welcome to the brand new Draymond Green Show YouTube channel hit subscribe so you don’t miss out on any of our content coach I gotta ask you who’s the greatest Raptor of all time uh Kyle Lowry I agree I agree it’s unbelievable what Kyle was able to do um going to Toronto kind of finding his foot and I think what Kyle got to Toronto in like year seven or eight or something like that had never been in a star finds his footing um can you talk to me about uh Love Low by the way as you know had an opportunity to win a gold medal with him um appreciate that by the way thank you for that absolutely like can you talk to me uh about just what Kyle Lowry brought to the Raptors organization yeah listen I think um I got there right at that kind of start of that he was he was just kind of a part-time starter um this would have been 2013 I think so a while ago um man I don’t know he just he just his competitive fire um he’s one of those guys you know I throw him in I throw him in the same bucket as you that that they just can’t help themselves when it’s time to compete like there’s no way they’re not competing at something you know like something’s going to turn on and it’s going to happen it’s just so deeply ingrained in him I think he brought that I never seen I mean again L comparisons to you right like I never seen a guy like in a flurry of four minutes like do so much you know like bang a bang a shot you know come down take a charge come down you know knock somebody over lay it in come steal one like it’s just like this Whirlwind of of of winning you know like a whirlwind of winning and in like 90 seconds or something right and I just uh you just can’t help but love that it’s like you know I I people who you know he’s number one who who you ever seen play the hardest in your life and for me it’s it’s him you know like um that I’ve coached right so um that’s it he brought that I think he brought once he started you know uh getting better progressing the team started winning the success he just kept expanding on all that and and just kept riding that wave and I think he continues to do it I mean I think six six all stars and two gold medals and that’s unbelievable I think for him right and and it’s just he continues to just do a lot of it I mean he’s like six foot tall right he does it all with a lot of heart and toughness absolutely and let’s not forget NBA champions that’s that’s a big one yeah man that’s right gold metal six All Stars NBA champion yeah kidding absolutely and speaking of Kyle lari as a 12E NBA veteran recovery is very important to me as I continue to get a little older the body just doesn’t bounce back the way it used to so I’m a big fan of hyper ice especially their normat Tech boots what’s great about the new normat tech Elite is that they dish all the extra hoses and control units from the old model this one is fully self-contained with a small set of buttons to select your compression level super easy to travel with and to get set up after a hard workout or a big game on top of that the normat tech Elite packs 4 hours of battery life that’s enough juice to get full Le compression Cycles in before games after games and even on on the plane and don’t get me started on the tech inside this thing hyper ice has been pioneering recovery science for years and the brand new normat tech Elite takes it to another dimension with seven different compression levels to choose from but it’s not just for pro athletes everyone can get their hands on these to help with recovery increasing circulation and reducing swelling and

NBA Finals run I think you changed something in the NBA with a move that you made during that NBA Finals it’s like something we didn’t normally see in NBA games and I just got to ask the question because I need to know who I need to be upset at because it absolutely crushes you guys decided to go boxing one on us obviously KD was out um and you guys go box and one on Steph and it threw through the entire rhythm of our offense off and I just want to know whose [ __ ] call was that because no one does boxing one in the NBA and out of nowhere you come with a boxing one in the NBA Finals whose call was that well like all that stuff Draymond um since we were just talking about Kyle I’m gonna I’m gonna pull him into this like listen I I coached in a lot of funky places right I coach I coach in Brighton England ausen Belgium Birmingham England uh you know you you you name it uh de Mo in Iowa Enid Oklahoma maen Texas and sometimes when you’re in some of these places you’re just like you know this guy’s all this is this we got to stop let’s try this box in one so isn’t like I hadn’t used it before but in saying that I kind of grabbed Kyle and I drew up the I said you’re going to go here and and I put FR on I’m going boxing one I’m put R nose to nose on Draymond 94 ft and and you’re going to be in the top of the two two Zone and he goes let’s do it so he kind of he kind of he kind of gave me the and he took it to the timeout and said we’re doing this man watch this you know so you know how that goes you you need to buy in from the from the guys and uh so 5050 me and Kyle maybe I don’t know that’s great man that I’m telling you when we saw that B it’s like you couldn’t hit a shot like no one was accustomed to it I think people have gotten a little more accustomed to it now like I know we have things now to attack the boxing one which I mean you kind of got to have something to attack the boxing one after it cost you a championship like the nightmare of seeing the boxing you’re using it now now you guys are using it now we most definitely use it now it cost you a championship you better start using it right like I just believe and it’s like we forgot how to shoot we forgot how to dribble we forgot how to pass it was unbelievable the timing of it and I don’t know to make that call I don’t think you get enough credit for it to make that call and quite frankly most people that be talking about basketball don’t have a probably don’t even remember you did that because they don’t have a [ __ ] clue but to make that call in the NBA finals and go boxing one man that took some balls and I tip my hat to you uh by the way you used to wear your Nick nurse hat I’m happy to see you with your 76er hat because when you wore your Nick nurse hat I just used to try to find [ __ ] to piss me off and I’m like that coach got on a hat that says his name like let me just find something to piss me off you ain’t the only one that got mad I just want to let you make it feel better all that stuff from that Nick nurse hat went to the foundation so the money was the money was channeled in in in a good place all right funny man absolutely love it we’re this close to crowning an NBA champion I like the Celtics by the way in six Jaylen Brown’s going to be my MVP and I love the Celtics in game one but sign up 90 seconds put in the code colins c o l i n draftking sports book an official sports betting partner of the NBA if you’re a new customer bet five bucks that’s it just bet five bucks and you’ll get 150 bucks instantly in bonus bets the code Collins c l i n shows them that you’re a new customer to get 15 50 bucks in bonus bets only on DraftKings the crown is yours I’m leaning Celtics in six baby [Music]

lets go!
Glad Draymond, Nick and I agree. Kyle Lowry is the greatest Raptor of All Time. Vince Carter is the most Iconic, DeMar DeRozan is the Most Beloved. Kawhi Leonard was the most Valuable to wear a Raptors uniform. Lowry fits in all three of those categories. Just like how unquestioned Shaq is the Most Dominant Player of all time.
Bosh. Carter or tracy mcgrady kawhi. not poopy kyle
It worked on the Bucks too 😅
You can tell why his players love him. Nurse came up with the box and one idea but gave the credit to kyle. This was a good episode.
