Draymond Green changes mind on Victor Wembanyama as Defensive Player of Year with San Antonio Spurs

Welcome to the brand new Draymond Green Show YouTube channel hit subscribe so you don’t miss out on any of our content oh by the way I know I said on here a few little while back that um wimy shouldn’t be the defensive player of the year and I

Lied uh wmy should be the defensive player of the year because he is that amazing defensively but they just suck and I love coach po I think I’ve shared that with you all before like absolutely love coach pop and if I’m honest I’m still a little hurt because I didn’t get a

Chance to hug coach Po in the game uh didn’t get a chance to talk to him before the game and after the game everything was kind of going on I got a sign wimy Jersey for DJ uh which was absolutely exciting uh one that he can

Hang in his bedroom and for the next 15 to 20 years he’ll be watching arguably the best player in the league with his jersey on the wall uh and so I was very excited about that and probably a little Sidetrack to get that for DJ that I

Didn’t get a chance to hug coach pop and embrace him and that’s my guy absolutely love him uh one of the golden guys got that gold together and the relationship built there will last a lifetime so I’m very thankful for Coach pop and I’m sorry that I didn’t get a chance to say

Hi but from a distance and it just missed me at the end of the game still salty about that anyway wimy is definitely the defensive player of the year the way he impacts the game both offense I mean both on the defensive end whether it’s off the ball on the ball

Surpr when you when you start driving to the hole and like guys may have a layup maybe not and they just turn out and go the other way that’s a problem and that’s a block shot in a sense you know and no one will account for that it’s

Like a screen you go set in the screen no one’s going to give you an assist but the guy’s wide open to knock a shot down wmy you you drive into the lane and get a layup and you see wh and you just go the other way that’s a block shot and

So let’s also talk about how many of those wi be has this year we saw one last night with Christian Braun and Michael Porter Jr end up hitting the three unfortunately that Michael Porter Jun hit a three but that’s a block shot like and on block shot sometimes you get

The ball back and guess what you get it back you kick it out you hit a three offensive rebound kick it out hit a three right like that’s essentially the same thing and so uh with what wom and you know I’m I say that take it with a grain of salt uh

Obviously team record matters and everybody who say team record don’t matter is a lie um it definitely matters and they’re not quite that good not quite wy’s fault um but you kind of had to be that bad in order to get wimy and I think that San Antonio team has some

Pieces a few pieces not many but a few pieces around wimy um and that’s not counting like a Zach Collins right like Zach Collins is a vet uh he’s going to be around like and you need good vets like that solid um G to you know what you’re going to get every

Night but you know you got like KJ uh Kell um Johnson you got Devon for sale uh Trey Jones you know I think I think Trey Jones is a is a is a good point guard in this league not necessarily maybe not necessarily a starter but any

Good team is you know if you’re going to have a chance to win championships you needed really good backup and Trey Jones is absolutely that you know so I think they got a few pieces around them but they need to fill out a lot of other

Pieces and and then also figure out how do we want teams to look like what’s the best look of a team around wmy you know like you look at LeBron James always going to be some Shooters on the floor right like over the course of his years

You know you the Mike Millers the James Jones the J.R Smiths Kyle corver um the list goes on and on and on you know when they won a championship with the Lakers Kyle kosma was that shooter uh you know and so what are the teams going to look like around wimy and I

Think that’s that’s an important one but I changed my stance W wmy probably should be defensive player here what he’s doing defensively um dude had nine blocks last night like that’s against the Denver Nuggets best team in NBA nine blocks like man that’s affecting the game and and again wimy is not a

Liability on defense like you’re not just he’s not just getting blocks you know like some guys just get blocks you know guys come week side get blocks like but you can pick on them you can’t really pick on women dude can switch like he’s 74 can move his feet I don’t

Know what lab he was created in but I need to go create me a son in that lab because dude is unbelievable and I was tired as hell after that game because with wimy every possession you have to like be on because the moment he gets a

Slight Advantage right like say if I relax and he duck in the paint guess what you done because he’s so he he get to he his angles to the rim with his Lan there’s nothing you can do at that point so with him whether he’s at the

Three-point line you have to be on because guess what if he catch it and he start raising up man I had a couple contests on wiy 3s and I’m talking about they were monster contests like I’m pretty good at contestant jump shots that’s one of my specialties on the

Defensive end I come up with some blocks on three like man I had a couple monster contests on wimy I was nowhere near the ball and I thought that that was very interesting so with wimy at all point at all times no matter where he is on the

Floor you have to be on and not as tiring as hell and so I was exhausted after that game nonetheless that was a big time win for us all right the NBA season is in full swing coming down the stretch then we move right into the
