Stephen Curry’s leadership in question for Draymond Green’s actions

Draymond Green’s actions have been getting out of hand recently and it might be costing Stephen Curry his image in the community and front of the fans. Former NBA player and now analyst Jay Williams blamed Draymond Green for tarnishing the legacy of Stephen Curry. He claimed that the violent outburst of the Warriors forward is changing the perception of Steph’s leadership among the fans.

“I am getting texts from some people, some high-level people. These texts are reading, ‘Well, how about the leadership of Stephen Curry:’ That is where the conversations are going,” claimed Williams. The NBA analysts claimed that some high-profile people have been texting him asking about Curry’s leadership qualities amid Draymond’s outbursts.

Williams then added, “Draymond Green is diminishing the ultimate legacy of how the people look at the leadership of Stephen Curry. That is what happening right now.” He blamed Green for spoiling the legacy of Curry’s leadership that won the Warriors 4 rings.

Why did Steph Curry cry after Green’s ejection?

When Draymond Green got ejected early in the game against the Orlando Magic his team’s ace Stephen Curry was seen to be very frustrated. The baby-faced assassin was seen to be hiding his face inside his jersey and had teary eyes. It seemed like it was hard for him to carry on with Green’s antics in every other game, Steph addressed his feelings at that moment after the game in a post-game interview.

“We need him, he knows all that, we all know that. So whatever it takes to just keep him on the floor. He will be available, that is what gotta happen. Especially at this point of the year,” said Steph. He highlighted the big role of Draymond Green and reminded him that the whole team needs him. Later on in the post-game interview, Curry focused on building up synergy with the team and explaining how tough the current season has been for his team.
