Fadeaway World on MSNDraymond Green Sends Clear Message To Stephen Curry After Game 4 LossThe Golden State Warriors are now down 3-1 to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the Western Conference Semifinals after a 117-110 loss in Game 4. The Warriors are on the brink of elimination, but Draymond Green made it clear postgame that he does not want Stephen Curry to rush back from his hamstring injury for Game 5.
Thus, the question was put to Warriors coach Steve Kerr: Why keep going back to Podziemski as a starter? Why not look to Gary Payton II (Kerr did so in Game 6 vs. Houston) or gamble on, say, Gui Santos or Jonathan Kuminga?
Green is right about Edwards possessing an offensive skill set that no one else in the world can match. Since being drafted first overall in 2020, Minnesota's young star has always been a major force driving to the rim, as evidenced by his absurd highlight reel of poster dunks.
Green hasn't shied away from speaking his mind, but his brief response might indicate that he's more focused on trying to lead Golden State past Minnesota, especially without the 37-year-old Curry. Warriors coach Steve Kerr said they will give an update on the two-time MVP's status for Game 5 on game day.
The Golden State Warriors fell to the Minnesota Timberwolves, 102-97, on Saturday night. They now find themselves down 2-1 in the NBA Playoff series.
Draymond Green said there was an ‘agenda’ surrounding him following a technical he received during the Golden State Warriors’ blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Colin Cowherd discusses Green’s history of foul trouble and the role he’s chosen as a player.
