Draymond Green: Warriors are ‘kind of pissed off’
The Golden State Warriors are going into Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals with a chip on their shoulders.
Draymond Green said on Wednesday that the team is “kind of pissed off” after losing Game 4 of the series at home to the Houston Rockets to tie things at 2-2.

“Kind of pissed off. We know we let one slip away,” Green said. “But encouraged as well. I love the way this team responds when our back is against the wall. I don’t mind our backs being against the wall because I know what we’re capable of and I know the level of focus and intensity level our team brings when that is the case.”
The series now becomes a best of three, with Houston holding homecourt advantage for two of the three games. That means Golden State will have to win at least one game on the road in order to advance.
Even though they lost Game 4, based on what Green is saying, the defeat may bring the best out of them over the remainder of the series.
