Draymond Green has never been a player short of confidence, but it’s fair to say he caught everyone off guard when he claimed during All-Star Weekend that the Golden State Warriors would win the NBA championship this season.

“Before Butler arrived, Green had a standing request of the team’s front office that he deemed vital to their renaissance: Go get another “a–hole,” as one team source described it,” the two wrote. “Another fiery, two-way talent like him who would say what needed to be said at all times and compete on the knife’s edge on both ends of the floor.”

Stephen Curry is fully on board with Draymond Green's championship prediction following the Jimmy Butler trade.
