“I be getting on dudes that want to do the podcast while they’re playing,” Brooks, who took home Western Conference Player of the Week on Monday, said. “They’re all terrible.”
When N3on specifically brought up Green’s podcast, The Draymond Green Show, Brooks doubled down.
“He talks to much for me,” the Suns forward added. “But I’m saying they’re not good at basketball because of they’re so focused on the (podcasts).”
It didn’t take long for Brooks’ comments to get back to Green.

“He said we talk too much on our podcast, but he’s been kind of going on other people’s stream and just like talking too much, if you will. I found it funny. I thought it was cute. You say they’re not good at basketball. You… pic.twitter.com/0T25sld84S

“I don’t really feel the need to get into a back and forth. If I was Dillon Brooks, I wouldn’t have much love for this podcast, either, being he was annihilated on this podcast,” Green said Monday. “It possibly aided in him being traded away from the Memphis Grizzlies where he ultimately said he really enjoyed playing there. I get it. I completely get it.
“I know my name move waves around this place,” Green said. “So, I get it. ‘Say Draymond’s name, I get a little more attention.’ That’s cute. And I respect it because it’s true. Unfortunate that he wasn’t able to make his first All-Star game.”
Brooks and Green have had a well-publicized beef across the past three years ever since Brooks criticized Green during an interview with ESPN in 2023.
That’s led to some heated in-game moments between the duo, with the latest one occurring during a regular season contest in the 2024-25 season.
As for when the two will face each other next? Thursday night in Phoenix.

My goodness Draymond is such a ridiculous narcissist.. GS has been trying forever to get away from him, and he knows it too.. The Roster and especially Kerr can’t stand him.. Why? Cause he darn near ruined a young man’s life in how he sucker punched Poole!
Brooks says a little 5 sec clip of who cares when being asked a question..
And Greens response is to hilariously say he’s not going to respond, then goes on a total rant tearing him down.. The cherry on top is he uses himself in the 3rd person when on his “own” podcast!!!!!
That’s really funny!!!
All I know is whenever Draymond and Brooks are on the same court, I’m glued to the screen. It’s barely basketball at that point usually teetering on wrestling, and I love it.
I'd buy a ticket if I knew these two would duke it out in the middle of a game.
We ain't winning the chip this year, but seeing DG get his butt beat on our court would be WELL worth the suspension, fine, and my ticket cost.
