Golden State Warriors

Gobert was one of the many initial critics of the Durant to Warriors move this summer, and tweeted about it at the time, only for it to be suspiciously deleted after Saturday’s game.

Green headed to the bench after the play, and as he did the power forward started taunting the Utah crowd. Holding his hand up to the air, Green first held up two fingers, followed by no fingers – a reference to the Warriors current 2-0 lead in the series.

There are many in the Bay Area who don’t believe that Stephen Curry gets the same treatment that many of the other superstars in the NBA receive.

The Golden State head coach is seeing a specialist at Duke Medical Center Friday, in attempts to figure out a solution to the lingering symptoms from his 2015 back surgery that have kept him away from the team for two weeks, according to Ramona Shelburne of ESPN. Kerr had been receiving treatment at Stanford for much of last week.

Boring or not that’s where the Warriors are heading on Saturday with a 2-0 series lead. When they arrive, Draymond Green doesn’t exactly expect a warm welcome. He also has no problem with that.

Green’s five 3’s helped lead the Warriors over the Jazz 115-104, despite another imperfect all-around performance.

Green was down on the court for a few minutes surrounded by the trainers and Warriors teammates. The Oracle Arena crowd chanted “Draymond! Draymond!” before the do-it-all forward walked under his own power to the locker room. Green returned to the Warriors bench later in the fourth quarter.

LaVar Ball, the outspoken father of UCLA standout point guard Lonzo Ball, released his son’s first Big Baller Brand signature sneaker on Thursday. Unbelievably, the shoes are being sold for a whopping $495.

ESPN basketball expert Amin Elhassan joined Gary and Larry on Thursday afternoon and said that he believes Green is not just one of the best defenders in the league, but a top 10 player overall.

Recently Matt Barnes took shots at the Salt Lake City nightlife by saying…it’s non-existent. Rudy Ortiz, from KNBR 1050’s morning show The Audible stopped by the Digital Lounge to back Matt Barnes up.
