Draymond Green entered unfamiliar territory this offseason as he dipped his
toes into NBA free agency for the first time in his career.

While he kept an open mind and wanted to explore his options, Green recently
revealed his agent Rich Paul is one of the biggest reasons why the four-time
champion turned down "substantially" greater offers to re-sign with the
Warriors last month.

"Most agents, I think they chase the buck, they chase the most money that they
 can get," Green told Philadelphia 76ers guard Patrick Beverley on the latest
episode of "The Pat Bev Podcast." "And what I can appreciate about Rich was
that even as this negotiation came down to it, his number one priority was
keeping me there. And he made it very clear to me that that was his number one
 priority. He had a certain dollar amount that he wanted to get to, that we
wanted to get to, that we had spoken about before it all even began. And I had
 other opportunities that would have paid me more money. And even when I would
 talk to him about what the benefit could be in those opportunities, he would
go silent. And it was more money! Like substantially more money, I'm talking
about [$10 million more] a year more money.

"And he would just go radio silent. And I would almost like talk myself into
believing it and he would just kind of go silent and let me talk. And then the
 conversation would kind of just end. ... He made it very clear to me and
evident just how important loyalty is, how important the situation that you're
 in is, and for me, I've been there my entire career. Not to just walk away
from that because that dollar amount looks better. That shiny object over
there ain't always what it seems like. The way Rich stayed in the pocket and
just, the only thing to him, was my legacy, like yeah we're going to get you
paid, but your legacy is more important than anything. And that helped me keep
 focus on not drift too far."
