Chasing Dream has publicly stated that he has a bad relationship with Paul and the Warriors big deal heralds the disintegration of Kutangchai?

Before the start of this year's draft, the Warriors sent Jordan Poole back for Chris Paul, the main purpose of this deal is obviously to reduce salary pressure, but Paul's addition also gives the team a veteran who can carry the bench.

Meanwhile, Draymond Green, one of the Warriors' old troika, jumped out of his contract and will become a free agent, and if he finally decides to stay, there will be a potential friction crisis in the locker room. Fadeaway World today turned up Greene's 2020 remarks, when he publicly admitted that he didn't like Chris Paul and pointed out that their relationship was not good.

"I don't like CP at all, our relationship is not good at all. But I respect his fighting spirit, respect his basketball IQ. Green said at the time.

Of course, the relationship between Green and Paul may improve after this remark, and even if Paul and Green do not have a good personal relationship, once the two become teammates, we can expect them to maintain a sufficient professional attitude.

This past 2022-23 regular season, Paul averaged 13.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game for the Suns. He's still a good player who can contribute to a championship team, and if the Warriors win, it will also be the first championship of Paul's career.

However, given Paul's age and style of play, the Warriors' move to bring him in has been met with some criticism. Famous mouth Stephen A. Smith is one of them, who claims he hates the deal "from a basketball perspective."

"I don't like the deal at all, I love CP3... But from a basketball perspective, I don't like the deal... This is a commercial move... I don't see any benefit in this, and I don't think the two sides are suitable for each other... I think they need taller players... Based on the status quo, I don't think it's a good option. Smith said.

It remains to be seen exactly how Paul will integrate into the Warriors. However, the team has always been adept at digging out valuable contributions from veterans, and with Paul's ability, head coach Steve Kerr should be able to find a way to find a suitable place for him in his system.
