Draymond Green Trending Following His Comment He’s the Best Defender in NBA History

Golden State Warriors role player Draymond Green is a very good defensive player. But is he really the best of all time? Probably not, and no one has ever even made the argument for him being the best defender of all time. Following his comments, he’s the GOAT of defense, Twitter weighed in.

Let’s just say no one is buying what Dray is selling.

Ben Wallace & Dennis Rodman might have something to say about that….Draymond who is a Michigan native & grew up idolizing the Pistons should know better https://t.co/bltb1dmnTs

Siakam cooked Draymond in Game 1…

Siakam dropped an all-time great NBA finals debut game.

Siakam in title clinching game dropped 26-10-3 on 59% from FG.

Siakam hit the clutch floater on Draymond, the last made basket of that finals.

The greatest defender ever doesn't let a player as inexperienced do that.pic.twitter.com/Cm4M7gMbo5

The best defender I’ve seen in my lifetime is Ben Wallace and Prime D12

So…I don’t know how Draymond magically lept them before we even do the whole list thing…

He’s nothing close to the greatest defender ever

Draymond Green isn’t even the greatest defender to ever play for the Warriors, let alone in the history of the NBA. https://t.co/4GtaG1lT0c

Draymond is a solid team defender, but him calling himself the GOAT just shows you how out of touch with reality he is.

Draymond needs to check himself.
