[NBACentral] Draymond Green believes Jalen Brunson followed his example by taking a pay cut



Green said "I signed that four-year contract for $100 million. If I waited, I could’ve gotten four for $180 million, but I needed to lock my money in. I’d rather lock that $100 million in to know that I have that $100 million – chasing that extra $60 million or $80 million and then I don’t get it. I just wasn’t willing to take that risk.”

    It’s just embarrassing at this point. Just go away, man. Go start a show with Stephen A., so we can all just tune out.

  2. I am not interested in Draymond Green’s opinions.

    I fear for this mans media career. I guarantee he is going to be a consistent NY agitator. I’m already over him and he hasn’t even retired yet so we’re just getting a taste

  4. TheDirtyBurt

    Draymond actually gave Naismith the idea to use peach baskets!

  5. mattbrianjess

    He really should just a 5% tithe to Curry every season

    I also inspired Jalen Brunson when I didn’t get an annual raise this year to save my company money

  7. BuckDestiny

    He claims Brunson followed his example, by completely misrepresenting the sole reason for Brunson taking a pay cut in the first place.

    Main character syndrome. Dude is such a clown.

    Of course draymond being the #1 option for the golden state warriors took that pay cut to help keep his role players like curry and klay on the team.

    Draymond also told my mother to give my dad a chance, so he’s the reason I’m alive

  10. I saw the jeff teague clip. Didn’t sound like Green believes Brunson folllowed in Green’s footsteps. More like he knows Brunson just did the same thing as him (securing the bag now instead of waiting for more). He wasn’t trying to say “Brunson saw what i did, and chose to do it too!”.

    The warriors barely wanted to pay draymond the 100M, no way would he have gotten 180M. Brunson definitely would have gotten the max

    I hope Jalen Brunson never follows Draymond’s example in any regard outside of tough defense and playmaking

  13. shortchangehero86

    This era of reporting /media is the absolute worst.

    If you watched the podcast it was as soon as the news dropped, not saying this isn’t dumb (he is) but it was without context that he could sign the super super max in 5 years.

    Narcissist thinks everyone else feels the same way about him

  16. Smooth-Exhibit

    Hey Draymond! I took a pay cut too. My employer should thank me for being such a great team player!

  17. LeonRoseSignsMVP

    I hope Jalen follows Green by kicking Green in the nuts

     Draymond Green needs to be banned from this sub

  19. Ronnie2kDropCode

    It’s crazy this guy got this big of an ego by standing at the top of the key and passing to Steph and Klay lmao

  20. He’s such an idiot. He got his money because Steph cried to the front office that he needed Draymond. Between declining skill, advanced age and just having so much baggage, Draymond would be an MLE guy to just about every other team in the league.
