Whenever you feel bad for NBA players dealing with criticisms and trade rumors, just remember that they make more in a year than most of us will make in a lifetime. They enjoy their lives to the max. And in case you doubted Green's dedication he started his trip off with this tweet:
Just finished a tough workout in HOT brazil...my legs are gone, noodle legs r in effect lol
