Draymond Greene is overrated

[Teanett]

Always thought he's a loquacious, smaller, poor man's Anthony Mason or Xavier McDaniel.

He's an above average defensive player but not what his hype makes one believe.
Klay, Iggy and Bogut are more impactful than him.

When faced with constant athletic length, he crumbles.

Adams, Ibaka, and Durant have done a number on him.

idc how bad Draymond's been the last 2 games, these overreactions are unbelievable. Less impactful than Iggy or Klay, those are perimeter defenders Draymond does so much more for that defense. McDaniel is a terrible comparison, he's a wing not a pf and their skillsets and roles are completely different. The only similarity is the trashtalking, he's more like ron artest. Anthony Mason wasn't better; never could shoot it like Draymond wasn't as good a passer.

overrated is a little harsh.

and the writing players' names wrong shtick continues...

If you said rich man's Anthony Mason you'd have me. That's the best comp for him. He's not going to be your heavy lifter, but if you have 1 or 2 of those, he's the ultimate complement. His defensive versatility, 3 point shooting, ability to pass and initiate the offense and rebounding make him an extremely interesting and well rounded player. If you gameplan for him, you can take him away though. The problem is, Steph isn't making you pay for gameplanning for Draymond right now.

I believe Mase would have done a similar job if he played on this warrior team.
He wouldnt be the shooter Draymond is, but he wouldnt crumble against Stevens and Ibaka.

Draymond is a class act. He knew he deserved the suspension after game 3 so he decided to not show up for game 4.

Exactly. But that doesn't change the fact that he picked one of the worst times possible to play this way.

lmaoo!

as far as draymond, I wouldn't say he's overrated. the system he plays in however along with the quality of the players around him enhance his abilities.

raynaud green is not overrated

[Lebron23]

I thought he was capable of putting up quality numbers without Klay and Curry, but dude is having a horrible season. At least Prime Mason was putting up All Star numbers when he played for the Heat and Hornets. Draymond doesn't have an alpha male mentality. He should be leading this Warriors team in scoring not Eric Pascal, and D'lo.

[72-10]

well, this has certainly changed since the original, no longer just "above average" defender...

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

in 2016 he was legit since he could hit 3s and 2017 too

ever since weve learned he cant shoot in recent seasons hes been a terrible offensive player
