  1. The thing is with Draymond, the triple single narrative, most of the stuff he does isnt on the stuff sheet. Most of his passes before the basket is the assist that turns into an assist because he assess the situation so well, his connection to curry is almost symbiotic, he knows where Steph would be before Steph even gets there, hes a defensive menace, and can mess up the other players mentally.

  2. You have to bring up there is a difference between good defense and lack of offensive player skill. This is a Hella casual analysis. He doesn’t take number one assignments. And when he was younger, Klay Thompson took the number one assignment. This video is a good showcase of lack of offensive players skill while he roams. This is a good defense. What his answer for Jokić? What’s his answer for current Jaylen Brown? Damn near anybody can guard anybody if you only need them to guard for a few moments. Love your content, but you gotta be able to see through the weeds. If you look back through these highlights, it’s a bunch of non-scorers being guarded and or hacked.

  3. The way to play Dray in the post is to bait fouls
    Green always wraps his arms around big defenders and traps them.
    They just need to pull their arms through and there will be easy foul calls for the refs.

  4. Hilarious that your video saying Green is a defensive genius is actually a case for Klutch players getting friendly calls…he is constantly getting away with fouls…you need to call it what it is

  5. I saw the Celtics game and immediately thought holy smoke Draymond is such a good basketball player
    The play in particular that really blew my mind was when he manipulated a 2 vs 1 to throw a lob that he easily took down, it was insane
    5h later you validated my opinion by dropping this vid, thank you

    And lets not forget his playmaking. I honestly think he is a top 3-5 playmakers in the league

  6. You forgot to mention that one of the things that make Draymond a good defender is that he keeps fouling opponents on most possessions but officials do not call these fouls because of his constant objections and the fact that he plays for a dynasty.
    To say that Draymond "make reads better than everybody" made me lose any respect I had for you.
    I can't see anything extraordinary in any of the footage in this video.

    You need to look up the word "smother" in the dictionary. If it has the meaning you are using here, then I can smother KD's shots.
