How Would Ben Simmons Fit With the Warriors, and What are the Odds It Could Happen?
When you list the teams that have to hit the mark this offseason, the Golden State Warriors arguably find themselves among the list.

Draymond joined Tom Brady, Kid Cudi, Chelsea Handler and Paul Rivera for a discussion about the grind of winning, charting one's own path, mental health and sports media. At one point in the episode, Handler mentioned how she believes the ability to deputize is one of the real signs of a leader, which sent Green off into an NSFW rant about the criticism he receives for not shooting enough:

A Perfect Draft Day Scenario for the Warriors
It's almost here. The anticipation is killing me. This is one of the more important days in the Bob Myers’ era. Anytime you have two picks in the lottery, all eyes are going to be on you and your decisions. Will a trade up be happening on draft day? I don’t think so, this draft is extremely loaded and Bob is happy with his two spots… and no way in hell am I involving James Wiseman in any trade so stop talking about that. Myers will be able to find some studs where he’s at.
