Draymond Green has spent his summer spewing hot takes now that he’s a member of “the new media.”

On Sunday night, Green randomly tweeted that the 2017 Warriors team would have easily beaten Michael Jordan’s 98 Bulls team which many consider one of the greatest basketball teams of all-time.

I’m watching the 98 Bulls vs Utah in the Finals… I can’t help but notice our 2017 team would’ve beaten these Bulls by a dub and these Jazz by 40 if they’re going to play these brands of basketball. And that’s why it’s dumb to compare Era’s

Learn to appreciate things for what they are. Analyze the game. And stop the unnecessary debating.

Yours Truly,
The New Media

Of course, NBA fans began debating Draymond’s controversial comments.

Thank goodness we now have #TheNewMedia to give us groundbreaking, unique takes like, "The era I played in is the best and guys in other eras wouldn't have been able to compete!" https://t.co/Yq1QUSW9C8

Draymond… don't do this.

Pippen locks up Durant. MJ locks up Steph. Ron Harper locks up Klay.

Dennis Rodman gets you kicked out of 2 games minimum. https://t.co/XsHp7ChyCd
