Draymond Green: Winning a championship is 'better than sex'

While fans and media concentrate on the Golden State Warriors' quest to exceed the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls' record of 72 wins, Draymond Green and co. are more focused on winning another ring.

Green expressed his desire to win back-to-back titles to Sports Illustrated's Rick Reilly, proclaiming that a championship is pretty much the best feeling in the world.

“My greatest fear is never experiencing (winning a championship) again,” Green said. “It’s better than sex.”

The Warriors are the favorites to repeat, according to ESPN's BPI playoff odds, with a 42.7-percent chance of winning the title.

After last season's breakout campaign, Green has been even better in 2015-16, leading the NBA in triple-doubles with 11, while averaging 13.8 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 7.4 assists.

The Warriors will attempt to chase 73 wins if the opportunity presents itself, Reilly reports, with Golden State needing to go 20-4 down the stretch to break Chicago's record.
