Draymond Green On New-Look Warriors: 'A Lot More Teaching' During Training Camp 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Oct 5, 2019 4:29 pm

Draymond Green noted the lack of familiarity on the Golden State Warriors roster following practice on Friday.


"Just the lack of familiarity. You get used to a certain thing for so long, and then it's not that. The normal reads that you would make, just kind of second nature, you got to make sure they're there. It's just a lot more making sure everyone's on the same page, or getting there. Everybody's not on the same page, which is to be expected," said Green.


The Warriors lost Kevin Durant, Andre Iguodala, and Shaun Livingston this offseason.


Klay Thompson will be out until at least the All-Star break.


Green added that the new signings have a high basketball IQ.


"A lot more teaching. For us guys who have been here for a while, it's a little difficult some of these practices ... You can teach some things about basketball, but you can't really teach IQ. You can teach people what to do -- however, this seems to be a pretty smart team. There's not really any idiots. Some teams you've got some idiots. It's not really any idiots [here], so that's good. Everybody seems to be able to think a little bit, so that's great."

Feels like a shot at former Warrior Nick Young.

Mmmh...

No, we didn't.

But in behalf of fairness I must admit some pics of my tits may have accidentally arrived into some ladies' TimeLine.

Did a guy on your team not carry a controlled substance through an Airport concealed in a liquid container that would 100% be required to be searched.. Sorry no dumb dumbs therefore can't have happened..

I'm not a native speaker so I'm very curious about your evaluation of American English here:

Green says "not really any", but doesn't that actually mean "not many but unfortunately some are there"? I'm very serious about that question, thanks in advance.
