NBA fans roasted Draymond Green for his recent comment on Skip Bayless being a hater. Green was the guest on Shaquille O'Neal’s “The Big Podcast”, where the Golden State Warriors star remarked that Bayless was the "biggest hater outside the NBA".
Labeling Bayless a big LeBron James hater, Green said that the FS1 Undisputed host's hate for James is without any ground.
“Biggest hater outside the NBA is Skip Bayless. Dude just sit up there and spew hate. I hope I can give him a soundbite for this show because it's dying. When you are hating on LeBron James for every single day…there is nothing that this man has given you something to hate on every single day. You are a hater,” Green remarked.

"Draymond being hating on Rudy every game he does on TNT," a fan wrote.
"Doesn't he do the same thing on inside the NBA?" another fan asked.

Shannon Sharpe slams Draymond Green’s comment about NBA fine
In the same episode of the podcast, Draymond Green also commented about the league fining the players. Green said that the way the league fines the NBA players does not help them financially once they are done playing.
Former NFL Hall of Fame player Shannon Sharpe took issue with Green’s comments. Alluding to Draymond Green’s past controversial actions on and off the court, Sharpe said that the rules are there to protect players from getting seriously hurt.
"How about stop kicking people in their privates? How about stop punching your teammates?...If there were no rules in the NBA, how hard you think somebody would foul? What do you think people would do? You've got to have rules," Sharpe remarked.
Green spent most of his last season surrounded by controversies. He was suspended for five games without pay. In those five games, Green lost $769,704 as a part of his per-game payment. He has lost a substantial amount of money due to multiple suspensions throughout his career.
