The Sacramento Kings have taken a 2-0 series lead against the Golden State Warriors, after beating them 114-106 in Game 2.
De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis led Sacramento to an important Game 2 win, while Draymond Green got ejected after stomping on Sabonis.
NBA Twitter, of course, had something to say about Draymond Green and the Warriors trailing 0-2 in the series.
The Kings beating the Warriors at their own game is NBA poetry

“When I stomped on Sabonis tonight it reminded me of when LeBron could’ve stomped on my chest in 2016 but he kept his cool and just stepped over me instead. That’s why he’s the GOAT.” pic.twitter.com/sE4CS21ESm

Steph Curry: 3 of 13 from 3 with two air balls. Kings shot poorly. Steph shot even worse. The Kings finished No. 1 in offense. Tonight they won with their defense.

The Warriors are the fifth NBA defending champion to fall behind 2-0 in the first round. Each of the prior four went on to lose, with three getting swept. @ESPNStatsInfo
