The butthurt in you runs deep. Draymond is GREAT, but he's not an elite 4. He couldn't carry a team offensively or defensively the way other PF's do. For that reason, he is not in the conversation for best. You'll have to explain why that is so hard for you to understand, because I really don't get it.

Hes literally doing both right now i dont know what you're talking about

Did I miss the memo on Steph Curry's passing? I get the sense that arguing with you won't make any difference because you're just making up stuff to fit your argument, but for the sense of debate. Like I already said, Steph Curry is carrying that team. No if, ands, or buts about it. If Draymond was, even slightly, the Warriors wouldn't be so bad when Steph goes to the bench (something that has been the same for quite a while).

To go even further, if the guy is in consideration for best PF in the league (in your opinion) why is he significantly worse when Steph goes off the court? His efficiency goes from being really good (well above average) to below average and his points per shot plummets. The actual team? When Curry is off the court and Draymond is on, they are 5.3 points per 100 possessions worse compared to when Curry is on the court and Draymond is off. The real kicker? The team actually sees a bigger loss defensively when Curry is on the bench than when Draymond is. Curry carries that team, to say otherwise is absolutely ludicrous.

its all true

His last few games without curry have been huge. No ifs ands or buts
Only great players have these kind of games consistently

Hes a top pf
Im not trying to slight anyone. Ad, blake, etc

Im more talking about his leap

 

[CameronCrazy06]

It's easy for somebody like Mexi who knows nothing about basketball to look at raw box scores and make assumptions

 

[Mexi]

All i know is hes gonna continue averaging a near triple double, gonna be an all star, win dpoy, his second straight title and a gold medal

Pretty solid work

 

[CameronCrazy06]

He's a lock to get voted in as a starter too right

 

[Mexi]

For me its hard to actually rank draymond

Hes 3rd at best
But would i put him over millsap, favors, lamarcus, love
Idk. The right answer is no, but i want to. Ill say that

Im just impressed with him thats all. His rookie year i was a fan of his hustle, never thought hed succeed this much
Then they start him over lee and it just stuck. A rags to riches story. I like guys like that

 

[Mexi]

He's a lock to get voted in as a starter too right

i jumped the gun
Didnt think kawhi would be that popular
Forgot kobe was a forward

But hes still got more votes than ANTHONY DAVIS which proves the point i was trying to make about his popularity and the warriors fans

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Also not sure he's a lock for team USA.

 

[elcheato]

Making team USA doesn't exactly prove anything anyway

Julius Randle is averaging a double double
Pretty good for a rookie(14 minutes from being a rookie anyways)

Only happened 3 times since 2000
Meka, dwight and blake
