The Golden State Warriors are coming off another disappointing season. They fell short of their championship hopes in the playoffs. Yet, Draymond Green believes the narrative will change soon. The Warriors forward confidently declared that Golden State will capture the NBA title in the 2025-26 season<\/a>.<\/p>\n Green shared his bold outlook during a recent appearance on Kai Cenat\u2019s stream, where the discussion also turned toward the heated GOAT debate between Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Green explained why he believes James stands above Jordan.<\/p>\n \u201cPeople threw the towel in on JR Smith. As talented as he was, people threw in the towel on him. It\u2019s not just JR, though. If you look at some of the guys he had to lead. JR had talent, no question, but people threw the towel in on him, though. When people throw the towel in on you in this league, it\u2019s over. People threw in the towel on JR, and Bron was like, \u201cNah, this man can shoot, and he can defend; I can do something with that,\u201d Green said.<\/p>\n The Warriors star then turned his focus to Matthew Dellavedova to emphasize LeBron\u2019s greatness.<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think MJ had many guys that went through that. (Matthew Dellavedova) stinks. He won two games in the NBA Finals with him. I got a lot of respect for Delly\u2026 Stinks! Completely stinks. To win with guys like that. MJ wasn\u2019t winning with Matthew Dellavedova,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n This isn\u2019t the first time Green has been vocal about his stance. Back in 2022, he openly ranked LeBron as the greatest player of all time<\/a> and placed Jordan second on his list of top five NBA players ever.<\/p>\n Fans React To Draymond Green\u2019s Bold LeBron James-Michael Jordan Take Green\u2019s comments quickly sparked an online frenzy, with fans firing off mixed reactions. Some questioned his logic, while others praised his loyalty.<\/p>\n \u201cMJ had Scottie and Pippen. LeBron has had Kyrie, K-Love, D-Wade, Bosh, AD, and many more players. Why do we always pretend like Bron had no help?\u201d one fan asked.<\/p>\n \u201ccalling LeBron the \ud83d\udc10 just makes draymond look better since they beat Bron multiple times,\u201d one fan joked.<\/p>\n \u201cAn unexpected bond, but I\u2019m here for it. Through all the hate y\u2019all throw at Draymond, every man needs a genuine ride or die like him,\u201d another fan commented.<\/p>\n \u2018 winning against bums tho. East was a cake walk,\u201d one comment read.<\/p>\n \u201cI hear draymond went to the dentist and they found lebron on his tonsils,\u201d another one joked.<\/p>\n \u201cBron also won less than Jordan with a lot of help,\u201d another comment read.<\/p>\n The debate over LeBron versus Jordan has raged for decades. Draymond Green\u2019s latest remarks show it doesn\u2019t look like it\u2019s slowing down anytime soon.<\/p>\n The post Draymond Green\u2019s Wild Reason For Picking LeBron James Over Michael Jordan As The GOAT Has The Internet In A Frenzy<\/a> originally published on Total Pro Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Michael Jordan, Draymond Green, and LeBron James (Photo by Imagn Images) The Golden State Warriors are coming off…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":146018,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[4,90521,983,355,15134,99,68904],"class_list":{"0":"post-146017","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nba","8":"tag-breaking-news","9":"tag-draymond-greens-wild-reason-for-picking-lebron-james-over-michael-jordan-as-the-goat-has-the-internet-in-a-frenzy","10":"tag-local-news","11":"tag-nba","12":"tag-newsbreak","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-total-pro-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146017","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=146017"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/146017\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/146018"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=146017"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=146017"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=146017"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Draymond Green (Image Credits: Imagn)<\/p>\n
