In case you’ve been living under a rock, the NBA Champion Golden State Warriors are in the middle of a kerfuffle pitting Defensive MVP Draymond Green against straight-up MVP Kevin Durant. Amidst all the speculation about the long-term outcome for the Warriors, Michael Pina of Vice Sports wonders what would happen if they traded away Green to appease Durant and enhance his chances of remaining with the club beyond his current contract.
Pina is quick to point out that his scenario is speculative...
This isn’t to say Golden State should or will trade the perennial Defensive Player of the Year candidate just to appease the unappeasable Durant.
