Draymond Green Says Knicks “Aren’t Contenders” And Lack Championship DNA

Draymond Green：尼克隊「非爭冠球隊」且缺乏冠軍DNA


Draymond Green isn’t buying the New York Knicks as legitimate title
contenders. Speaking on his podcast, the Warriors forward shared his thoughts
on their ceiling this season and explained why he doesn’t believe the Knicks
have what it takes to win on the biggest stage.

“The Knicks, I just don’t believe that they’re contenders,” said Green on
his podcast. “I don’t think they have what it takes to win at the highest
level. I think you can stifle their offense and make it hard on them.
Ultimately, guys that don’t really want to defend, make it tough to win at
the highest level.”
Defense wins championships in the NBA, and the Knicks currently rank 10th in
that category. While that’s higher than the Warriors at 12th, they do not
have a superstar like Stephen Curry to compensate for defensive breakdowns.
Instead, the Knicks depend heavily on Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns,
who combined for 44 points in their loss to the Bucks on Tuesday. While both
are elite scorers, they are also inconsistent defenders, and their key roles
have contributed to the team’s struggles on that end of the court.
In his opinion, only five teams currently fit that description, and none are
in the East (Warriors, Lakers, Clippers, Thunder, and Nuggets).
For the Knicks, the challenge now is proving critics like Draymond Green
wrong. They have the talent to compete with any team in the league, but
turning potential into results will take focus, chemistry, and a willingness
to defend every single night. If they can find that extra gear on both ends
of the court, they might finally silence the doubters and establish
themselves as a real threat in the East. Until then, talk of contention will
remain as nothing more than pure ambition





Green表示：「我就是不認為尼克是爭冠球隊。我覺得他們沒有在最高水準賽事中取勝的

能力。你完全可以限制他們的進攻讓他們陷入困境。歸根究柢，一群並不真正願意專注

防守的球員，很難在最高水準的比賽中贏球。」





在他看來，目前聯盟中僅有5支球隊符合「爭冠球隊」的定位，且全部來自西區（分別

是勇士隊、湖人隊、快艇隊、雷霆隊和金塊隊）。


對於尼克隊來說，現在的挑戰是證明像Draymond Green這樣的批評者是錯誤的。他們擁
