What did Draymond Green's recruiting pitch to LeBron on their golf trip say?

Iso Joe Johnson 0:00
Draymond Green spoke about recruiting pitch for LeBron James on their golfing trip. Let's take a listen to what Dray and his recruiting pitch was. And us being brothers, I'd be remiss if I don't take the opportunity to throw my pitch in there. You know, I'd be crazy if we're together for X amount of days and at no point am I like y'all. We need to chop it up. Like, what the hell is going on? What are we doing? And so there's that. Of course I did that. And of course, the pitch was crazy. I think I'm pretty decent at it. Does it change anything? Does it make anything happen? I don't know. I hope so. With the things that I shared in it, I believe it definitely is going to make the brain work a little bit, you know.

I don't think there's a decision that's been made, but say if there was, it'll make you think twice about it, you know. And so that's that. And today, according to Front Office Sports, multiple Western Conference executives expect LeBron James will sign with the Warriors over the Cavaliers. Wow. Joe, who been saying that, Joe? Hey, yeah, I think I heard you utter that or something. You may have said something like that. All things being equal, Joe, all things being equal, the Warriors make more sense than anybody. Because when LeBron James won championships, what was he surrounded by? Shooters. Yeah. Battier, Rio. Mike Miller. Kyle Korver. J.R. Smith. Danny Green. Caldwell Pope. Guys that can knock down open shots.
Iso Joe Johnson 2:05
Who can knock down better open shots than one Stephen Wardell, excuse me, Wardell Stephen Curry. That gets one person. But let me tell you something about the Heat. Here he go. Got Wiggins, right? Yeah. You know he's 40% from three, huh? Yeah. Yeah. Would you rather take, I tell you what, Ocho, would you rather take Wiggins 40% from three? Let me finish. Okay. We got Tim Hardaway Jr. Yeah. Another shooter. Yeah. And we got Young Bull. We got Young Bull. Davion Mitchell? Huh? Davion Mitchell? Well, no, he the point, ain't he? Yeah, he can shoot, though.
Unknown 2:44
I mean, he okay.
Iso Joe Johnson 2:45
He ain't great. We got somebody else coming, though. Oh, you got Klay Thompson coming, huh? Yeah. Joe, y'all listen to me not when I'm talking, man. You know, people be hee-hee and ha-ha and thinking I'm lying. And I've been right all year long. What you got about Ray Allen, Ocho? I mean, Joe and Ocho. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, in Miami.
Unknown 3:04
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Why do executives think LeBron might choose the Warriors over the Cavaliers?

Iso Joe Johnson 3:04
Yes. Shooters. That's when he thrives at his best. He wants shooters around him because he knows the double team is going to come. And guess what? The double team doesn't come because they're attached to those shooters. Now he can get downhill more freely. Kevin Love revamped his game to become what? A shooter. People don't realize Kevin Love was 24 and 12. Every night. I don't think people realize just how great Kevin Love was. He was on a Hall of Fame trajectory with no championships in Minnesota, but he was 24-12. Every night. Every night. Kevin Love was getting 30 points and 20 rebounds. Every night.
Ken the Nerd Neck Zabera 3:43
Every night.
Iso Joe Johnson 3:44
Kevin Love was him. He revamped this game because he realized that was what's best for the team. Very, very, very unselfish. Yeah. Hey, you got a great point. When he's surrounded by those shooters, it makes everybody stay home. Yeah. And it opens up the floor for him to be able to operate, navigate, and score, make plays, post up. And that's how you control a game, especially in the postseason when the game starts to slow down a little bit, Uncle Ocho. And you're like, look, boom, we got to get something good.

How would LeBron fit alongside Warriors shooters and role players?

Iso Joe Johnson 4:17
We had two, three possessions, dead possessions, to where we hadn't got anything yet. Shit. Chad, you mean tell me, boy, you put him and that boy Wardell on the same team, huh? Huh? Y'all saw it. You saw it at the Olympics. Y'all saw it. You see it. That's my word for it. Tony Baker used to say, you see it. Okay. Hey, Ojo, I ain't gonna leave y'all out because there's still a few teams I like, scenarios I've been hearing. Him obviously going to Miami, I just think it's kind of plug and play. He'll look good, South Beach, great weather year round. I mean, damn, you can't beat that for real, for real.
