Green doesn't see similarities with Barkley: I'm not the modern Barkley, I'm the modern-day Green
Green credits his mother, father and neighborhood for the bulk of his outspoken disposition. "It was inherited"
Warriors forward Draymond Green doesn’t see similarities with Charles Barkley, another master in the art of trash talking.
Per ESPN, When asked after practice Sunday if he's the modern-day Barkley, the Golden State Warriors' All-Star highly objected.
"Hell no," he responded promptly. "I'm the modern-day Draymond Green. F--- no."
He wasn't my role model. I grew up in Saginaw, Michigan. ... That's what you do, you talk, you talk junk during basketball. That's how I was raised. I was raised in a family like that, so I didn't need a Charles Barkley to influence me."
Green credits his mother, father and neighborhood for the bulk of his outspoken disposition. "It was inherited," he says. The only linkage with Barkley he acknowledged was on the basketball court. But that's the extent.
