Duke's Kyrie Irving Pours In 31 Vs. Draymond Green & Michigan State | ACC Basketball Classic

[@thebrotherhood6391]

I also thought of Melo and Durant along with curry, Zion Williamson(if he can ever stay healthy) d-wade and I go back just far enough to watch Larry Johnson at unlv who isn't in the category as these other guys but I knew as soon as I seen him play 1 game that he would have a very good nba career, he was unstoppable in college and for a few years in the nba.

[@HarrisonHollers]

Irving and Embiid were injured a lot though? The best college basketball player I saw was Shane Battier. Best basketball players who had NBA star talent: Carmelo won a National Championship. Durant even if he wasn’t as good as he would be, he had a mentality and look that reminded me of Jordan and Kobe. Pissed off, extremely serious, I’m going to abuse my opponent. He went 2 but exceeded many people’s expectations being able to score all over the court. His future teammate was another - Russell Westbrook. Dude jumped out of the gym and had that other gear to fly by guys. He didn’t really play Point Guard at UCLA but he had Kevin Love throwing deep passes half way down the court for instantaneous fast break points.

[@jimmynguyen7969]

draymond pulled a shaq. We'll look back and talk about it later on but he could have carried a little bit if he didn't give up offensively. The year before KD joined the warriors. Draymond looked like a passive krogers version of LBJ that focused on defense. Cause he was actually shooting pretty well from deep. Slowly creeping towards 40% from distance. Green was actually shooting 39% from distance because he was open. Attacking the paint when it was open or vs obvious mismatches. He was going to develop into something that would just fit perfectly with curry and klay and we're talking about like super star 3. The moment KD joined it just ended completely offensively. Draymond was going to be one of those players that would flirt with triple doubles but they always allowed that forward to eat. barnes - kd-wiggins. That takes away from dray but in reality the warriors could have still been a threat even without KD-wiggins ect. Dray would have averaged something like 18-20ppg at his peak 9 rebounds 9+ assists. good defense and even help rim protection assuming they have a center. He can guard almost anyone pretty efficiently. A dude like that who looks for klay and curry? He could have been a HUGE offensive threat. Curry and klay opens up ANY facilitator. It's like a freaking dream come true but draymond made the decision and 3 of the best shooters in the league would take any shot over him and he pushed that. So yeah he was playing with bums and even played like a bum but man seeing him alone like that and not scoring just makes me think of that 2016 year. Bro dray was EFFICIENT. more efficient then kobe. As efficient as kd-lbj. He was open because of klay and curry and idk what his deal was man. He could have made the warriors A SUPER SUPER dynasty. Green shooting 38%+ open 3. Now in reality green wants people to slack on him so he could get in position to screen better for curry and klay so i get it but god damn it pisses me off. The dude would get you 13-14 points per 10 attempts. That's GOOD. kd curry and lbj takes 19.5-21 attempts to grab you 27ppg+. Draymond was that efficient with those open looks and mismatches. he threw it all away cause of KD lol
