Draymond Green has been watching ESPN’s “The Last Dance” just like the rest of us, but for him, it’s more than just compelling entertainment. He sees a parallel between the situation with coach Phil Jackson and the Chicago Bulls and what his Golden State Warriors went through with Kevin Durant.
It was known before the 1997-98 season that Jackson wouldn’t be returning to the Bulls the next season, meaning the superteam was headed for splitsville. With the Warriors during the 2018-2019 season, no one knew if Durant would re-sign with the Warriors or go somewhere else, also splitting up a dominant team.
