Former Sacramento Kings head coach, Garry St. Jean, joined Chris & Co. with Whitey Gleason Wednesday to talk about the Draymond Green suspension, how the Warriors adjust, and what makes this Kings’ team so special.

All that & more on Chris & Co. with Whitey Gleason.

“This changes the entire outlook of the Warriors,” St. Jean said on the show. “Yes, on the defensive end because he’s the fulcrum to the wheel. And when he’s low-weak side, he’s like the conductor of the orchestra. He’s telling everybody where to go, but he’s seeing things three beats before everybody else. He’s brilliant on that and he can switch everything, he can guard big and small. On the offensive end, I don’t know that he gets enough credit for what he does for that team. He takes a lot of weight off of [Stephen Curry].”

Topics discussed include:

  • Garry’s thoughts on the Kings winning the first two games of the series
  • Who replaces Draymond Green in the starting lineup?
  • Does the Warriors’ bench need to step up at home?
  • Is Golden State in trouble?
  • How do the Kings stay hungry on the road?
  • Is Kevin Huerter more than meets the eye?
