The Golden State Warriors, as they enter the new season, have their sights set on one singular mission: win a championship before the inevitable end of Stephen Curry's career.
Yet, although the team is searching for another star and the temptation potentially exists to move on from aging forward Draymond Green in the process, Buddy Hield, on the latest episode of The Dubs Talk podcast, has reminded all of us just how important of a leader Green is to this team.
The team has already made their blockbuster move for Jimmy Butler, and, although Green does present some obstacles in his lack of a perimeter shot and his need for rest throughout the season, Golden State must come to accept that his role goes far beyond just his numbers on the stat sheet.
