Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy always tells it like it is, and he isn't holding anything back on his thoughts on Draymond Green, the Boston Celtic's chance of winning the NBA Finals and even revealing his thoughts on the future of New England Patriots QB sensation Mac Jones.
Portnoy never seems to disappoint. And this time around is no different.
Dave Portnoy Continues To Heckle Draymond Green
After brilliantly heckling Golden State Warriors Draymond Green in Game 4 of the NBA Finals as Green headed to the bench, Portnoy who wore a laugh-out-loud shirt that exclaimed, 'Draymond Is A Jerk Face' continues to not hold back on the verbal dissection of Green with a few more hilarious jabs towards the NBA star. Portnoy was caught out and about by Adam Glyn and Green was still on his mind as he continued laying into the NBA All-Star by talking about the shirt and Green's character saying, "I definitely think he saw the shirt but he didn't say anything, he is playing like such a bum, such a coward, I think he was embarrassed for his own existence. He wasn't in the talking mood."
It didn't end there as Portnoy continued to preach and almost expect that Green was going to get back at him on Green's podcast mentioning, "Yeah I mean, maybe on his own he will, Portnoy continued, ''He really didn't have much to say and Steph (Curry) bailed him out that game."
No word on if Portnoy will be at Game 6 on Thursday June 16th, but if if he is or isn't, his energy is needed to get the Celtics back on track to potentially win the NBA title, which he has predictions on as well.

Though it might be a difficult hole to come out of, Portnoy sees that the Celtics will actually get their record breaking 18th championship, he has predicted the Celtics fate in the series and what the team has to do to win it all as he exclaimed, "I think it is going to be the Celtics in seven, but it's going to be an uphill battle. I think we definitely win in Boston on Thursday and then Game 7, anything can happen. I mean the Celtics have been resilient all season, but you got to score than what, sixteen, eighteen, twenty points in the fourth quarter."
Pretty sound stuff that many might agree with, it will be a hard-fought battle but Portnoy knows what he is talking about, so hopefully for Celtics fans, they take his advice and make his prediction a reality. And if it comes true, it is not the only set of championships he sees in the future for Boston sports. He might be wanting the C's to win but he already has his mind set on the NFL season and has lots of views on how the Patriots will do now that they are a year more removed from Tom Brady and in the Mac Jones era. His thoughts are interesting.
Dave Portnoy Sees A Handful Of Championships For Mac Jones
To follow in the footsteps of Tom Brady is a very lofty position to be in, but Portnoy anticipates quite a bit of success for the New England Patriots QB in the years to come. Portnoy when questioned about the QB's future instantly thought that the future of Jones is very good, if not great as he mentioned the success he expects from the young QB as he continued his lofty predictions mentioning, "I love Mac Jones, I absolutely think he is the perfect replacement, I mean he will never be another Tom Brady but Mac Jones is going to win a handful of Super Bowls."
So now we are in the wait and see mode. A few more months and years for us to see how the Mac Jones journey continues on, but what we will see rather soon is if Portnoy's thoughts come to fruition on the Celtics and if Green claps back on Portnoy from his continued jabs as Portnoy continues to speak his mind.
One thing is for sure, we see it as all a bunch of fun and we can't wait to see what is next, but as we said earlier, Portnoy always delivers, so we are all in for something good and his predictions to become reality.
