The Warriors’ mercurial leader stepped into the NBA Finals spotlight in Game 2, picking up an early technical foul and then getting into a scrape with Celtics star Jaylen Brown later on. He appears to have taken permanent residency in the Celtics’ psyche.
The Warriors’ mercurial leader stepped into the NBA Finals spotlight in Game 2, picking up an early technical foul and then getting into a scrape with Celtics star Jaylen Brown later on. He was in everyone’s ear all game long, and apparently in their heads, too. Draymond Green’s physical play and emotional intensity sparked Golden State to a runaway victory, evening the series at one game apiece going into Game 3 Wednesday night.
The Celtics went to great lengths Tuesday to downplay the impact Green’s head games might have on their team. But there’s no denying it. Boston lost its composure Sunday night, and their game suffered. Brown took the brunt of Green’s emotion after Draymond switched over to defend the Celtics’ explosive guard. The former Cal star understood the tactic, having seen it before.
Warriors head coach Steve Kerr knew what was at stake. But he also knows Draymond Green. This is how he does.
