00:00 Okay, how tired do you feel right now after all that?
00:07 DRAYMOND GREEN: I'm exhausted. I just want to go home, relax, go to sleep. I'm tired.
00:19 Draymond, can you put into perspective just like what it's like to guard Jokic on however many minutes you did on a night like this, on a second night of a back-to-back after the road trip that you had?
00:30 I mean, he's tough to guard after five days off. A lot tougher to guard on the back-to-back, where he's sitting in San Francisco waiting on us to get back, but I think for the most part, we did a good job. Saying that, he's 13-for-17. He got those threes going there in that third quarter, I think it was, but thought we kept a body on him. He hit some tough shots, why he's great, but overall I think we did the job, got it done, so it's always a tough challenge. Loon was great on him in his minutes. He got nothing easy. We could live with it.
01:15 You made your call on how the season's gonna end up a while ago, but winning in Memphis, beating the Lakers in LA, winning this game on the back-to-back, obviously all playoff teams you might end up playing. What does that tell you guys about yourselves? What's possible?
01:30 It just confirms who we thought we were. We said from the time we got Jimmy, this team, the sky's the limit for this team and I think these games matter. Talked about it yesterday of just getting these young guys these meaningful game minutes and they were playing great. BP was incredible again tonight. Everybody off the bench, QP was good in this minutes, JK was really good in his minutes, so I think it's important for us to continue to play at this level, at a high level. Steph Curry, I thought he'd win Player of the Week after yesterday. I think he'll really win it after today, but man, Jimmy. Jimmy just, he put so much pressure on their defense. He put a lot of pressure on their offense, so yeah, I think just further prove we are who we thought we were.
02:30 Draymond, you just touched on it with Steph, but for him to go 52, 37, 36 in three very big games in four nights, what does that sort of — I mean, you've seen a lot him do a lot, but what does that say and also is that connected to Brandin, kind of how much does Steph's success sort of attracts attention that gives Brandin open shots?
02:50 I mean, Steph — Steph's success attracts attention for everybody and it's always been that way, but BP stepping up and knocking those shots down, he's taking them with confidence. We need it. The way he's shooting the basketball is incredible, so I think we all benefit off Steph. It's not just BP. Everybody who's played with Steph over the course of the last — I can speak for 13 years — has benefited.
03:22 Draymond, whether it was a physicality or something else--
03:24 And if you couldn't benefit, it's your fault. It ain't Steph Curry's fault.
03:28 What changed in the second quarter after giving up 44 and then 16 in the second quarter? What flipped for you guys?
03:34 They started to feel us, I think. That first quarter was kind of track meet. You shoot, I shoot, whoever make the most shots win the quarter and they did. And we gave up 44 points, but we got our defense settled in to start that third quarter — I mean second quarter. And then when the group came back, they continued it on for the rest of the quarter. 16-point quarter was huge, so once we got the 44 under control, I think we pretty much took care of 'em the rest of the game.
04:08 That group that began the second…
