From 2015 to 2022, the Warriors have lifted the Larry O’Brien Trophy four times. But which championship title among these was the most complicated to obtain? Draymond Green responded with a statement that simply seemed like a dig at Kevin Durant.

For nearly a decade, the Warriors dynasty asserted its domination over the league. Against all expectations, the Warriors had a fantastic season by winning the title in 2015. Always thirsty for victories, the Californians then made a series of appearances in the Finals. During the first triumph, Stephen Curry was widely considered the franchise player and had been voted MVP twice in a row.

 

But after the defeat in the Finals against the Cavaliers in 2016, Kevin Durant came to strengthen this armada of superstars while shaking up the hierarchy. Two other titles won in a row then followed. After the departure of the Easy Money Sniper, the Dubs obtained one more ring in 2022. Guest of the Club 520 podcast , Draymond Green spoke about the most complicated race for the coronation according to him.
