Never really heard Brunson talk before this interview. Now I get why he was sought after as a free agent. Smart guys like this make teams better just by being there
Same here. Definitely has a good head on his shoulders and can play ball at a high level. Good pick up by the Knicks. Celtics fans like myself don't say that about the Knicks often.
Bronson sold his soul, dam followers!!
Smart, killer mindset, hard-worker dedicated to improving. I’m going to miss him on the mavs but I don’t blame him for leaving to pursue such a unique opportunity in NYC.
Some Mavs fans are coping and saying Jalen isn’t going to do that well, but I would never bet against this guy. He’s been steadily improving
I also think Jaylen is a one hit wonder!!
@@AquarianAngel. Your Basic, using clown 🤡. That's old news. Your a losing Maverick fan who lost to us Warrior's 😋🤫🤭🤗
I believe Draymond is the only player to achieve a triple double that doesn't include points back in 2017. That just speaks volumes to his game.
We are 30-1 in games he gets a triple double. Impactful not Westbrook 20-20-20 and a L .

Hes the floor general and defensive anchor on one of the greatest dynasties in sports history. Pretty valuable.
Casuals only see the triple single smh. Teams who would want to win will surely want him
I see him more as their vocal leader kinda like usonis haslem for the heat
@@jarrenhuynh6517 not the same at all… that’s iggy
@@jarrenhuynh6517 he also runs the offense and gets players into their spots on both sides of the floor, as well as being the smartest player on the team. He and Curry are crucial to raising the confidence of their young players and getting them to play without fear
Draymond is overrated. Without him,the warriors would still have won back in 17, 18 and last postseason. He even chased kd away lmao
Draymond gets so much more respect as the years go on. I can go back in my chat history to when my buds and I were giving props to him when he was subbing in for DLee. It’s been a long upward journey.
Facts
He doesn't get any respect from casual fans. Most casual NBA fans don't seem to realize Draymond is a shoe in for the HOF
@@jccwell bcuz he’s not skilled as a scorer and overrated as an defender it’s just the truth he only fits with the warriors and that’s okay he’s a star in his role that’s all
@@ShaBalla he ain’t overrated as a defender probably underrated if anything… he is a pretty bad scorer though
Warrior fans been knowing this . It’s all the clowns that just watch Twitter and not basketball games .
For people shitting on Draymond, dude is basically a playing coach, watch Thinking Basketball's breakdown on him during the Finals, the way he anchors their defense is absolutely incredible.
If one day he become a coach. It will be scary as hell.
I've always said I'll take greens defense today so perfectly timed patient knows when to rotate when to help defend etc....if green was 6ft 9 my goodness good luck
Draymond is the type of player whose value can only be seen by people who actually know basketball. In an era where if you don't score 25-30 a night, you're considered "trash", Draymond still manages to make an impact. And you saw it in the last two Finals games. Draymond had 12, 12, and 8 in game 6, and he was the third-best player on the floor after Steph and Andrew Wiggins.
Stop it Poole then Looney then Klay were all better
Facts.
I agree with u, real people who play basketball understand that every one doesn't score. Someone has to be the person to make a impact without scoring and thats what Draymond does. I honestly think he can be one of those basketball players who wasn't that great on the court but can make a hell of a coach like, Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, George Karl, Rich Adelman, Rick Carlisle and etc
@@sonichedgehog2964 learn basketball better lol
“mUh i KnOw bAsKeTbAlL”
My coach always used to call me “Draymond with a jumper” since this was 4 years ago or so, I didn’t really see the value in a guy like Draymond and so I saw it as a bad thing that I wasn’t comparable to more of a scorer. Over the years I’ve learned to appreciate Draymond’s role and in that I’ve respected the comparison my coach made and I see it more and more in my game.
Support is absolutely priceless.
Damn bro If we're still playing basketball that's literally the player I would want to be Draymond with a knockdown jumper and damn bro If that's what your coach calls you I got some real respect for you bro
@@trisvar9225 all love baby, thanks.. 💪🏾

Gotta include Shawn Marion in the conversation of greatest garbage men of the modern NBA, thriving in their role of all the things that don’t show up on the stat sheet.
God I love Shawn Marion.
Derek Fisher!!
Was thinking the same thing
Shawn and AK47 were defensive problems in the 2000’s
Shawn Marion stats does show. Did you play fantasy basketball when he was playing? He was a top pick every year. Fantasy basketball is all stats
Draymond is the difference between 4 titles, 73 win season.. they don’t achieve any of that without him.. he’s the reason why the Warriors were able to go small, revolutionized how basketball is played & the rest of the league tried to emulate it.. but they don’t have a SF/PF tweener named Draymond Green.
He’s been the 3rd/4th best player for all their rings…
@@yerik6034 without him that offense doesn’t flow and that defense isn’t as great as it can be
Well said.

@@andyjiang2047 ok? Doesn’t mean they don’t win
There should be a salary cap exception for homegrown talent, like a specific threshold above the normal salary cap that teams can use to sign star players that they drafted so they don't have to face luxury tax penalties. Homegrown teams get broken up far too often because they can't pay their star players without getting into the luxury tax, something about that should change, teams should be rewarded for drafting well and keeping them around.
Dude, haven't you heard of the Larry Bird clause? It's a version of that.
No.
@@mox9076 no I haven't
Bird rights
@@mox9076 Larry Bird Exception allows you to exceed the cap and provide a better salary(and an additional year) for homegrown players or players that have been under the same team for at least 3 years in the same contract.
This however doesn't exempt them from the luxury tax as the OP seems to imply which is the exact problem that the Warriors face.
jj wants his boy to get that max contact ext lol
i peeped this too 😂😂😂😂
Echoing the comments made by others on here: loved hearing Jalen Brunson speak on the value of team culture and Draymond. Very articulate and thoughtful. A thinking-man's hooper!
Bill Russell played the Draymond role. Pretty good record.
I remember when i was younger and was reading a book about basketball and it said 90% of the game is played without the ball. 5v5 only one person can have it at a time, and Draymond communicates, boxes out, switches, rebounds, gets in passing lanes, takes charges pretty much anything and everything to get the ball back for his guys, and if he can't with his defense he forces lower percentage shots. Draymond plays that 90% aspect at a masterful level, it's unselfish players like him that set the tone, so when guys have the ball they know to make the right play on offense, because they see an absolute beast do anything and everything to get them that ball back on defense.
But he also creates 5 on 4 on offense. He is a liability and that’s why they benched him in the finals for a game or two during crucial minutes
@@jayyyhammm but I’m the warriors system Draymond is often the ball handler making reads to all the crazy movement that Steph and Klay are doing
Dray and Steph have a relationship of basketball mutualism
@@jayyyhammm I agree with he is a liability, but I think he knows it to an extent as well, therefore you don't see him forcing up bad shots in droves which ends up siphoning the ball to more effective scorers. It def makes them easier to defend in the paint unless they have slashing action going that's for sure.
you could have mentioned the coaching staff also: Kerr and his assitants do a brilliant job to incorporate youngsters, the system is great
Teams wish they could pair their scoring guards with someone like draymond. The man just super-elevates someone like Dame or Trae Young into the stratosphere.
Sure Steph is an all-time talent without Dray but that offense or defense doesnt move as beautifully as it does without Draymond.
I think personalities have a lot to do with it too. I'm not sure Dame or Trae would get along with Dray the way Steph does. Maybe they could...hard to say.
@@jedipudu Dame could. Trae can’t.
The proof is in the shitty defense both these guys provide: Dame got Steph defense, Trae is a LIABILITY on the defensive end. Like you can tell when Dame tries and he can be capable to get a stop. Trae can’t give you a stop if his life depended on it. I like both players, but you can tell Trae emulates Steph’s game but only the offensive side.
@@smackddd3339 Steph is a better defender but Dame does put forth more effort than the other PGS
@@smackddd3339 exactly. He would make Dame better, but for how long 2/3 seasons max. Would he elevate them to championship material? Probably not.
Trae’s own is a bit more dicey for me
But if he wants the max and someone else is ready to give him, then by all means he should get it. I just feel like it’s be a bad basketball decision for both parties sadly…
@Zatarah Bouchard if I was the warriors, I wouldnt want to find out without fully developing the new core of young guys
Dray found a perfect way to fit in with klay and steph, he is very valuable to that team but I don’t think he’d be good on any other team
I think that true not because of draymond talent I feel like coaches wouldn’t know how to use him
He'd have to take that TNT job or just be a full time podcaster riding the coattails of Stephen Curry
Predictions are always tricky, but to me I saw draymond evolve is role into what the warriors needed. I’m not sure convinced he couldn’t do that again to fit what another team needs. His defense, rebounding, and playmaking are all elite but he could get exposed on another team w his current skill set. Hard to count out a 4 time champ though, he knows how to win in this league.
Lemme ask you this question. What skillset does Dray bring to the team? Can he bring that to another team. If the answer is yes then obviously he'd be valuable elsewhere. If the question is too hard for you guys, he brings playmaking, defense, rebounding, and leadership. Why can't he bring that to another team? Will he suddenly forget how to defend or grab boards? He's a dpoy for a reason.
Idiotic comment. He is glue. Glue fits everywhere. Would immediately make any teams a lot better.
We tend to forget Brunson is the son of a former bench player.... that means his knowledge of the game is extensive. Guys that fathers grinded not starred are typically really good about the nuances of the game.
Darius Garland PE of this formula
Y’all actually have each other‘s backs. Love to see it
People actually forget that Draymond use to score the ball a lot more.
I wouldn’t say “a lot” more.
yup. he had a nasty middy(mid range) at the free throw/top of the key, and he was actually a better 3-pt shooter earlier in his career about when they acquired my boy Iggy.
Simply put Draymond is a leader and a hustler !!!
He is a smart basketball player as well, knows his role, and does it well! Both him and Steph I believe are the engine of the team. With the sniper of Klay, and the selfless of the GSW culture.
I believe all of it starts with Steph though, he started the selfless culture, moving off the ball, passing to the open man instead of forcing a shot, and working on defence. Draymond added the intensity culture to it.
JJ been real quiet since Jerry West came out and dropped knowledge.
Everything you said about Dramond us correct. Two more things about the Warriors is the plays they do. Theirs plays are layered. You think the play their running is in thus spot. Meanwhile Steph or Clay are setting up somewhere else it's beautiful to watch. Another is the team intelligence. They know team basketball. They know about time in the game and positions. Where to be and when
Moving without the ball definitely
Still wouldnt pay him max
Only reason I wouldn't is the stage in his career. He's slightly declining. If it was a few years ago I would absolutely pay him max. But he's still extremely important to the team. Hopefully he takes a bit less than max
As a repeat tax team no way you can do it, the 30 mil has extreme ramifications
Fact of the matter is warriors are lucky Chris Middleton was hurt. Milwaukee would of tore that butt up.
@@tytytyme33 shoulda woulda coulda
Draymond got benched for Looney in the finals. His days are numbered once Kuminga develops
Facts imagine asking for the max after getting out played by Looney, pure delusion
That's one series lol but as a Mavs fan I kinda hope he leaves so we have a chance lmao
@@85gmb1 He's like the 6th best on the team rn. Stop watching basketball if you think him leaving somehow opens the door for the sorry mavs.
Wait until all 3 of them gel together this season...
@@peterblue6072 Quantify that statement. This postseason for the Warriors in the aggregate he was 1st in assists, 1st in blocks, 3rd in steals, 3rd in rebounds, and 5th in points. He had to play primary defender on the opposing team's most physical player in most series. And he had to work to push the ball and get Steph open when Steph was getting doubled in many offensive sequences. He was either the 4th or 5th best Warriors player in the vast majority of the Warriors' playoff games.
I’ve always said that Draymon is the keystone to Golden State success. Of course Draymon is not scoring 30 or 40 points a night. But he does so many little things that go unnoticed yet has major impact on the game. Defense wins championships and Draymon is the catalyst to the Warriors defense and he holds all teammates accountable for their effort. Draymon is the actual point guard who initiates offensive sets, gets teammates in the right position and makes audibles from reading opponents defense. If I recall he once averaged a triple double during a championship series. Definitely underrated.
Hella funny on timing. JJ put this cut out right as Draymond MAX extension rumors came out. LOL
"who is JJ Reddick, what did he average 12 points a game," Jerry West. Priceless.
Jj gotta address Jerry West comments. He’s lowkey cornered bc of Jerry’s status
He's last era's plumber
@@anthonys9892 lmao this Era is tic tok stars and fortnite players 🤣
He’s obviously important to the warriors success but let’s not kid ourselves : if it’s between him or Poole or Wiggins getting paid, Everyone (including Warriors front office ) is going to give Poole and Wiggins the money. No offense to Draymond but he’s not worth a max . At all.
Jj redick lowkey be down playing Poole and wiggins like they didn’t play better than draymond and klay im telling u right klay was just chucking up shots be shot 30% from the field in the finals
@@yahiaali4059 Klay has an excuse. Coming off an injury. Draymond doesn’t. Klay should be much better this season with all summer of proper conditioning
If they want to keep the team together, none of them are getting a max.
OMG I can't listen to JJ the same way after being schooled by the logo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Draymond gonna be doing 1 year deals for the rest of career without Curry, put him on the open market I dare you.
Crazy that fans like you have moronic opinions like this but then the pros all value draymond very highly. Hmmm. Your opinion is wrong and worthless lmao.
I don't think Green will be good for the other team, he is not a scorer unless team will max him
just to defend and rebound, Championship are not dependent on defense only
Lost
@@roddizon2242 he’s obviously the facilitator of the team he lead the warriors in assist and rebounds how many years??
I could see a young team like okc or det giving dray a shorter contract where he’s making max money. dray could be a major floor raiser for a young team looking to put it all together.
Was thinking that too. Imagine dray in okc, them young guys would have winning mentality. But i hope sixers can get him instead.
This the exact team that I think would be perfect for dray
This is new media. Real hoops talk. Real insight.
all imma say is they had the worst record in the league when steph and klay were out in 2019 😂
Happen to recall the warriors record while Green was out this year ?
Dray is only good because he plays so much harder than everyone else. He knew he had no reason to play hard that year lol
What team doesn’t have the worst record in the league if their two best players are out
@@calapsesathir4408 They went on a 8-0 streak while integrating different lineups every game and Klay / Poole / Curry clanking. And no Draymond wasn't the reason they were clanking, they were in a slump before Draymond got injured. If we look at Green's defense rating when he was healthy, he was *not* the reason they were a #1 defense team as their stats were superior with him off the floor by big margins.
@@420blazinYOLO the clippers last year… shows how valuable steph is
How do you set up this online podcast Mr. Redick? I'm highly interested into starting my own.
If you want to talk about how much he should get, the question shouldn't just be 'how valuable is Draymond Green to the Warriors?' It should include 'can he be just as valuable elsewhere?' and 'will there be any team out there that thinks he can do it with them and would be willing to pay anywhere near what he wants to find out?' My guess would be no to both, which is why he doesn't deserve the max because the market matters. If no one else is willing to pay, who are the Warriors bidding against? They still can and probably will pay him a lot, just not the max. He's nowhere near a max player.
The market does matter but you also have to account for how much value something has to you. He might be useless anywhere else but IF he puts you over the edge. He's as good as gold to you. GSW is a smart team and Dray knows that system almost as good, if not better than Steve Kerr. He deserves the max
Draymond gonna be doing 1 year deals for the rest of career without Curry
@@nkosimataka5565 Like I said, they will still pay him a lot but not the max. Even with the way they like to spend, it would be way too much. At his age and production, there's a huge gap between what he would get in open market and what GS would be willing to pay, never mind the actual max. I mean, if he won't accept anything but max money but Warriors aren't willing to pay it, what are his options especially if Warriors are still willing to pay a good chunk more than he would get elsewhere? That's how NBA market works. They aren't stupid and they aren't going to bid against themselves or only do it to a certain point if the player is really important to them.
@@nkosimataka5565 No he doesn't when players like Jonathan Kuminga will be nipping at his heels in a year or so, all he has over the young guys right now is knowledge on how to play with Steph Curry.
@@nkosimataka5565 one man’s trash is another man’s treasure
Lol as soon as the contract news came out. Jason you are quick
Ive said before and Ill say it now. Dray doesn't get suspended and they win in 2016. After he went out injuries became a huge factor and it showed in games 6/7. Theres a reason they were up 3-1 before that suspension.
things happened for a reason that our pea brain can comprehend.. we can speculate... yes.. but that road leads to where they at now... so
Lmao, Bron had better stats in the game with him than the game without him.
@@toxinqwerty ...I can see reading and comprehending is hard for you bud so I'll leave you be.
Green is very important to the GSW in every way and if GSW lost him they won’t be the say so he very very important to them
Dude had 15 points and 17 turnovers 4 games in to the finals. Steve Kerr didn't want to be down 1-3 in game 4 so he took Draymond out of the game, doing everything he can to win, and it paid off because they actually had 4 shooters + better rebounder instead of a huge offensive liability out there. Fouled out in his 5th game and almost fouled out in his 6th with 7 turnovers total. He makes his team play 4 vs 5 on offense every possession. He was getting outrebounded by superior bigs and looked much worse than Looney out there. He was emotionally out of control and begging to be ejected. He played so bad the Celtics analysts and fans didn't want him ejected.
The Warriors in the beginning of the season when they had the #1 defense rating was actually better with Draymond off the floor. He was in the worst defense rating lineups. People don't realize Steph communicates on defense as much as Draymond. Steph and GP2 finished with the best defense ratings for the season. Compare this with Gobert who consistently puts his team to top 5 defenses but without him, they're in the bottom 3. The difference in impact is enormous.
All in all, he is worth 15 million at best. He is already locked for 27 million the next season and claims he wants 35 million when he gets to age 37. That's absurd. He's not getting any better, if anything he has been on a fast decline since 2017.
He got benched for Looney in the finals. Stop it.
His importance is extremely exaggerated. He's lifted because of how good the team is. When Curry and Thompson are out he's completely obsolete.
Yea he got bench sometimes that happen sometimes you have bad game and good game and he was having a bad game and he got bench for it Peter blue
He is still important to the GSW regardless of what happen but I still don’t want GSW to give up him or make him leave they won’t find another like him and he may play one bad game one night and play a good game the next time and people do have turnover we can’t only look at the bad game
I hate that Steph gave that scrub a career, it's the reason he goes around like he's Tupac & felt comfortable calling KD a B word.
Kd not being truthful about his move was a b word move.
Has JJ replied back to Jerry West? I’ve been searching and I can’t find nothing
Jerry West is the freaking logo, he shouldn't have wasted his time even acknowledging JJ career . He is not even comparable. Jerry West way better player and after he retired he has more rings JJ won as many rings as we did .
He is the orchestra’s conductor!😎
Being with Steph and Klay and the warriors was a blessing for him. It's being in the right place at the right time and him wanting more than he is worth will be his downfall if he decides to leave.🤔

Anybody who thinks the Warriors wouldn't have kept winning with KD instead of Draymond needs to be drug tested.
I disagree, without draymond the warriors would have an average defense at best , and because so much of the warrior's offense is created from defensive plays, their offense would also be much worse. There's no debate that kd is a better player than dray, but Draymond is 100% more valuable to the warriors than kd could ever be.

the question is, is he valuable enough to command MAX Contract from GS and is He good enough to find success outside of GS, Klay and Steph?
Why is that The question ? Staying with one team is good until it’s not , the fact that one team wouldn’t let him go tells you how valuable he is . And that’s a championship team .
well we don't know if GSW is willing to sign him for max contract or just let him go if it comes to that..how much is he eligible for anyway?
Great take from a pro
I don't give af, he's not worth a got damn max contract. 💯
If he somehow gets it from another team , he better get use to the play in tournament every year.
Shut up keyboard warrior. Casual fan.
Agreed and his lack of Point producing in the finals solidify him being a 18-20m a year player. He should take a 4 year 75m extension and be greatful it was 4 years. I agree 👍
@@nasty3145 do you even understand that Steph CANT do the things he does without Draymond? Did you not notice how bad it was when Draymond was hurt?
The podcast with no pushback. Chummy chummy fraternity.

Much respect to DG I personally am not a Warriors fan but that trio is deadly.. Warriors changed the game with those three on the roster hopefully they give him the max he wants I would give it to him cause I don't see him doing this for another team no disrespect..
I'm thinking this is a negotiating tactic by Draymond and his team. They're announcing to the Warriors that he has value and is not looking to make less than he currently is making. He'll likely not get a max, but he'll be getting a raise. Ball is in the Warriors court now. They've got the Bulls conundrum. Sure, Steph is all time great, but he's never won without Draymond, as Jordan never won without Pippen.
Steph wouldve won without draymond in the last postseason. Have you seen how draymond was dominated by jokic without any help? Steph poole klay wiggins and looney were enough
Have watched maybe 20 clips of this podcast over the past year or so just surfing CZcams & I still have not heard the other guy say literally 1 single word
That’s because you’re just watching “clips,” try watching/listening to the whole podcast. He gets a few words in there 👍
Yeah dude is a great cohost
You should change your profile name to Mr. Plumber. 😂
Although he is not super offensive these days, Draymon'd impact on the Warriors is obvious after this past year's playoffs. When he was nearly MIA, the warriors were in big trouble. When Dray atleast got back to being impactful, it wasn't a match any longer.
That’s not true it was several key times when he got either kicked out fouled out or benched that helped the warriors win games
The Warriors have a far better chance of being successful without Draymond, than Draymond has a chance of being successful without the Warriors. If his entire career was with about 18 other franchises, people would have never heard of him.
Winning makes yall overrate scrubs & I hate that.

See what you are doing, now that rumors Dray is asking for a max deal. Showed on my search result, great job.
Yeah dreymond is the definition of a warrior
The Answer: Absolutely Essential
Although Dray game skill is diminishing his shot calling skills is irreplaceable. GSW will need to find another leader that can dictate players and tell them what they need to do.
Without Draymond, the Warriors wouldn‘t be a championship dynasty. Period. What he does is invaluable for playing team basketball. He‘s the kind of guy you‘d absolutely love to have in your team and absolutely hate to play against. Anyone who doesn‘t see that doesn‘t really know much about basketball.
Jj releasing this clip when all the Draymond-not a max player-news hype peaks.
True bro move, doing his part to get his friend Draymond paid
He be down playing wiggins and Poole to elevate draymond is what I don’t like hejust calls them role players but they be doing the most for the team
Draymond is critical! He is the rodman for them and he is pretty much involved in every play! He is an amazing player and people dont appreciate what he does on the court!
Are you saying he's worth a max contract?
They compliment each other ..
For me, he is very valuable to the gs. I would still not give the max tho.
The only team where Draymond DESERVES the max, is the Warriors. 10/10 if Dray leaves, he WON’T be effective on any other team the way he is with the Warriors because every other team is stupid.
@@smackddd3339 maybe not stupid but Draymond fits perfectly for what gsw needs
@@smackddd3339 🗣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 facts
Lets be honest 1/3 of nba teams are pretty stupid. I’m not saying I could do the job better, but a lot of there year to hear decisions just don’t make sense.
example: PHX why not just pay Ayton? Why’d you need IND to offer him anything? Especially if you were going to just give it to him anyways? Logically its just weird.
@@wavy2k the knicks nothing more needs to be said lmao but yeah some teams at times really do feel like they're money laundering with some of the decisions ofc most stuff is hindsight etc etc but theres so many moments where ppl say it in the present and its the same in the future
Jj how does it feel being wrong about the warriors all year?
put draymond in ny with brunson and the knicks. this is how you take the nba to the next level
JJ is still hiding after Jerry West called him a plumber 😂😂😂
People like to hate Draymond, (not jalen or JJ) but the fact is they guy has 4 rings as a starter. The legend of Draymond Green continues.
Priceless because he's the driver of the car stand still without a driver looks good but get nowhere without a good driver
Draymond had a very niche role which only gsw knows how to get the best out of him. I would consider both sides benefitted from each other
Honest answer.. Draymond doesn't have to shoot with Steph and Klay on the floor.. Why would he?????
I’m a casual but still don’t know what Draymond does. Everyone keeps saying he does everything except score but he does not seem like that at all except defensively
As they were talkin I was literally thinking there has never been a player like Draymond and had a consistent role in winning at a high level other than Rodman. And I’ll be damned if JJ didn’t say that as I started typing
The thing is Draymond initiates the offense, him Steph and Klay fir together like a puzzle
Ben Wallace
Draymond is the best fast break decision maker I’ve seen. It’s not just the defense. He is Michael Jordan in the triangle offense he just doesn’t shoot. He finds the open man before they’re open
2:55 Draymond could be a great wrestling manager, he can work a crowd and have them wrapped around his finger.
Hey JJ. You might as well been a plumber 👨🔧 yourself if you averaged 12 PPG.
Jj reddick would have been a superstar with his skillset in the 60s
Draymond is really the key cog for the warriors …Before draymond Steph and klay were labeled as soft because they were shooters and light skinned… they were deemed pretty boys and he brought the toughness to back up the shooting
Draymond is so good, he made Andrew Wiggins an All Star.
Lmaooooo all right Lesley 🤡😂
Perspective is warped here. Its the whole moneyball scenario all over again. In the terminology of that book Draymond "doesn't have the body of an MLB player" and the old scouts overlook him. With all the advanced metrics we have today they still don't quantify this type of stuff well and neither do scouts. Draymond was fortunate to be on the team he was on at the time he was or else he'd be in Europe and not a 4 time nba champ which is wild.
Do what? Defend and talking? That’s great but let’s relax
Pretty sure if the ppl who played against them said this then there’s truth behind it lmao, stay mad 4 in 8 years
How many points did he help to make?
Love Draymond, but sheesh..... Lets not overrate him
I agree completely with Brunson.
Draymond is a floor general a team player a slasher and can hit the 3 sometimes. He is a great asset because he doesn’t have an ego and is willing to make the play. Key word “make the play” a lot of cats come in and think they are the end all be all. Curry is the end all be all but even curry makes the play when needed. That’s why the warriors are so successful because it’s the true essence of unselfish basketball
All these other guys are getting the max and Draymond has easily been more important than them. So why not give it to him? Handing out maxes, he deserves it then.
Draymond is the Warriors quarterback and he’s the glue and soul of the team.
