Recently, the NBA's 75th anniversary selection of the top 75 superstars has caused controversy. According to USA Today, Pierce recently made a guest appearance on a show, and when asked whether it was regrettable that Dream Green lost the 75 superstars, Pierce said that the combination of Green and Yao Mai, as well as Carter, Howard, etc. are not a grade.
On the show, Pierce said green wasn't qualified to be named one of the 75 superstars. He pulled his finger to count the players who were not selected, mentioned the likes of Carter, Maddy, Yao Ming and Howard, and said that Green was not in the same class as them, although Green was now a 3-time championship in hand and had also been voted the best defensive player, although he was not targeting Green.
In addition, Pierce said he was surprised that no one mentioned Yao Ming's failure, and he thought that Yao Ming should have been selected as one of the 75 superstars.
Green's offensive stats are not good. Prior to this season, Green had averaged less than 10 points per game for three consecutive seasons, and three-point shooting was getting less and less inaccurate. But in the heyday of the Warriors, Green's contribution to the Warriors is still indisputable. Kerr has also said that Green is the most important player for the Warriors.
In the 2021-22 season, Curry is still strong, and Klay Thompson is expected to return. Only with the healthy Splash Brothers can Green play his full role. In the first two games of the season, Green averaged 8 points, 7 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game, shooting 60% from the field. Today the Warriors won 119-107 against the Kings, with Green shooting 6-of-12 from the field, including 1 of 2 from three-point range and 1 of 2 from the free throw line, with 14 points, six rebounds and six assists.
The Splash Brothers and Green are the base set for the 5-year, 3-crown Warriors. But in the end, only one of the three of them, Curry, was selected as one of the 75 superstars. (Supine Braces/Hairy)
