place that has a chance of being a contender, so he’s trying to let everybody know that: “I could have scored more if they were not for Steve Kerr.” I think he also knows that there’s a good chance that Steve Kerr is not going to be in Golden State next season, so he’s kind of trying to make it like he could stay without Steve and could work with a new coach.
