Draymond Green has become a very controversial player in the NBA, and years and experience haven’t changed anything for a man who every now and then makes something that raises eyebrows around the league.
Green isn’t shy to go against anybody in the league and yell whatever goes through his mind at any moment, which is why he was named the biggest trash-talker in the NBA by other players.
Who talks the most trash on the court?
1. Draymond Green: 26.3%
2. Patrick Beverley: 25.2%
3. Dillon Brooks: 14.1%
4. Other*: 13.1%
5. Devin Booker: 7.1%
6. Joe Ingles: 4%
7. Luka Doncic: 3%
8. “The Memphis kids”: 3%
9. Joel Embiid: 2%
10. Chris Paul: 2%
Note: “Other” includes Dewayne Dedmon, Kevin Durant, Deandre Jordan, Caris LeVert, Ja Morant, Georges Niang, Bobby Portis, Josh Richardson, D’Angelo Russell, Marcus Smart, Klay Thompson, Russell Westbrook and Jalen Williams. Each received one vote.
Green was followed closely by another controversial player, Patrick Beverley, but most of the players mentioned Green as the one above the rest. This makes all the sense in the world since Draymond is never quiet during games, which causes players to lose their minds.
“For sure, Draymond,” a rival player said. “If you’ve never seen it before, it’s unbelievable. Unfiltered broadcast of him talking? No, I don’t think you’d want that. I think it’s too much.”
“Another player said: ‘I actually don’t mind his trash talk. I think it gets himself going. Sometimes he’s doing it to get under guys’ skin, but it’s getting himself going. He’s playing well when he’s running his mouth, so I actually don’t mind it.'”
Draymond has earned his reputation around the league, and nothing will change for him anytime soon. New faces like Dillon Brooks have emerged to try to take his throne, but the Warriors legend remains strong.
Draymond Green Suspended For Game 3 Of Kings vs. Warriors Series
Green keeps doing his thing on the court, being a great facilitator for the Golden State Warriors, but sometimes, in the heat of the game, a liability too. The 4x NBA champion recently starred in a controversial moment when he stomped on Domantas Sabonis’ chest.
He ended up being ejected from the game and then suspended for the next match. The Warriors know that Green is crucial to them, but they also know that Green’s character can be counterproductive. Hopefully, as the team’s GM said, he can learn from this and be better for his team, especially now that they’re 0-2 for the first time in this era.
