With the current NBA stars weekends, conversations on the product on the league field are again at the forefront. Although the interest and income of the NBA increases, the discussions on the question of whether the NBA games stagnated on the League even if Try to evolve its All-Star format.
On Saturday, the striker of the Golden State Warriors Draymond Green was frank on the state of the match. Green should participate in the skills challenge on Saturday evening, twinned with his teammate of Warriors Moses Moody.
When he was asked if he thought the NBA match was boring, Green was frank. “Absolutely,” he said, via The Associated Press.
The quadruple NBA champion referred to an interview where the late Kobe Bryant said that the match had become “accidental basketball”.
“He could not have been more right,” said Green about Bryant’s comments.
Green spoke of a recent Warriors match against the Los Angeles Lakers, saying that it was “refreshing” to face a strategic player like LeBron James. Golden State played the Lakers twice in the last month, losing the two games.
“Each possession is a type of failure,” said Green on Saturday by playing against James. “You do not understand this today in the NBA, often. … You are not satisfied regularly. It’s just that can run faster, which can strike more than three, it is not a substance. I think it’s very boring. “
Most criticism of the league on the field indicate the high score matches and the excess of three points. An appropriate example is a recent game in December, where the Phoenix Suns and Utah Jazz combined for 44 three points, linking a record Located in a double match in overtime in 2023. The Suns won the 134-126 match.
Ironically, we could assert that Green’s teammate Stephen Curry played a hand in the growing popularity of the three points in the NBA. But Green says he wants to see more of the kind of creativity than James brings to the game.
“You want to be one of the teams that don’t play an accidental game,” said Green. “It’s the challenge.”
