Draymond Greene wasn’t happy with the way the Cleveland Cavaliers star was acting.
Draymond Green has a history dating back ten years to the Cleveland Cavaliers. He and the Warriors won the dynasty’s first championship with the Cavaliers in 2015.
Since then, he has faced the Cavaliers three more times in the NBA Finals. However, after LeBron James’ departure, the interaction on both sides was significantly reduced.
That is, until recently, Cavaliers’ Draymond and Evan Mobley competed for the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award.
Mobley won the award, and Greene recently spoke positively about him. However, he didn’t have the same energy as one of Mobley’s teammates.

Draymond Green spoke on his podcast about losing the Defensive Player of the Year award to Evan Mobley. He pointed out that he was running like Dyson Daniels.
However, Greene wasn’t grateful that Darius Garland was digging into him a bit, especially while fighting Mobley’s horns.
“Darius Garland was throwing the shade. Don’t be a clown. We were running. That’s what it is.
“The number one seed with the second best record in the NBA.
“When Darius Garland joined the podcast, I was surprised when Darius Garland threw the shade and assured him he would become an All-Star. He obviously wanted to win.
Garland’s comments were not too bad. It simply implies that the Warriors star had an advantage in the DPOY race.
He said he did it. “Draymond really has a cheat code on his podcast.
“So he can really go there and talk every day. It’s so cool and it’s really working.”

Darius Garland is growing confidently. Garland recently chuckled at Tyler Hero in the aftermath of a playoff game.
So far, the Cavaliers have benefited from Garland’s confidence, and they’ve been working very well against the Miami Heat in their first round playoff series.
So far, he has averaged 24.0 points, 7.0 assists and 2.5 rebounds in two games. The Cavaliers know he has to play at a high level to run in the postseason.
Donovan Mitchell is the number one option, but Garland is the second best player that must be a star-level player.
