I love the commentary, but it seems like it would be a lot. You play a game, then you post up and you’re doing the pod … Draymond Green: It’s all business, you know? The way I view my podcast is that I’m operating a business. Like, you can’t get tired of operating your own business, or it fails. So, it’s something that I take as serious as I do basketball. And so, if I’m going to show up for the game, I show up for (the podcast), or it doesn’t work.

How would Barkley deal with Draymond?
“You just got to clock him one good time with a cheap shot. Draymond reminds me a lot of Rodman. Every time I played against Rodman I would just knock the hell out of him early and he would stop all those antics.”

it’s just an optics thing with Draymond. what players do with their time after the game ends is their own business. but since this is the Finals, they’re losing, and he’s playing poorly…his podcast is under the microscope. that’s what he wants, just not sure who or how it helps. – 1:49 PM

More on this storyline
According to Warriors forward Draymond Green, who employs the very same flex and is known for his physicality, looks are deceiving when it comes to his longtime teammate. “He is strong. And when I say strong, I mean strong,” Green told ESPN. “Like, if you go in our weight room, and we’re doing dumbbell bench press, Steph is in the hundred [pound] club. Not many people get to the hundred club. His legs [are] super strong. That change happened last year.” -via ESPN / June 10, 2022
“It’s incredible just how much he’s changed just in the seven years that I’ve been here,” says Warriors coach Steve Kerr. “I would say over the last three years, it’s been really apparent just how much his body has changed.” Added Warriors assistant coach Bruce Fraser: “He’s been lifting more than he’s ever.” -via ESPN / June 10, 2022
Yet multiple NBA athletic training sources say that Curry, the game’s most prolific 3-point marksman, is the best example yet to show how strength training not only doesn’t hinder the most valuable skill in the game, it amplifies it. “I never gave that any credence because there is a plan for how you can balance both,” Curry told ESPN. “You’ve got to maintain your flexibility and all that type of stuff while you get stronger. That’s something I guess I figured out.” -via ESPN / June 10, 2022
