Good morning and welcome to a special edition of the NBA Daily. I'm your host, Zena Kata, and I'm joined by one of my favorite people in the world, Marcus Thompson. And I don't know if you guys heard over the weekend, but a particular player from a particular team that Marcus and I are very well acquainted with had some choice words about the future of that team.
Marcus, did you hear these words that I'm referring to?
Yeah, I really miss what Brandon Pajewski said. What did he say? Yeah.
It wasn't Brandon. It wasn't Brandon. But if anything, it's Brandon's mentor, the guy that he looks up to and wants to be like. Draymond Green, always known to be a bold figurehead for the Warriors, made some really big claims as he was part of the TNT. Big claims. Part of the TNT broadcast.
Like the biggest claims ever.
Well, Steph Curry, you know, alluded to how big they were, too, in his post All-Star Game press conference. But Draymond, I'll go ahead and read the quote. But at some point, as he's explaining where he thinks the Warriors are going to be, he said, I'm sorry. I said, I think we're going to win a championship. But I lied. We are going to win the championship. Boom.
Now, of course, he was referencing where the Warriors stand since Jimmy Butler, Jimmy Butler, the third, joined the Warriors. They've been three and one since they closed out a road stint with a win against the Houston Rockets before they went into All-Star weekend. Three and one looks good.
Definitely looks a lot better than the ability that, you know, the Warriors had to be able to have a lot of wins stacked up. Still haven't been able to get three in a row. But it's been a while since they got three in a row, but they look good.
