The eight-time NBA All-Star enumerated Green’s weapons during the news conference held following the game. Irving was questioned by an NBA reporter on the intimidation tactics that DrayMagic presented on the court. Irving praised the Dubs star immediately away, not even pausing for thought.
Kyrie Irving stated, “He’s always mucking the game up, that’s always been Dre’s personality. That’s not just like on the physical end, it’s just on the IQ. He has a very very high IQ.”
Soon after seeing Draymond Green’s performance at the Chase Centre, Kyrie Irving talked about it. It was anyone’s game in the Dubs-Mavs match, which went right down to the wire.
Green, though, didn’t allow the game to get away from them; he came up with huge plays on both sides of the ball to help them win 104–100.
