  • Us Celtics fans are spoiled by the culture/maturity/grace of our players. Jrue fits right in and we love seeing him bring it all onto the court for us game after game.
  • @41netto
    Great interview. I like how Draymond doesn’t interrupt and lets him talk. Not everyone does that.
  • @cmac392
    Out of all the Celtic trades I've never seen Brad Stevens so happy
  • @pfneuman
    Jrue Holiday, such a gentleman! Warriors fan wishing you and the Celtics all the best in the playoffs. Go get it 🏆!
  • @erl-qe9qf
    Thank you, Draymond. As a 68 yr old lifelong Celtic fan, I’ve hated you as an opponent, but having seen your friendly, sincere, compassionate personality, I’ve done a 180. Great questions and comments to Jrue. He is a true gem of a basketball player and human being and as a someone who watched the great defense of Dennis Johnson, Bird’s favorite teammate, Jrue maintains the great Celtics tradition. We are blessed he’s in Boston!
  • @yoFutxre
    As a Boston fan I always respected what Jrue has done on both ends of the court, but now that he is on my team I’ve seen the person that he is and I’m truly amazed. Absolute class and genuinely a great person. Glad to have a person of his character in a team I’m rooting for.🙏 Nothing but love in Boston for him.
  • @shezpherd
    Love Jrue. The end when he goes talking about his wife and stuff, Jrue is a damn good dude. So happy he’s with the Cs and hope it’s for the long haul.
  • @andogrando487
    Jrue is just such a genuinely awesome dude - it was so hard to see him leave Milwaukee the city loved him and appreciated everything he and his wife were doing for the community. Honestly feel like we could've ran it back, like man it was tough moment when I saw that trade.
  • @Trunx
    as a bucks fan i’ll always love and miss jrue
  • @BulletAgario
    I was so excited when I heard we traded for Jrue. I’ve always wanted him on the Celtics especially after watching him on the bucks.
  • @giombi15
    This interview made me realize Giannis requested to trade Jrue for Dame. Jrue just too polite to say it
  • yt keeps suggesting this podcast to me and i keep not watching it cause i dont want to stop hating Draymond and the exact thing I feared is happening.
  • @coryricks
    Glad Dray has Jrue on the pod! I just told one of my friends Jrue is one of the best two way players in the NBA. I’m from New Orleans and when he played here I saw it with my own eyes.
  • @GD1_3
    Jrue is going to be that piece that gets Boston over the hump! We're stoked to have him and his family here in Boston. Hopefully for a bit 🍀🍀🍀🍀
  • @Krideezy
    Jrue a funny ass fella. Always loved how he plays. He plays the game right. Respect.
