Draymond Green’s Attempt to Defend Warriors’ Glory Triggers Rasheed Wallace’s Honest Admission

Rasheed Wallace wasn’t going to let the weekend go peacefully. First, the Detroit legend fired some shots at the Dubs, then Draymond Green clapped back, and now it’s Sheed’s turn again. After Dray threatened to ‘smack’ Wallace and the ’04 Pistons, Wallace made one thing very clear. This is no raging battle of words. It is, at most, a little sibling rivalry-grade banter. That was the prelude to a threat of teaching his ‘little brother’ a lesson.

After Green’s smack-talk, Wallace was quick to jump on X and address the others looking in on this argument from the outside. “First and foremost this isn’t a beef, Draymond is my lil bro who I am proud of so no matter what we say it will never be personal so don’t try to blow this up cause we both know how cats do!!!”

That being said, he addressed the same lil bro to resume the trash talk. “Dray you already know how we got down on that squad!! Don’t matter the rules yours or ours …. y’all as a team were too fuckin little… you can ask more than half ya teammates (who we played against) on that roster… and we can keep it with that year b/c no way yall could fuck with any of us in our prime… at any point I can come on ya show or you can come visit mines and we can go thru the roster man for man coach for coach.”

This was in direct response to Green’s writing, “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!” Wallace even quoted the tweet, which he provoked with brow-raising statements.

Like Draymond Green triggering old fans claiming his Warriors could take on prime Shaq-led Lakers, Rasheed Wallace did something similar. And he very intentionally kicked off a non-feud.

Rasheed Wallace came out to play

Channeling the vibe of the 1979 cult classic, The Warriors, Rasheed Wallace, sat in front of a mic of the Sheed and Tyler podcast with a purpose – trigger the most seasoned Warrior. He stirred the debaters in the NBA community with a spicy claim that his 2004 Pistons squad would beat the 2017 NBA champions, the Golden State Warriors.

“We were defense. We hang our hat on defense. We would’ve beat the s**t out of them. … Because for the simple fact that they couldn’t match up with us at any position. Steph’s not a defender. He would’ve had to guard Rip (Hamilton). … They’re not used to the physicality. Draymond’s too little,” was Wallace’s opinion. Green responded with a counterclaim and Wallace’s reply is the latest in this banter.

While yes, the ’04 Pistons were impressive with Wallace, the 2017 Dubs had prime Steph Curry, Kevin Durant, and Draymond Green. So forgive us for taking Green’s side on this.
