Draymond Green reflects on loss to Kings, Klay Thompson's future, what's next for Steph & Warriors 

I wouldn’t want any other player in my favorite team but you bro, but if you hadn’t been suspended we would have been a top 6 seed and given a fair chance in a series. This can’t be understated enough

“We ain’t done” gonna be the quote in June 25’

5-8 games thrown away 20 pt leads…. 10-15 suspension games… all you all needed was 2-3 games of those 20ish game.. is crazy

Draymond likes talking basketball. So let's talk basketball. Sacs defense wasn't as great as you said. The offensive awareness of you guys was pretty poor. In the first 5 minutes you had Trayce rolling in a wide open lane to the basket 3 separate times and nobody fed him. Instead Klay elected to shoot over a double team, Wiggins went for a drive into the defense, and Curry dribbled into the corner and got doubled, swinging the pass cross court. A drop-off would have got a dunk from Trayce. Trayce got benched inexcusable for this. The effort level on defense, especially transition was bad. People weren't sprinting back. Communication clearly wasn't happening except on Fox doubles. But the DHOs to Keegan? Nobody stepped up. The gameplan to put Dray on Sabonis was nonsensical. It puts Trayce on Barnes, whose only offensive value is to post up in the corner as a shooter. You should have played Barnes because you can sag off, help off ball, and close out in time. Plus we all know HB is TERRIFIED of you Dray. This doesn't even touch on how many times people got caught either ball watching on defense and losing their man, or not keeping their head on a swivel on offense, dribbling up court, and getting swiped from behind. I say all of this with love of the Warriors and the game of basketball. That loss was on poor gameplan, poor execution, and poor effort. You deserved the loss on the merit. That being said, the team got significantly better by the end of the season. And I'm very high on the 4 young guys. I'm hopeful for next season. Regards, for the love of basketball.

Draymond this season is on you and Steve kerr

Colin’s ad 2 min into the video just ruined my day

As a Warriors fan, I'm sad this season is over. It really felt they were in a good place, but when you're in the play-in, one bad to awful game, and it's over. 😭😭😭😭😪😪 On to next year!Can't wait!

Big fan of yours. If you decide to play next year , please go the extra mile to get your anger in check. Cards on the table , the anger management was big problem against LeBron for the championship, loss of chemistry with Poole incident , and instrumental in this years playoff chances with suspension. Team would never been a dynasty without you , hoping for a strong next year

Why wasn’t Moody played more? Instead of Klay. It still blows my mind 🤯

I am a die hard fan of the GS Warriors, but honestly it's not so much that y'all gave games away, the team doesn't have the defensive capabilities that it had many five years ago. Everyone keeps saying that y'all need to get better offensively, but teams are going right through you guys, if the team doesn't get better 2 way players, the chances of competing for title is over, everyone thinks Charles Barkley is wrong for saying that GS is cooked but he's right unless y'all get some young players that can ball

Should of never took trayce off sabonis, dre was supposed to take Keegan and allow klay to deal with Barnes save his legs instead of chasing Murray js

Tell Klay he can't leave his amazing career as a Warrior with 0 points. Just don't make sense. We love bro 💯

If Klay doesn’t come back I’m gonna cry bro

Alot of people are saying if draymond didn't get suspended we would've had a better season. Partially true but also a Cop out for STEVE KERRS Decisions..... Kerr barely started trusting kuminga this season and still for some reason doesn't trust Moses Moody enough. Imagine those 2 guys from the beginning of the season both already having big roles whether it's starting or first off the bench(for moody) instead Kerr decides to experiment line ups til the end of the season. Love podz but he shouldn't have got that starting Job over Moody during the season especially when Kerr knows he doesn't really trust rookies in the playoffs so why are we even wasting our time? Moody helped us win a ring already and was more than ready for that role we still have yet to get to see Moses Moody unleashed and in a rhythm cause this coach treats him like a Rookie in the dog house still. It's ridiculous. Kid deserves better and I hope he gets it whether it's with or without being on this team. Kerr has handled him so poorly

GS is not big enough or have enough consistent offense other than Curry to compete. The NBA has changed alot over the last 2 years, the big man is back and everyone can shoot.

You are the reason why GSW is out of the playoffs. The 20 games that you missed due to suspension and getting your head right was the reason the Dubs did not get a better record that could have placed the team in the Top 6 of the West standings. To hear you blame the team not winning 7 games shows a lack of accountability on your end. You caused the Warriors this season's potential playoff run!

How come nobody is talking about Wiggins laziness?

I blame Kerr for this loss how the hell you play Podz 24 minutes and Chris Paul only18 minutes and Moody 15 minutes. And he should have started Looney.

How many of those games did your team lose because of your actions or you not being there for with the team? Dude, wake up.

It's tough, but a new season and a fresh start it's the best thing for the GSW. Let's go Dray!! Much love man

Just don’t get suspended next year

As a grizz fan I’ve always respected you. Anyone that says they wouldn’t want you on their team doesn’t know basketball. You passion for the game is insane and it would be awesome to see you with the TNT crew, coaching, or in a GM role after your playing days are over.

With the way the season turned out to be, as a fan I am happy the season is done because this team was not connected from game 1 to game 82. And it started with you, OG!! Regroup and get ready for next season

"We not done!" Fing Facts Warriors trio still got more changes to make for others to follow. 1 more for the thumb. "We not done!"

Draymond, thanks for your efforts on the court and on your show!

I absolutely love being able to listen to someone that just played in a game speak about it. Keep doing you dray

Forever grateful for the rings y’all brought to the Town. We enjoyed every moment and will continue to enjoy it! Respect 🫡 💙💛⚡️

I will not watch any other team during the playoffs 😢. Miss my Worries!!!

Dray with you suspended this year we lost 8 games. If we had you in those games and won at least half of them we could’ve been the 5th or 6th seed. Just shows you how important you are to our team. Gotta learn from mistakes and do better. We’ll be back sooner than later, can’t ever count out champions. 💯

Wishing y'all success next year. 💪🏽

I had hope for the post season but I’m still happy with my team. Thanks for going out there and playing hard

That Colin Cowherd betting ad is revolting.

Ay, good news is, you can now be a full time podcaster and talk about the playoffs and finals now

looking forward to your playoff converge this year!

Thanks for all the good times. The Worriors, 49ers, Giants and all the teams were wining divisions and championships , even the Raiders helped me through a difficult time period in my life. We moved to Moraga Ca in 2009 through 2016 and I remember going to theWarrior champion celebration party in Okland. You had the mike and dominated like on the court. My wife of 30 years passed away from cancer in Jan.2023. She was a saint. Her birthday was yesterday. We had a son now 26 non verbal Autistic trying to get on a kidney transplant list. Hope you go into coaching. Love your passion for the game.

Mental health my dudes. That's the key. We got to a good place after the all star break because it looks like individual guys and the team were in a much better mindspace. Team chemistry looked so much better too... and the wins started coming... and the joy came along with it. If we come into October locked in and in a good place mentally, we're looking at a really good season ahead. GO DUBS!!!

You had control over the whole season. Words are shite when you dont own it. The 6 games you mentioned yes - but what about all your drama? Own it!

How about getting a center and a better wing an add some size /scoring coming off the bench

Dray, Klay and 30 we need yall! Dray we just need you to stay on the floor I got faith in my warriors 💯

If not for the play in your season was over already.

what a tough end :(... way too many games got away from us early in the year.... hard to forget some of the horrible officiating that happened at that time.

Notifications on bro your podcast 🔥

Hey man, you did great. Klay is slowly entering that groove so hopefully he sticks around.

Draymond doesn't get suspended and this team places no worse than the 6 and they are still playing.

I think we might have seen Klay's last Warriors' game. What a player he has been for them though - one of Warrior's all time greats.

Steve Kerr has made soo many wrong decisions (not mistakes) this season. With Moody, with Kuminga, with Steph's minutes, with Klay. And in perhaps the most important game you suddenly change TJD's place on the floor. Made him go from center to PF; Of course he was gonna struggle he's a rookie! And it's on Dray too with the suspension and anger management issues, which have affected us at different times during the dynasty (2016 finals, beefing with KD, punching Poole, getting Indefinitely suspended, getting ejected throughout his career). He has to do and be better. Given all of that I still think we need another star paired up alongside Steph. Plus the luxury tax will be interesting to see too Onwards, and hopefully upwards Dubs

Thanks for the great videos 🤫

“Never been done this early” bro we literally lost in the play in 2021 😂

Y’all allow so many threes Kerr gotta be traded to Washington for Poole

You said you've never been done this early....I thought you guys lost 1 other time in the play in...am I wrong? I'm Denver fan but much respect to you Draymond. Hl HOF lock,& 1 of the best defenders ever...1 of the highest basketball iq ever-on a LeBron or Jokic level in that respect. And I think ya also played in at least 1 Final 4,& at least 1/Olympic gold-maybe 2-which all counts towards HOF.

tell klay we love him and want all yall to be together til the very end ✊🏽🌉🌁

Now Draymond you get to relax spend money travel and enjoy life for 6 months live your dream brotha

I want draymond as a warrior till he retires we love you green

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Draymond. Wishing you all the best next year. Hope you guys can work out a good new contract for Klay.

So glad to hear you say "we ain't done" because....we love our DUBS!! Next year!!

It’s so many people happy the Warriors lost. I wished they could’ve won and been in the playoffs but I’m not mad. I truly believe they will do it again with their core players.

Should’ve signed Klay’s extension. It clearly hounded him all year and in that last game.

In one of your guest appearances (I think in PG podcast) you mentioned the things necessary/conducive to preparing for a game on match day. Can you elaborate a bit more on that topic, please? Thank you, Dray.

Curious was that something that was talked around in the previous years? regarding the big 3 playing again

TALK ON THE COURT DRAY.

You did the right thing sliding bro. Don’t let them tell you different.

You make so much sense love your pod cast

I was at the game, these guys are some of the best players to ever touch the ball, the kings fan in me was happy we can still keep playing, but as a lifelong bay area resident, always supported the Dubs (y'all kept me sane during our rough seasons). Even saw klays 37pt 3rd qtr in person you don't forget that kind of greatness. Feeling the pain right now, they wont break up the 3, loosing cp3 may be a good thing , many players are going to be available this off season so Dubs will some good options. Wish y'all the best. Norcal vs the world.

Keep the group together don't break them up

I believe Klay will be back and the Warriors will be back at their best! I still believe in the Warriors. I’m a real fan for life. Win or Lose I’m still riding with them. LetsGoWarriors 2025

Will always be champs! Waaaaarrrriioorsssss💙💛

The smile while saying « Klay didn’t score only once before, because he was ejected… I also got ejected that game 😁 » can kill me 😭

Well, I hope that next season, you become a more disciplined player and be there for the team. Have a great off-season, but just remember, your suspension plated a part in this season as well, especially when you knew the team needed you.. I will say, this year you played much better. But build your confidence in shooting your shot. Enjoy. Your off-season with your family. I am warriors for life . Blessings

Man bro everyone who wants Klay gone ain’t real warriors fans. I still believe the warriors can still win a championship with Steph dray and Klay

AT The end of your show you said.. 'FROM A CHAMP' That's a great title for your PODCAST..

Draymonds suspension really costed Warriors season.

It’s good Draymond we’ll regroups and go get next year title

I don't understand the logic of you guys who keep saying shit like "Dray, if you would have not been suspended then we'd have been the #6 seed". If we get dog walked by a team that's a #9 seed and missing really big pieces, what makes you think it would have been more than a 5 game series against the #3 seed?? Especially considering the #3 seed has the dubs biggest weakness right now being a dominant interior defender?? So you guys are just mad that the dubs didn't get a chance to get swept? Get over it, the dubs were trash this year and weren't going anywhere with that roster construction.

Dray all love playa back at it next year LG!

Been a warrior fan from Oakland all my life! This team was Magical to the real fans! Loyal to the soil! Bring Klay back!

Your suspension cost warriors a playoff spot. If I were you, I'd stay away from making a podcast for a month or two just out of shame.

The front office brought in Chris Paul to save the day 😅?????

The comments about Dray taking accountability for his suspension are weird as hell. The man made a public apology. Then came on the pod and elaborated in multiple episodes. Yes, it played a part. But the Dubs loss games they shouldn’t have and didn’t click together early enough in the season. That being said, this is another year the core and some upcoming young guys got some experience. If Klay stays and maybe some roster improvements are made, GS state can most definitely win at least one more championship.

Klay should’ve got the extension.. step and klay needed a new team mate

Dray y’all really should retire together and go down in history as the best Big 3 ever to play in the league.

What's annoying is hearing you talk after you completely effed up the season for your team.

Draymond...you are awesome. You are different on the floor vs on these VLOGS!!!! God bless you!

I love the podcast keep it up drey. Looking forward to seeing what the warriors do next season (hopefully with klay)

Klay had a good run, but we gotta let him go. 0-10 in the biggest game of the season, Steph shouldve had those shots. Its sad but its time to move on

Hello Draymond - Hope this msg reaches you. First thing, I am a fan of Golden State Warriors and I am a general audience. I love Steph, Klay and you. But, I have some inputs for you to make GS a better team. 1. Be more positive and stop thinking about the retirement and make statements like the management should take care of you etc. Please be of the mindset that there is no retirement and you fight like a dog on the court everyday until you no longer can walk. That is how you win another championship. Stop thinking that your 4 championships are your last and it is time to just sit and keep celebrating those titles. 2. Be available for the team. You keep getting suspended for silly reasons. It hurts the team directly. A small guy like Steph can carry so much without much defense in the team. 3. When Steph had Pool as the main second scorer, you hurt the team by punching him and hurt the team chemistry. I hope that thing never happened, what ever might be the reason. Please make sure your team chemistry is strong. 4. Stop trying to laugh out your suspensions. Be more serious and be more focussed and repent for the suspensions rather than taking it easy and be available. This is a repeat point, bcs this is important. GS would have won 5-6 titles already if you were more available, dedicated and make intelligent decisions in few situations. 5. Please do the shows only when you are absolutely free and not on game days, so you can focus on game strategy’s rather than post retirement RU-vid channel content. If you speak about retirement benefits when playing actively, your team will also get lazy and think that the run was over and they start thinking about retirement benefits too. Hope you take it positive Draymond. Let’s go Warriors and let’s win a 5th championship and be among games greatest 5 championship winners like Magic, Duncan. Right now Steph, Klay and you are on par with Shaq and Lebron. But, your legacy grows A LOT if you get that 5th ring and Lebron who is from your generation is stuck at four.

Draymond you are very knowledgeable about all things basketball, I am glad you started this podcast I enjoy watching it a lot thank you

When you breakdown games of the playoffs please add clips. That would make understanding what you're saying waaay easier

Congratulations on making it so long in the nba and not letting being a 2nd round pick stop you but allowing it to motivate you! Congrats on being a 4x champion and working on not getting ejected but keeping the passion

I think Andre Drummond would be great for Golden State as a potential those rebounds for GS would be killer vs other teams

Excellent Podcast Draymond. I appreciate your assessment of this Season! Now get in the Gym and work on your 3-pointer! Next season you're going to need it!

I hope in the free agency. You can get a LEGIT big man that will give the Warriors an inside presence.

I want to start out by saying the past season + this season were extremely tough for the team themselves + us fans. The team dealt w/off the court "drama" + on the court Injuries which resulted in the team not having the ability to win most of their games. Yes the players blew some leads which in those were losses but I am not worried about that going into the offseason. I think this off-season is gonna be 1 of real change 1 which I hope will result in the team coming back stronger next season for hopefully another successful season for the Dubs.

You and LEBRON have the uncanny talent to visually recall every aspect of a game. AMAZING

It’s nobody’s fault. Sacramento just happened to have an amazing game that night, and Keegan Murray was lit 🔥 up like the sun.

I can’t imagine the Warriors without the big 3!! Praying that Klay comes back. 💙💛

Dray you should’ve guarded Murray and let trayce guard sabonis. May not be the best match up for trayce but a good learning experience for him besides that good try on the season man. Lets get back to the championship form!

No break down on kings vs pels?

Dubs fans always got your back Draymond!

10/10 episode dray keep being great ring 5 nxt yr

I think a lot of yall see this season as a negative. lol. Hate to tell yall this but without Drays suspension, yall wouldn’t had found out the potential of Brandon and Trace. Warriors were not going to win the chip this year. At all. Even if they were the 4-6 seed. They just don’t have enough talent but the future is bright cause the rookies. Build up trace. Jonathan got to become a more consistent second-third level scorer. Trade for a younger 3 and D guy in loss of Klay. Brandon become a younger cp3 and put the ball in his hand more to take load off Steph. And I think it’s possible to go on one last run for dray and Steph. Either way you have to go all in for Steph. They owe him that.
