Green admits that the Rockets series has had an impact on him: "I ve been confused for the past two days"

According to US sports media F/W contributor Sidante Gupta: Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green admitted that his poor performance in the first round against the Rockets had an impact on his form. But he also added that it was like the motivation that helped him improve in the pivotal Game 7. Warriors forward Draymond Green looks reminiscent of his usual self, with the Warriors finishing their first-round series against the Houston Rockets 103-89 away.

While discussing the impact of the series, Green talked to the media about the impact it had on him personally in a post-match press conference. He said: "We had some heart to heart communication after the last game. My wife, one of my closest friends, my barber Travis, who was one of my closest friends, and coach Izzo, I pouted so much in the last two days. So I was embarrassed for thinking about what I gave and what I paid for the world."

"I've been eager to stand up and prove who I am since the end of the last game," he added. "One thing about this league is that you will never finish proving who you are until you finish. Completely done. So I want to stand up and prove who I am again. Calm, but the same enthusiasm, the same tenacity."

Green is undoubtedly proven to be a valuable asset when the team needs it most. In the last two losses, the forward has scored seven points in Game 5 and eight in Game 6, scoring in single digits. The only highlight is that he had seven assists in Game 6. However, he also brought four turnovers to his team.

Green undoubtedly turned the situation around in Game 7. Despite his four personal fouls, the striker looks reminiscent of his former self. He only had one turnover that night, with 16 points, five assists and six rebounds. It turns out to be priceless because it keeps the Warriors long enough to see the team's offense begin. Green's performance provided the Warriors' stars with the game. Although Stephen Curry came on the court with an injury, he scored 22 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists. Meanwhile, Jimmy Butler himself scored 20 points, 8 rebounds and seven more assists. The unexpected heroes of the Golden State Warriors were Buddy Hilder and his unparalleled three-pointer on Sunday night. Hilder shot 9-11 from the arc, contributing a total of 33 points, leading the team to score against Houston. In a crucial game, the Warriors demonstrated the toughness and motivation that the champion team is unique. Even without some key rotation players unable to play, the team united to secure their place in the next round. The

Warriors' victory celebration will be short-lived as they will be facing the well-rest Timberwolves next. The first game will be held on Tuesday ET. Who do you think will win the semi-finals to get off to a good start?
