"It's frustrating"- Draymond Green is not happy with the thought of Bob Myers leaving the Warriors
Draymond Green, star player for the Golden State Warriors, expressed his dissatisfaction with the potential departure of Warriors General Manager Bob Myers.
Following the Warriors' playoff exit in the semifinal round, Myers mentioned the possibility of parting ways with the organization. This news is disheartening for the team and fans, as Myers has played a crucial role in building the Warriors' dynasty since 2011.
Draymond Green shared his thoughts on Myers' potential departure during an episode of his podcast. He said:
"That does suck, because again, Bob is one of the guys I rode in with, that I've been on this journey with for 11 years and have all been plugging away each and every year trying to deliver championships. That's what makes us go, that's what we're all in it for. The possibility that he may not be here does not sit well with me. It's frustrating."
He expressed his frustration, stating that Myers has been a key figure in their championship pursuit over the past 11 years. Green emphasized the deep relationship he shares with Myers, having experienced both the hardships and successes together.
The Warriors intend to offer Myers a contract that could see him become the highest-paid GM in league history.
However, as per certain reports, Myers appears to be "torn" about the decision. There should be an answer on the same in the coming weeks.
Sources: Warriors and president of basketball operations Bob Myers have had no substantial contract extension talks in months and the sides are bracing for the likelihood that Myers could walk away from the franchise.

Draymond Green's future with the Warriors
While Bob Myers' return is an uncertainty at the moment, the Golden State Warriors may see some more changes in the upcoming offseason. With a lot of contract extensions due, the Warriors may see some significant personnel changes with regards to Draymond Green and Klay Thompson.
The Warriors face a tricky salary cap situation at the moment. After handing out extensions to Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole, the Warriors may not have the money to pay Green and Thompson.
In light of this, Green has garnered attention as a potential free agent. With teams such as the LA Lakers being rumored to be heavy favorites, it will be interesting to see how the story unfolds.
