Ive heard a great deal of what everyone has said.
Draymond Green on ‘The Draymond Green Show’The Volume
And normally I would say, F you.’
Green said today toward the beginning of a 50-minute episode of his podcast,The Draymond Green Show.
But this time I decided to listen, said Green.
And what he heard, he said, was an opportunity for growth.
I failed miserably, Green said.
He likened his Ill show you mentality to that of a 15-year-old.
Ive realized that the responsibility is much greater.
The responsibility thats been placed on me…Ive handled it miserably.
Green spoke of a visit from his coach Steve Kerr after the suspension.
Green said was listened to all the chatter of he needs help, and felt defiant.
What I realized is: Youre heading back down the same path.
That decision, he said, was to be a champion of change.
That means accepting that theres a place for growth.
That means accepting that you f***ed up and youre wrong.
Green will likely return over the weekend when the Warriors are on the road in Chicago and Milwaukee.
Greens suspension without pay cost him $1.84 million.
