Draymond Green Calls Out NBA for Trade Treatment of Andre Drummond

The Golden State Warriors recently played the Cleveland Cavaliers and beat them in a blowout. However, Draymond Green’s post-game comments on the NBA, the Cleveland Cavaliers, and their treatment of Andre Drummond is what made waves.

During a post-game interview, Green spoke on the treatment of Andre Drummond, who the Cavs sat while his trade situation plays out. Green said, “I would like to talk about something that's really bothering me, and it's the treatment of players in this league. To watch Andre Drummond, before the game, sit on the sidelines, then go to the back, and to come out in street clothes because a team is going to trade him, it's bulls**t.”

Green then used the treatment of James Harden during his trade from Houston to the Brooklyn Nets as an example. Green said, “Because when James Harden asked for a trade and essentially dogged it, no one's going to fight back that James was dogging it his last days in Houston, but he was castrated for wanting to go to a different team. Everybody destroyed that man. And yet a team can come out and say, 'Oh, we want to trade a guy,' and then that guy has to go sit, and if he doesn't stay professional, then he's a cancer. And he's not good in someone's locker room, and he's the issue." See video here
