No doubt about it: Draymond Green is the front-runner for DPOY after the one-quarter mark of the NBA season, and I’m not sure how you could disagree after watching the video below. These two blocks in crunch time of the Warriors’ 105-100 win over the Hawks are things handed down from Mt. Olympus, and Green has a right to be psyched about them.
But not this psyched. What the hell — this is no time for Riverdance.
Draymond is figuring out that it’s not necessary to kick other players in the balls in order to be successful on defense, and that should terrify the rest of the NBA.
