Draymond Green on what Stephen Curry said: 'Yo, I'm trying to figure 'Bron out'
Steph couldn’t believe Bron 😅 @Money23Green (via @TheVolumeSports) “Steph said to me, ‘Yo, I’m trying to figure ‘Bron out,’” Green explained. “After not taking a shot through most of the first half, he ended up getting it going with 21, eight and eight. You know it was big, really big. [He] hit some big shots, some time shots. One of the threes he hit on the wing in the first half was a very timely bucket. And, you know, it slowed our run down.”

The play of Game 3 LAL/GSW was Darvin’s challenge of the AD charge that flipped to put a third on Draymond. The Warriors need Green to slow AD, but he picked up a quick 4th in the 2nd half, which all but squashed the Warriors’ game plan. – 1:33 AM

Por qué Draymond Green sobremarca a Anthony Davis, concediéndole el corte al aro es un misterio. Pero aprecien el colmillo de Austin Reaves con el empujón clave frente al árbitro Bill Kennedy sin cobro.

It’s best-case scenario for the Lakers here with the huge lead, to be able to rest LeBron and AD – especially LeBron – in the 4th Q, with Game 4 coming on Monday.
LeBron played 32 minutes, and Davis 33, with now 7 minutes to play and LAL up 105-77.
Curry played 32, Klay 33. – 11:03 PM

With LAL up 98-72 and 9 minutes to go, Kerr pulled Curry, Green and Klay, but still has a competitive bench group of young guys: Poole, DiVincenzo, Moody, Kuminga and Payton II.

Disaster second quarter for the Warriors. Tripping flagrant on Moody, technicals on Draymond and JaMychal Green, defensive 3-second call. Only scored 18 in the quarter. Just had a 30-8 run put on them in final eight minutes. Went from up 11 to down 11. Twelve turnovers at half. – 9:57 PM

More on this storyline
“I learned so much from those guys,” D’Angelo Russell told The Athletic. “Brushing shoulders with Steph, seeing how he operates, how he moved, how he talked. Draymond Green, seeing the way he can play defense. What everybody (there) does is special, and I got to cross paths with it. I got to see all that, and I put it all in my bag and took it with me, you know what I mean?” -via The Athletic / May 7, 2023
Mark Medina: Warriors’ Draymond Green on how officials have explained difference between a block and charge during playoffs: “You don’t really get explanations.” How does he adapt? Draymond: “I won’t really adapt. I’ll keep playing the same defense that I’ve played for 11 years.” -via Twitter @MarkG_Medina / May 7, 2023
Mike Trudell: Darvin Ham explained one adjustment: “We wanted to keep a body in front of Draymond,” often Vanderbilt, with Reaves moving over to Curry. Green hurt them in short roll in Game 2. But that doesn’t matter without “Our effort, our energy, our urgency,” which Ham thought was great. -via Twitter @LakersReporter / May 6, 2023
