NBA Commissioner Adam Silver

Is there a more polarizing player in the NBA than Draymond Green ? none come to mind. TD Garden trolled him and Adam Silver was all for it, as Draymond was booed in Boston during Game 3. It all started as soon as he set a foot on the court as the Celtics fans not even wasting a second straight away started by booing him and made it very clear that they are back with the playoff energy they are known for. Draymond Green also unintentionally got the crowd right as he was neither good on the defensive end nor on the offensive one.

“I love the energy” – Adam Silver reveals true feelings about Draymond getting booed

In these NBA Finals, we have seen that happen first-hand with Draymond Green, who got blasted by the Boston crowd in Game 3. . Draymond Green struggled, scoring just two points and adding three assists before fouling out in the fourth quarter Instead of scolding the fans for their behavior, NBA commissioner Adam Silver defended them and noted how much he loves the energy they bring to the game. For now, Golden State is not getting a lot of sympathy from the league’s commissioner. Silver spoke with WCVB’s Peter Eliopoulos for an interview on Thursday. The NBA commissioner was asked for his response to the controversy over Boston’s obscene comments –

“I want fans to enjoy themselves. Of course, as the league office, you want to see it done with respect for all the participants. But I get it. I love the energy that Boston fans bring to the game,” Silver said.

The Celtics fans were not that great at welcoming the Golden State Warriors players when they were getting introduced before the game started. They booed every player as soon as the announcement was made. But the loudest ones were for Draymond Green and that probably got stuck in his mind.

The intensity of Draymond Green, unsettled the Boston Celtics players in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. The former Defensive Player of the Year’s physicality set the tone for the Warriors’ defense, as only 3 Celtics’ players got into double figures. Green’s impact on that win was not both physically and mentally. He got into scuffles with Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Grant Williams over the course of 48 minutes. However, after the loss, Al Horford did not want to credit him for getting in the Celtics’ heads as the visitors fell apart in the second half.

“My baby girl, she probably can’t make out what they’re saying, and then for DJ, who can… This is what it is. This is what you got. Like I said before, he said he was going to be a coach, maybe that’s you one day that they’re yelling at like that. But you see your dad go through it, and we’re ok”

“Yes my family is livid, and trust me I get it. But for me, who’s raising a young black man in America, for him to understand how America works, as opposed to how they say America works, that was just another example of it. ‘F**K DRAYMOND! F**K DRAYMOND’. F**k you too.” This was Draymond’s response to the hostile Boston crowd, which will host Game 4 of the Finals soon.

Draymond Green is not one to whisper praise or hatred, as he lauded the NBA commissioner, a couple of days ago. However, his answers would have somewhat hurt Draymond’s feelings, as he might have expected some backing from the NBA front office. “The crowd was not a factor. We played in front of rude people before, dropping F-bombs with children in the crowd. Real classy. Good job, Boston,” said Thompson. The NBA Finals probably isn’t the greatest place to bring your three-year-old, especially with games starting so late, as for Adam Silver , he loves the vibe !
