PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT (SEE COMMENTS FOR FULL)
00:00 Can you kind of describe the play? What happened on the play where kind of Jimmy got — it seemed like you guys were in a rebound mix and Jimmy obviously got undercut and got hurt.
00:09 DRAYMOND GREEN, POSTGAME G2-GSW-HOU: I don't know. I was trying to box out Thompson and somehow he ended up under Jimmy legs. I don't know. I didn't see it.
00:17 How significant, not only obviously was losing Jimmy, but I guess kind of somewhat the shock of losing him?
00:25 It was significant. Anytime you lose one of your best players, one of your top dogs, it's tough to overcome, but thought we did a good job fighting, giving ourselves a chance, we just couldn't get over the hump.
00:38 How much more physical was this game compared to Game 1 ?
00:41 Thought it was a little less physical than Game 1.
00:54 Draymond, Jimmy's had such a dramatic impact at both ends of the court on this team. How does the way you play have to change if he can't play in Game 3?
01:08 I'm sure we'll have to figure that out. It's no easy task and replacing Jimmy, obviously, we all know what he's meant to this team since he been here and we've kind of tailored our offense a bit around him, so that will have to change a bit, but we'll see. He's tough. We got a couple days off, so we'll take it day by day and see where we get.
01:35 Draymond, steve mentioned how it bothered him that the crowd yelled what it yelled, "F — you," of course. I'm just wondering, did you notice it? Did you let it — how did you feel about that?
01:50 It is not original. Been there before, won a championship while it was happening, so yeah, it's not really an original — can't steal other people's sh-t. That belongs to Boston, so I kind of just kept it pushing.
02:10 What do you think you guys didn't do well? Why did you think you guys lost, say?
02:17 Like I said, I just don't think we were able to get over the hump. We kind of hung around, hung around, hung around, but we just couldn't make that push to get over, what was it? Nine points, 11 points. Cut it to nine again, cut it to 11, just couldn't get over the hump, so watch the film, figure it out, be better on Saturday.
02:37 Were you able to talk to Jimmy and see how he feels?
02:39 Jimmy's only gonna tell you he feel good. Like, "You good?" Like, "Of course." So we'll see.
02:46 Do you believe him?
02:50 He's given me zero reasons to not believe anything he says, so I do believe him.
02:57 What made Jalen Green so tough to defend tonight?
03:02 He made some shots. He got going early, which boosts your confidence after the game he had in Game 1. It was going for him tonight. We will figure out what he did better and come back ready for it in Game 3.
03:20 What happened with you and Fred towards the end there?
03:24 Nothing. We were just talking. Everybody came and surrounded and started pushing, but you know a lot happened if I didn't get attacked. If anything happened, I would get attacked, so nothing happened. We were just standing there, talking.

03:45 This Rocket team, their switch-ability on defense, is that something that is giving your offense problems that they can kind of manipulate any kind of screen that you guys are running?
03:55 QUINTEN POST: I mean, they're running some funky matchups where they're guarding — their bigs are guarding some of their wings and, yeah, we just kinda have to adjust, but yeah, they played really good defensively tonight. It was hard for us to score the ball.
04:16 Have you ever been in a series or couple of basketball games as intense as this one? And what is your takeaway from these two…
