Draymond Green vs The World...Day 4: Kevin Love

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Search "Draymond top 10" and you'll find plenty of kool aid-drinking clowns talking about it or defending the position. Its a minority opinion because most people arent insane, but plenty nonetheless are.

I did the search and I still don't see all these posters who believe Draymond is/was a top-10 player. More lying. It's neverending with you.

Also if Draymond was actually capable of his presence alone creating a +25 win differential like you said earlier, then you should absolutely believe he's top 10. That's top 10 impact.

The Knicks are currently ranked 25th on defense; replacing Melo with Draymond would turn them into a top-10 defensive team. That's at least 25 wins off the strength of that alone (especially given the fact that KP would have more energy for offense with Draymond anchoring the D). While Draymond wouldn't be able to replace Melo's scoring output or attract the same DA, he would however be exactly what the Knicks need on offense - a playmaker (again, especially for KP's growth and the general function of Hornacek's offense). There's enough scoring between KP, Rose and Draymond (with the help of the supporting cast) that would go a long way to replacing whatever veil of impact Melo has on offense.

I never said that at all. You're taking what I posted out of context. I said it would account for 25 wins - meaning from the start of the season. Not adding 25 wins from where they're currently at (.404). No where in my post to I ever mention that Draymond would add 25 wins. And again, it wouldn't just be Draymond alone, it would be because of Porzingis too. It would allow him to stick to his strengths (protecting the rim + spurts of help defense), and for Draymond to take care of the rest. It'd be the best defensive frontcourt in the league by a comfortable margin. At the very least the Knicks would have an identity that's conducive to winning, rather than whatever the fukk it is they're now.

They're currently at .404 with Melo on the team, which is about 33 wins for the season.
My position is that with Draymond in place of Melo (Knicks having a top-10 caliber defense with a Draymond/KP frontcourt), that it would account for 25+ wins - meaning the majority of their wins for the entire season would be due to the success of their defense (I'd see them winning around 40-44 games in total). Not a +25-win differential like you seem to think I'm suggesting.
Again, you're taking what I said out of context. We can revisit this discussion when you learn to read properly.

U give love a shyt ton of open 3s while the opposing team has to stop 2 top 5 scorers and he'd do the same. Legit that entire game was just Draymond splashing open 3s

Not only did you not pay attention when watching G7, but you didn't even bother to look at the highlights which are posted right there for you. Shameless posting.

@GoddamnyamanProf this dumb ass @Gil Scott-Heroin the same nikka who said the reason Rondo was so good on defense and winning defensive accolades was because he played with 3 HOF.

Now he don't wanna admit the same thing when it comes to Draymond

Can't argue with this dumbass

 

[KRiLL (+)]

how is Draymond barely winning, he by far the better player

nikka you don't watch basketball then...

 

[Randoug]

Putting Draymond in Melo position would mean he would have to be a primary scorer on Knicks which would affect his defense since he would have to score more instead of dishing out to top scorers and focussing on defending in transition (as he currently does in GSW). That together with the media spotlight and awful front office of Kicks, I highly doubt he would produce better results than Melo

shut ur stupid ass up. nikka he is rn

Course u a cavs fan so expecting u to say otherwise or atleast being objective aint happening.

You know its the truth

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

You know its the truth

It's not even close to being the truth. Just about every single point in that post of yours is false.

My "gimmick" of being reasonable and objective is sickening to you? Sounds like the musings of a troll. You ever take a step back and look at all the bullshyt you post? Or are you content with posting mindless nonsense?

1:03 - Wide open dunk
1:20 - Semi contested 3 assist from Harrison Barnes
1:43 - Spins and crosses over Richard Jefferson and hits contested layup
2:17 - Hits semi-contested 3 off miscommunication off screen from Speights
2:43 - Hits contested 3 off feed from Klay
2:50 - Hits contested 3 off screen from Varejao
3:04 - Hits a wide open 3 from miscommunication off screen with Curry
3:19 - Spins off of JR Smith and hits heavily contested reverse layup And 1
4:13 - Draws 3 point foul on LeBron
4:21 - Hits contested 3 off of pass from Livingston-Curry pick and roll
4:50 - Drives on LeBron and hits layup
5:12 - Putback layup off of Curry miss

So in that entire highlight video he hit one wide open three as a result of the defense focusing on Stephen Curry.

3 pointers, post spins, putback layups, crossovers and drives to the rim.

I think it's official that you nikkas don't actually watch games.

is there some type of agenda going on here...There was no possible way that Draymond is a better individual player than Carmelo and he's damn sure not better than Kevin Love as an individual player....

Yes this thread series absolutely retarded. Draymond vs Pj Tucker is what should be discussed
