Is this like a Monstars stealing talent in “Space Jam” situation? Probably not.
The Golden State Warriors’ emergence as the premiere team of this generation have left everyone wanting to emulate them. It’s a noble goal, but probably an unrealistic one because of just how amazing and unlikely the Warriors’ own journey was.
Still, it hasn’t stopped players from trying. The Los Angeles Lakers hiring former Warriors interim head coach/assistant Luke Walton has only intensified cries for the purple-and-gold to take a few cues from the Dubs.
Larry Nance, Jr. was the last to do so, saying that he wants to play the Draymond Green role for the Lakers.
