Draymond Green has been waiting years to settle this argument on his own terms.The Warriors forward used his podcast “The Draymond Green Show” to redraft the loaded 2012 NBA Draft class — and rather than simply ranking players by name recognition, Green laid out the criteria first.
“On my redraft, I’m redrafting off body of work,” Green said. “That’s individual accolades, that’s team accolades, and the whole thing mixed together.”
By that standard, Green kept the top two spots unchanged from the actual draft. Anthony Davis stayed at No. 1 overall, with Green pointing to his inclusion on the NBA 75th Anniversary Team, a championship and nine All-Star selections. Damian Lillard held at No. 2 overall behind nine All-Star nods and seven All-NBA selections of his own. Draymond re-drafts the 2012 NBA Draft (shoutout @BillSimmons)
