A combination of a lot of winning and the glitz and glam of wearing the purple and yellow, had morphed into somewhat of a joke in recent years as they floundered near the bottom of the western conference and whiffed [...]

Draymond Green would love to end his career with the best team in NBA history. Go figure, right? Except, there’s more to his loyalty and interest in staying with the Golden State Warriors than tongue-in-cheek formalities.

Danny Green’s Kawhi Leonard takes are music to Toronto Raptors fans’ ears. It would not be a stretch to say most expect the two-time Defensive Player of the Year to head elsewhere as a free agent next summer.
