‘Has He Ever Watched Steph Play?’ Draymond Green Calls Out JJ Redick’s LeBron Defense

The coach stressed that “the smaller guys, because they can be theatric, they typically draw more fouls.” But for a 6’9 Forward like Bron, who mainly absorbs the blows, contacts aren’t visible to draw a whistle.

Now, it could’ve been a Curry vs Bron comparison, unless it wasn’t. As the 6’2 Guard, Curry fits Redick’s “theatric” descriptions perfectly. And if even he’s not getting the whistles, then it just reveals a bigger problem.

But whether Green accidentally agreed with Redick or not, the Warriors’ star had borne the same sentiment about Curry for quite a long time now. And he had a solid justification, too.

Draymond Green Revealed Why Stephen Curry Doesn’t Get Whistles

On numerous occasions, calling out the refs has been a usual pastime. However, it seemed like the 4x Champion had been pretty serious about it, as he would go on to reason out why Curry gets this uneven treatment.

“Does his lack of saying things to the referee affect the whistle that he doesn’t get? I think so,” he said on his podcast in early January. “Not that Steph isn’t someone who’s going to stand up for himself. He just doesn’t on the court from a referee perspective.”

“But I do think it ultimately affects him,” he added. “I think I get a better whistle than Steph. A much better whistle than Steph, in my opinion. If something is wrong, it’s wrong.”
