Draymond is not a plug any player in & the production is the same type player tho.

You acting like his defense/rebounding & playmaking haven't been major contributions to the championships.

I’m not acting like anything

How did you jump to that conclusion? :dahell:

Lesbihonest, Kyrie is the better player, but I can't say if I was starting a team, that I would take him before Draymond...

If you’re STARTING a team and you take dray over kyrie, then dray is your best player

There’s no way to make that work my brother

Unless you can wait 3-4 years and draft well each time. Dray as best player will get u a bottom 5 record for sure :myman:

I wont say Draymond is close to Kyrie offensively, but that last statement is false. Draymond runs the break better than anybody on the team. He grabs boards and pushes the ball and gets defenses scrambling. Hes a good offensive decision maker and screener. To say he has no offensive impact is a lie.

Well if you’re running with Curry an Klay there’s not much a team can do to stop that

I didn’t mean he has no offensive impact at all but he reaaaally benefits from playing wit Curry an Klay

It’s a lot harder to make plays for average shooters

A lot harder to have an impact on offense when teams guard you

He’s one of the best defenders I’ve ever seen, no arguing that....but playing with Steph and klay even allows him to get away with blatant fouls and sh*t that no other player gets away with

From the below sequence. My thing is if you already agree he is one of the greatest/versatile defenders. Why is so much being done to downplay his stature & what he was brought to their team & as an individual player.

Breh game 7 in 2016 is still amazing.




All these guys do is win championships, yet they all suck according to this site hahahaha.

"These guys"

Who said anything about durant steph Klay :dahell:

That’s what I’m saying, if Draymond was on any other team he wouldn’t be so hyped like this

the ether
because he carries himself like a top tier superstar when he is a role player, its annoying. He would be more appreciated if he wasnt a loud mouth.

I was gonna say, "How did Rodman carry himself?" but someone beat me to it.

Lots of defensive specialists (Pat Beverley, Ron Artest, Bill Laimbeer, Charles Oakley) run their mouths a ton.

I think Dray's intangibles make the team better regardless of who's the best individual player on the team...

I hear you, and it sounds good in theory

But when have things ever played out like that in real life?

You could ask the same thing about a player like Kyrie as the 1st option :manny: that type of player ALWAYS needs a Draymond/rodman etc

No you can’t ask the same thing


Can you give an example of a team in history with a draymond or Rodman as the best player?

Slap yourself fam

You’re listing players who are clearly better than draymond
The only reason you are trying to make this statement is because dray is winning championships with his team. If he was on any of those teams I listed then I believe with his skill set that all those teams would have had success. Can't say they would have won championships but definitely would have been good teams
