Green turns on ‘aggressive’ mode, runs over Lakers and warns Warriors: “You have to…”

Draymond Green loaded the Warriors in victory against lakers, last Wednesday night, 10. The player reached his second game in the postseason with 20 points and showed an aggressiveness that had not yet been seen in this semifinal of the Western Conference. The change in posture is due to a council of Jacob Rubinresponsible for developing Golden State athletes.

In a press conference, Green even revealed that he felt disrespected with this comment, but the specialist’s speech seems to have had a positive effect on the athlete. He said that ‘the penny dropped’ for him in relation to the possibility of elimination of the Warriors to the Lakers. With that, the player decided it was time to give an answer.

“That’s being aggressive on both ends of the court. That’s verbal so everyone hears you on the court. I felt a little disrespected when he said that. I knew it was up to me to come out and set the tone for our guys. .. The season is on the line, back against the wall. You have to go out and give it everything you’ve got. That was my mindset“, he stated.

Green even mentioned the offensive delivery of Thompson and Curry and revealed that he did everything to share this role with the two stars: “Just like the teams are banking on Steph and Klay Thompson, they’re really doing everything they can. We get paid a lot of money to do this, so you can’t just sit back and watch them… You have to do something about it.“.

Green’s performance even earned praise from Steve Kerr!

With 20 points, ten rebounds and three steals, Green’s most aggressive attitude in the match against the Lakers was addressed by Steve Kerr at the press conference. The Warriors coach did not hide his satisfaction at having a leader like Draymond: “When he’s aggressive like that, looking forward, it definitely adds another dimension to our team. I loved his approach to the game tonight. … He said, ‘I’m coming’“.

“I think you expect that in a situation (aggressive posture) like this, where you’re facing elimination. Draymond is one of the great competitors I’ve ever had. So you just hope he tries. I didn’t say anything to him. He doesn’t need any conversation”completed the coach of the Warriors about Green.
