Draymond Green has rejoined the Golden State Warriors, and it would be understandable if the mood were a bit tense after his punch of teammate Jordan Poole. He's just trying to move past it.
"My general view of the year is I'm here this year trying to win a championship. I have a contract that ranges through next year. If I so choose to pick up that option, that is my view of how it will be here. We all have a goal to win a championship and that is that. As far as what I think of a contract or an extension, we started camp and I spoke on that at the very beginning, I said 'I don't think we're doing an extension.
"If you're going to let a contract situation linger, then you better be damn sure that you're willing to handle all the effects of a contract lingering, that it can have on a team. Everybody don't do that. We've seen LeBron James have contract situations, we've seen Stephen Curry have contract situations. They handle it the way it's supposed to be handled. Can't say that for everyone.
Even if they aren't spoken, those questions won't go away as the 32-year-old Green enters a potential contract year. But as the Warriors have shown for several years now, winning can brush all kinds of issues under the rug.
