The first three championships the Warriors and Green won were against LeBron James and his Cleveland Cavaliers. They almost won a fourth against the Cavaliers, but James rallied his troops from a 3-1 deficit to complete a monumental upset in the 2016 Finals.

In his latest podcast, Draymond Green defended LeBron James against constant media attacks. The Warriors forward accused the media of trying to "tear down" one of the greatest athletes of all time.

"You've attached your name to a black man for all of these years and that black man is none other than King James, LeBron James himself. And you tried to tear him down as much as you can all these years."

Green also criticized the media for using James' name to cause drama and spread rumors, most of which have nothing to do with basketball.

"Stop attaching your name to LeBron James. Stop. Because you know LeBron James and his incredible life that he's lived and continues to live, that there will always be something for you to talk about, if I just attach my name to LeBron James."

During his latest podcast, Draymond Green also brought up JJ Redick, Patrick Beverley, and C.J. McCollum, all of whom have provided NBA fans with amazing content and incredible analysis of the game.

Unlike many other media personalities, Redick, Green, McCollum, and other NBA players are not focused on hot takes and provide insights into the game.

Green recently made headlines when he criticized Kendrick Perkins, another former NBA player, for some of his comments. Since his retirement from basketball, Perkins has become an analyst, but he too garners attention for his outlandish comments and opinions.
