Draymond Green just dropped a bomb, explaining exactly what he thinks his role would be if LeBron James actually joined the Golden State Warriors. Speaking on Monday’s “The Draymond Green Show” podcast, Green doubled down on a Threads post where he flat out said the Warriors would run their offense through James if the NBA’s all-time leading scorer came to the Bay Area. His vision? He’d become “PJ Tucker. Greatest corner 3pt shooter ever.” Yeah, you heard that right.
Draymond’s Corner Office Vision and Tucker’s Respect
Green wasn’t playing around when he made that PJ Tucker comparison, and he sure wasn’t gonna let anyone disrespect Tucker’s name. He fired back on his podcast, “Number one, the people that start coming out of the woodworks like, ‘PJ Tucker, great three-pointer shooter?’ You better go check PJ Tucker’s scoring… won’t be tolerating any PJ Tucker corner three-pointer shooting disrespect here.” He sees a future where he and Stephen Curry are on the court with James, and if those two legends are running the pick-and-roll, Green knows he’s gotta find his spot to be valuable. For him, that means planting himself “in the corner” and knocking down shots. It’s a calculated move for sure, especially after Green attempted a career-high 4.6 three-pointers per game last season, hitting them at 32.6 percent over 68 games.
Adam Silver’s “Crazy” Comments Just Might Be Slowing Bron Down
Whether this dream lineup actually happens is a whole other story, and Draymond thinks NBA Commissioner Adam Silver might have just made things even crazier. Green thinks Silver’s recent comments about waiting for James to sign a new contract before finalizing the 2026-27 schedule could actually delay LeBron’s decision. James himself called Silver’s remarks “crazy” last week. Green isn’t holding back, saying, “Adam saying that is not going to speed up LeBron’s decision at all. If I know LeBron well, if anything, it might slow his decision down a little more because that’s just how Bron is.” Both Green and Curry have already been pitching James, who ESPN’s Shams Charania reports is looking at the Warriors, Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat, Philadelphia 76ers, and Minnesota Timberwolves. It’s a waiting game, and Draymond just threw a wrench into the timeline.
