00:00 Draymond, at what point in your mind on that drive are you loading up the Night-Night? It seemed like you were really ready to do that.
00:09 DRAYMOND GREEN: No, it actually just came to me once I laid the ball up. I wasn't really thinking about it. Then I laid the ball up. I turned, I saw Steph and he was like, "Ding, it's time." So at least I think that's what happened. I don't know, sometimes I just be in the moment of loss. It was fun. Really fun. It's good to see KAT show up and play like that. He played hard, played well. He was physical. Probably the most physical I've ever seen him. Had a little extra motivation, so that made the game really fun. That was great.
00:46 Dray, how much better — or do you feel better now, in a game like that, where it's physical and you have a lot more strength, athleticism on this team? Do you feel better about being able to engage in a game like that?
00:59 100%. I think before, we just didn't quite have the size to match up to that type of size that that team has and physicality that they play with. Now we do and it makes the game a lot more manageable, a lot more fun to play in. And it obviously gives us a — ooh, ooh, I got him.
01:22 That was nice. Yeah, so I think — and obviously you can see in the wins that we can stand up to that type of physicality a lot better than we could before.
01:36 (Question of if he should have done the Night-Night on the insect he just killed.)
01:39 Oh, I should have, he gone.
01:43 We've all seen Moses get minutes and then come out of lineup and do something good and then come out. What's it been like to see him really, really get the minutes, flourish? He's in the rotation. And what's the difference in him, do you think, this last time?
01:57 I think his attention to detail is just way greater than it was. Moses came in here as a — or 18-, 19-year-old kid playing six months of college basketball, needing to learn a lot and I heard him say one of the most mature things. He said, "Man, I could have developed in college. I chose to develop in the NBA. So this is my path." And you can't get that from a lot of young guys these days. Everybody thinks it's just supposed to be their turn when they arrive and that's just not real. That's not how it works. I saw something with KD the other day talking about Ryan, Ryan Dunn. And they were asking like, "What were you saying to Ryan Dunn when he wasn't playing?" He said, "I didn't say nothing to him. He's a rookie. Rookies need to go through things." And obviously Moses isn't a rookie, but that first journey, man, first three years, it's tough to make it in this league and it's up and down. You gotta earn your keep, especially coming to a place like this, and he stayed the course, regardless of what noise was around him. Comes from a great family, so the noise is never coming from there, but just the noise in the world that we live in and he stayed the course and he's gotten his opportunity. It's not going anywhere now. It's there to stay, but he earned it and when you earn it, it feels a lot more better when you go through something to get to something.
03:24 Hi, Draymond. In the lineup, in the you and Jimmy lineups without a traditional big, what's a strength you got you think you guys can leverage or possibly unlock?
03:33 I think we're smarter than most bigs, so usually when we're in that lineup they're gonna have a big out there and we can kind of out-think and we can match the physicality. If they don't have a big out there then you don't have any real protection, so — but we feel really good about it. We try to — we work to find Jimmy mismatches in that lineup. Jimmy creates for all of us and…
