"Dennis Rodman vs Draymond Green would have 9 pts, 40000 rebounds, 400,000 techs": Kevin Durant and fans mock BR's hypothetical 1v1 between the two most impactful players of all time

Dennis Rodman and Draymond Green are two of the greatest defenders of all time that have impacted the game of basketball like only a few could

Dennis Rodman is arguably the most impactful in the game of basketball while scoring well under 8 points per game in his 14-year-long NBA career. There’s somebody who’s close to the 5x NBA champ in impacting a game, and he goes by the name Draymond Green.

A 3x NBA champ, Green is a double-double machine, generally with assists and rebounds who much like Dennis impacts a game in all the other ways than points per game.

Many would say the Warriors point-forward is much more impactful because of his play-making abilities which is one of the best in the league, some say it’s that great because he has played with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Kevin Durant.

In any which case it would be tremendous to see how these two would flair in a one-on-one contest that would entice the NBA community no less than a game between Michael Jordan and LeBron James.

 

Draymond Green vs Dennis Rodman would be a game that would break the internet and it looks like its AR version would do it too, for Kevin Durant it surely would.

Recently, Bleacher Report dropped a teaser for the new episode of the “The Portal” that comes out on Wednesday. It will have the 2017 DPOY, Draymond Green, going against the 2x DPOY, defensive GOAT of the 90s, Dennis Rodman.

The Slim Reaper looked as excited as anybody else on NBA Twitter for the same but he didn’t leave any opportunity to troll his former teammate and the Bulls legend.

Some want the defensive juggernauts to defend themselves on KD’s trolling.

Who among the two is better would be a question for which we wouldn’t get an answer till eternity, like the rest of the GOAT talks. But if we had them playing in the same era against each other, the animosity of that game is beyond imagination.

And so would be their off-the-court banter, as both players love attention and are some of the most animated players to ever set foot on the basketball court, if not the most.
