Stephen A. Smith Goes Scorched Earth on Draymond Green and Shaquille O'Neal

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green made a recent appearance on Shaquille O'Neal's "The Big Podcast".

Among the many topics the duo discussed were sports media icon Stephen A. Smith.

"Stephen A. Smith really pissed me off," Green told Shaq. He went on to explain that, regardless of what Smith seems like on camera, Green has always defended his character when people speak poorly of Smith to him.

But Green believes Smith didn't do the same for him, when the sports media was roasting screen for his series of on-court antics during the 2024 NBA season.

And Green "lost a lot of respect" for Smith as a result.

Stephen A. Smith then went on First Take Thursday morning, and went scorched earth on both Green and Shaq.

"It would have been nice for Shaq to follow up, and say 'yo, this is Stephen A. you're talking about. This brother always defends you.'"

Smith then calls out Green by saying, "We talk about being men. I'm not hard to find! Draymond could have called me up. Draymond could have had a conversation with me."

And that's not all Smith had to say about the podcast episode.
