Draymond Green isn't the only member of the Golden State Warriors who likes the team's chances of taking home an NBA championship this season.
Trade deadline acquisition Jimmy Butler threw his support behind Green's recent championship prediction in an interview with The Athletic's Marcus Thompson II and Sam Amick.
"I don't pay attention to social (media), so I didn't know that (Green) said that," Butler said. "But we do have a chance. And the reason why is not because I'm here. It's not because of the energy that I may or may not bring. It's because everybody thinks that we can win. That's all that matters.
"If everybody thinks that you can do something, then you can do it. I'm not going to say how it was before I was here. I don't know. I wasn't here. But when you go around this locker room, and you see the joy, and you see the excitement that everybody gets to hoop and play basketball with one another, we really think, and we really know, that every time we take the floor, we should win - home or away. That's the difference-maker in this thing."
The Warriors have been on a roll as of late, winning five of their last six games. They currently sit ninth in the Western Conference standings at 30-27 with 25 games remaining on their schedule.
