Golden State Warriors: Draymond Green vocal about NBA Playoffs
By Tony Pesta
Draymond Green has never been shy, but the Golden State Warriors’ star has been louder than usual in voicing his opinion over the NBA Finals.
While it has always been a treat to watch Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors compete in the NBA Finals – his recent twitter rants have almost made up for his absence on the court. Since Draymond isn’t actively playing, he has plenty of time to show off his chops as an analyst.
Green has been live-tweeting his opinion throughout various games of the playoffs. The former Defensive Player of the Year has one of the highest IQ’s in basketball and is putting his experience on full display but schooling people on twitter.
One of his main focal points has been to expose the ones who claim they know basketball. It’s clear Green is tired of hearing opinions from people who he thinks don’t truly understand the game.
His analysis thus far has been intriguing. It’s no surprise that he feels Jae Crowder deserves more credit – seeing as how the two have similar approaches to the game. Crowder has made a point to do all of the little things for Miami and that is a key reason they stole Game 3 of the Finals. According to Green, this makes Crowder a top three member of the roster.
Before the finals, Green appeared on Inside the NBA multiple times to share his opinion alongside former players and current analysts. Green held his own as a TV personality and showed a bright future for this type of role if he chooses to pursue a media path after his career is over.
I would love to see more of Green’s takes as his knowledge of the game is vast and he is always entertaining. However, we will likely have to wait to hear his thoughts on the playoffs again as the Warriors look to return to the floor strong next season.
