Draymond Green Responds to Kevin Durant's Recent Warriors Comment
Draymond Green reacted to some recent comments made by his former Golden State Warriors teammate Kevin Durant.
After LeBron James joined the Philadelphia 76ers, Kevin Durant commented on the team's offensive capabilities, comparing them to the successful Golden State Warriors squads of the past. Durant specifically highlighted the star power of four players who averaged at least 25 points per game, asserting the 76ers' potential to be a formidable contender.
Draymond Green, a former teammate of Durant's in Golden State, addressed this assessment during a recent podcast appearance. Green acknowledged Durant's unique perspective on the game, emphasizing that "the way KD view basketball is very Uncle Drew-ish, this game will and always be about buckets." He interpreted Durant's comments as a reflection of his focus on scoring, rather than a definitive prediction of the Sixers' success.
Green also pointed out that the Sixers' roster, while impressive on paper, might not be as dominant as Durant suggested. He expressed skepticism about the Sixers being a guaranteed favorite to win the Eastern Conference, stating, "I don't know that I can agree with that, I don't really think it works." Despite this, Green acknowledged the Sixers' stacked starting lineup and their status as top favorites for the upcoming NBA season.
