What was supposed to be a moment of celebration will finally have a special aftertaste. Tuesday, the Warriors receive the Lakers to start their campaign. This first evening of the regular season will be marked by the usual presentation of the rings for the players of San Francisco, after the title won last June.
Many eyes will be on Jordan Poole and Draymond Green, who should be on the court despite the punch to his teammate. How much can this episode disrupt the reigning champions’ season?
” Well, that’s in the past and it’s very unfortunate, but I think putting the rings back on and time will heal all wounds. », replies Clay Thompsonafter the defeat of his team, this night against the Nuggets.
The quadruple NBA champion says he adores the two protagonists. “ Jordan is like a little brother. Draymond is like a brother. I think we’re all ready to move on. The second act, after last season, is going to be even better. We know what to do for the double “, continues the friend of Stephen Curry.
Adding to that affection, the fullback recalls that Californians have ” need these two players to get where we need to go, that’s a fact. So I expect Jordan to be great. Same for Dray. »
That night, we saw the two men evolve and greet each other as if nothing had happened. A first step to “override” as Klay Thompson says.
