Draymond Green: 'I think I'll be in the Hall of Fame'
If you get in the Hall of Fame, and you probably will, it will be for something completely different than scoring, anyway. Draymond Green: And that’s what I’ve always said. I think I’ll — and I hope I’ll — be in the Hall of Fame. But my route won’t be the typical route. You won’t go and look at my stats and say, “This guy’s a surefire Hall of Famer.” But if you know the game of basketball, and you look at the game of basketball, then I think I have a case. That’s kind of how I look at it. No, my path to the Hall of Fame won’t be the typical path guys take to the Hall of Fame. And I still have work to do and continue to build, but I think I can make a solid case.

The Warriors came to D.C. for 48 hours, playing the Wizards on Monday & visiting the White House Tuesday. Draymond Green was in the middle of everything as always. Heckling fans inspired him Monday, but what does the future hold for him? In @TheAthletic: bit.ly/3ISwtp7 – 10:00 AM

Draymond Green was lethargic early against the Wizards: “I had nothing going. I couldn’t find it. Wasn’t about to find it.”
Then a fan questioned his HOF candidacy: ” Sometimes you gotta let a sleeping dog lie.”

Draymond Green went at it with a fan behind the scorer’s table much of the night. Seemed to fire Green up. He had a monster second half, chirping at the fan after every big play. Bob Myers, Mike Dunleavy and Joe Lacob went up to the guy on their way out. Might’ve thanked him. – 5:28 PM

More on this storyline
“If someone brings that up, I’m more worried about Jordan than myself,” Green told ESPN. “I’m always hyper-alert because I want to see how that’s compounding in Jordan’s head. What actions do I need to take in that moment to make sure it doesn’t mentally affect him.” Green expects to hear about it in Boston. To him, there is no topic Celtics fans consider off-limits. But this time, he’s ready for it. And dare he say, a bit excited. “I’ll greet them with a nice smile,” Green told ESPN. “Just as I did after we won the championship.” -via ESPN / January 18, 2023
Now, seven months later, the Warriors are one day away from returning to Boston since that day. “It was such a beautiful thing,” Draymond Green told ESPN. “It’s not something they hadn’t experienced before. So I think it’s great that they experienced it from us. With Steph Curry doing what Steph Curry does and the guy they chose to call the N-word. It was beautiful.” -via ESPN / January 18, 2023
In June, the Golden State Warriors became just the second team in NBA history to clinch a title on the parquet floor of the TD Garden. Now, seven months later, the Warriors are one day away from returning to Boston since that day. “It was such a beautiful thing,” Draymond Green told ESPN. “It’s not something they hadn’t experienced before. So I think it’s great that they experienced it from us. With Steph Curry doing what Steph Curry does and the guy they chose to call the N-word. It was beautiful.” -via ESPN / January 18, 2023
