Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors is not happy with the Eastern Conference and especially how they are just rolling through teams in the postseason. The Cavaliers have swept both the Toronto Raptors and the Indiana Pacers to advance to the Eastern Conference finals.
Per Chris Haynes of ESPN, Green wanted those teams to compete harder and challenge LeBron:
“I thought teams would compete a little harder,” Green said after shootaround on Monday. “I just watched San Antonio-Houston. I like to watch good basketball. When you watch Cleveland play, you’re only watching one side of the good basketball. That’s kind of weak.
“I like watching a good game, not even necessarily that it’s going to be a close game. I like to watch teams playing good basketball. When you watch them, you watch one team playing good basketball and everybody else do something. I don’t know what that something is.”
This also comes at a time where the Golden State Warriors have also swept their way to their respected conference finals (Portland Trail Blazers and Utah Jazz.) But Green wants us to know that the Jazz plays a better brand of basketball than both Indiana and Toronto.
“Nah, but I think Utah is still playing good basketball,” he said. “Regardless if they win or not, I think we’re a better team. But at the same time, they still play a good brand of basketball.”
