Draymond Green: '[Malik] Monk said we was old'

Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
“Once he did that, you have no choice but to rise up. He f—ing got everybody locked in.” — Draymond Green
Before making Game 7 history with 50, it was a speech and a promise from Steph Curry that saved the Warriors’ season.

David Locke @DLocke09
Steve Kerr doesn’t get enough credit for how great some of their plays sets are. End of quarter. Knew they were going to double Steph. So runs Steph off Draymond pick, they double. Draymond goes and picks for Klay. No one to help because Draymond’s man is doubling Steph – 5:43 PM

Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Kings fail to make up any ground with Steph and Draymond out because they can’t get a defensive rebound. This is about the most dominating stretch I can remember by a team on the offensive glass to start the 3rd by the Warriors. – 5:24 PM

Jimmy Spencer @JimmySpencer
Just watched the package of old school highlights from the Knicks-Heat rivalry … everyone is so excited.
The same people excited are the ones who whine the most that Draymond is too physical or talks too much.
Explain it to me. – 12:15 PM
