DeMar And The Warriors
Over the years Green has been arguably the biggest recruiter for the Golden State Warriors. When it came to his friend DeRozan, it was no different. Almost pestering, Green let DeRozan know San Fransisco was the best place to win a championship.A great pitch in itself as Golden State won the title last year, DeRozan had other plans."I'm like 'Bruh, you come to the Warriors, we can win a championship if you come to the Warriors.' He didn't come. We still won a championship, but he didn't come. I had to throw that one out there."
"Last year, free agency, talking to you every day like 'Yo, you good? What about this, what about that?' Then the conversation turned to 'Come to the Warriors' and you were like, 'F—, no. I'm not coming there. I'm not coming to play with y'all.'
Jordan's Legacy
It comes with any star playing in the city of Chicago. Derrick Rose went through it. Jimmy Butler for a short stint and now Zach LaVine and DeRozan are experiencing it. The shadow of Michael Jordan will always loom over the house he built on the west side of the city. DeRozan said he feels like he has to bring it every night for the fans in the United Center as a Bulls player. It was only four or five games into last season when he truly felt the weight of that legacy. That feeling came when he air-balled the game-winning shot against the Knicks.I felt like I disrespected the aura of what these fans are used to seeing..... I told myself I'd never be in that position again.Luckily for the Bulls fandom, DeMar DeRozan has yet to disappoint on that promise.
