Draymond Green is one of the best defenders in the entire NBA. However, when it comes to his offensive game, he leaves a lot to be desired. Thankfully, he plays with the likes of Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. These men have helped him win four NBA titles, and if it weren't for them, Green would not be talked about as much as he is now. Overall, Green is still a great player, and there is a real case for him as a Hall of Famer. Regardless, he remains a polarizing figure as he does a lot of talking in the media.
If you watch Draymond Green on TNT or on his podcast, you understand that he loves LeBron James. Green is a member of Klutch Sports, and there have always been rumors of him linking up with James in Los Angeles. Although these rumors have never actually materialized into something real, Green's love for James is absolutely palpable. Unfortunately, sometimes Green puts himself in the same breath as LeBron. For most fans, this is totally undeserved.
Draymond Green Thinks He's Him
For instance, during his coverage of the All-Star game, Green came out and said that he feels as though no one other than LeBron has a similar resume to him. Of course, LeBron and Green both have four NBA titles. However, that is where the comparisons stop. Overall, LeBron is way better than Draymond, and the same can be said of pretty well every player at the All-Star Game. Needless to say, many fans took offense to this and roasted Green on social media. "Aside from the NBA product going downhill, we now have the NBA media getting ready be taken over by guys that just want to promote their era and how much better it is compared to the past," one fan said. "TNT will be unwatchable when Draymond becomes a full-time host.
