Draymond: The NBA is boring and has no substance

[10bandz]

Draymond calls NBA games boring: 'No substance'

Draymond Green says he thinks the modern NBA game has become "boring," arguing that there's not enough intention behind what offenses do.

www.espn.com

Then the four-time champion with the Golden State Warriors was asked a simple question: Does he think the NBA game is boring?

"Absolutely," he said.

But the NBA keeps hearing the question about the on-court product. And Green is among those that think issues exist. He cited an interview he recently saw where the late Kobe Bryant, who died in 2020, called the game "accidental basketball."

"It's all penetrate and pitch," Bryant said in that interview. "You may make the shot, you may not."

Said Green: "He couldn't have been more right."

Green talked about a recent Warriors game against the Los Angeles Lakers and how it was "refreshing" to go against a thinker like LeBron James, who is notorious for finding weaknesses and exploiting them.

"Every possession is some type of chess move," Green said. "You don't get that today in the NBA, often. ... You don't just get that on a regular basis. It's just who can run faster, who can hit more 3s. It's no substance. I think it's very boring."

@Gil Scott-Heroin been fighting tooth and nail to defend the modern NBA yet the player he dikkrides the most says the opposite After Bron/Steph/KD retire it could get real ugly

I can maybe sum up this problem. I'm an OG basketball fan. My team is mid. I hooped growing up. I want to learn more technical aspects of the game and regular media teaches nothing..

My team the wizards have made the decision to go young and we might suck for the unforseeable future. Been following them and obsessed over every move they made since Gilbert Arenas. Now his son is up but .. I got shyt to do. I can't sit around watching a three hour telecast of a game where I feel worse about the outcome than the players who actually got their ass physically handed to them. And maybe at the beginning thought the vegas forecast was wrong but nah. We shyt.


So why watch. Don't give a fukk about the other teams and already figured out finals is east has Cavs and Boston. West has OkC. A bunch of young teams that older teams like golden state and LA are gearing to pass.

So why watch? Plus because nba is more international now and the times are not the type of times to be up watching these games ( most games are at 3 am) even pre NBA players in Europe never watched games cause of time. So I stream when I can or watch replay on other sites unmentioned but check my history.

So me a big ass fan has inconvenient times. The team I love not big enough to be played on overseas media. The regular tv pundits talk shyt about the product and seem to know less about the players than I do as a die hard fan.

He's lucky he's not in the 90s because the bullying he tries on today's players wouldn't work back then

Try that shyt on Xavier McDaniel, Rick Mahorn, Charles Oakley, etc.

That c00n @Gil Scott-Heroin about to short circuit reading this from his favorite player

 

[KFBF]

Draymond seem like he's a bigger fan of Bron than Steph. Klutch must have some dirt on him or something because he goes above and beyond with the glazing.

 

[knickscrusaderm]

Draymond do you fukking play chess out there nikka?? GS been hiding your offensive deficiencies for years by having this trash nikka play traffic cop at the top of the key

You think nikkas turning on the game to watch you? Bagless nikka been the epitome of boring hoops. We don't love you like that never did!

Gil, get your mans!

 

[Da_Eggman]

is there anything likable about this guy at all

 

[KFBF]

I don't get how drive and kick is invalid but Steph running in circles until he's open and shoots a three (obvious oversimplification) is peak basketball intelligence.

Old player thinks younger players running faster an unfair advantage. He's not having as much fun now that they're losing? Clown.

 

[PatCake]

Blame your teammates Steph Curry and especially Klay Thompson who probably has the lowest BB IQ and shot selection in NBA history

 

[god shamgod]

None of this in todays wakk ass nba cuz the shots aren’t “efficient”

Just jack 3’s all game
