The Warriors can’t afford to lose Draymond Green now or later.
The Dubs’ offense doesn’t fare much better, either.The Warriors are five points per 100 possessions worse on offense, and six points worse on defense Green is off the floor .
To play Poole and Curry without Green behind them, taking on the easy passers-by on the perimeter? That’s a defensive disaster waiting to happen.Jonathan Kuminga might become a true defensive ace one day, but right now, he’s trying to figure out point-of-attack defense. He’s certainly not ready to be a Green-like sweeper anytime soon.
This Warriors’ dynasty — of whatever we’re calling four titles in seven years — was built on revolution on both sides of the court. But it was Green’s defensive versatility that was just as important to Golden State’s success. The Warriors’ roster was built with wings, but it was Green’s ability to play center at an elite level, despite being 6-foot-5, and his second-to-none instincts that created a switch-everything defensive juggernaut the rest of the NBA tried to replicate.
