Over the weekend, Draymond Green was asked on Threads about whether he or LeBron James would run the offense if James went to the Warriors. Green responded as one would expect: “Bron. I’d become PJ Tucker. Greatest corner 3pt shooter ever.”
Seems pretty self-explanatory and reasonable. But because Green has his own podcast, he felt the need to expand on the point.
“Number one, the people that start coming out of the woodworks like, ‘PJ Tucker, great three-point shooter?’ You better go check PJ Tucker’s corner 3-point shooting. PJ Tucker probably led the NBA in 3-point shooting percentage for maybe six years in a row. … Won’t be tolerating any PJ Tucker corner three-point shooting disrespect here.”
“But no, what I was getting at with that was like … yeah, I’ll always have that ability to go in the pick-and-roll and make some plays, but if you got LeBron James and Steph Curry in a pick and roll, you better go find a role. You better go find a spot so you can be valuable.”
Green, for the record, shot 39 percent on corner 3s last year and is a 35.5 percent career corner 3-point shooter.
