Golden State Warriors ahead Draymond Green defended his group in opposition to one other former NBA participant’s ludicrous declare.
The 34-year-old took to social media to answer former Detroit Pistons large man Rasheed Wallace’s assertion that their 2003-04 Pistons group, which received the NBA title that 12 months, would beat the 2016-17 Warriors, a group regarded by some as the best in historical past.
“Sheed we would’ve smacked yall. Yall was scoring 72 points per game. That’s not winning a half. And we putting you and them big ass forces in every pick and roll. Let’s see you move them feet. That one ring was great though big bro. We all appreciated it!,” the four-time NBA champion posted on social media platform X, previously Twitter.

The 2016-17 Warriors are thought of the height of their dynasty. This was the primary season of Kevin Durant, who joined the group in the course of the summer time of 2016. This was a group already coming off a 73-9 season.
Rasheed Wallace’s prior feedback on the Warriors
Wallace claimed that their 2004 Pistons group, which defeated the Shaq and Kobe-led Los Angeles Lakers within the finals, would decimate the Warriors.
The 39-year-old cited their physicality, protection, and favorable matchups as causes they might win.
“We would have beat the s**t out of them because of the simple fact that they couldn’t match up with us at any position. Steph is not a defender… They’re not used to the physicality. Draymond is too little… We have more guys with a greater skillset,” the four-time NBA All-Star acknowledged.
