Thread on one of the most underrated sneaky very very good season.
Draymond Green 2016
Draymond Green 2016
As most of you guys know the Warriors won 73 games and infamously blew a 3-1 lead in the NBA finals.
They were led by Steph who had one of the greatest if not the greatest offensive season ever, but one player who goes under the radar was Draymonds impressive season

Lets start with some simple basic stats.

On top of all this, he also shot a career best 38% from 3, and a career best 48% from the field.

Heres some of his advanced numbers
19.3 PER
59% TS
6.0 OWS
5.1 DWS
11.1 WS
2.6 OBPM
2.9 DBPM
5.5 BPM
5.3 VORP
this is my favorite advanced stat because it measures impact in ways some stats can't always do.

Draymond that full season had the 2nd highest all time

People who know me, know that I think that advanced stats are not the end all so lets use some eye test.
He ran the Warriors offense that season, him and steph would share duties, but draymond at times was the lead playmaker. He was a elite defender who could also guard 1-5.
He ran the Warriors offense that season, him and steph would share duties, but draymond at times was the lead playmaker. He was a elite defender who could also guard 1-5.
He was also incredibly smart as there were multiple times where in the middle of a play, he would notice what opposing offenses would be doing and he would break that up. Him being able to guard the 5 spot, unlocked the "death lineup" which no team had a answer for.
He had a lot of dumb mistakes where he would kick people in the balls, and that led to him getting suspended, which can easily be argued cost the warriors the title, which again shows how valuable he was to the team.
All in all this was one of the most underrated seasons ever.
Casuals who hate on draymond AND his value to the Warriors clearly did not watch him and box score watch. His value is one that can not be calculated in basic stats. and advanced stats back up his play on the court.

people who think Draymond is bad clearly only look at points scored.
