“I thought it was a little bit less physical than Game 1,” Draymond Green said. The Warriors made it a point not to complain about Houston’s physicality postgame, instead blaming their poor defense on Jalen Green as the night’s biggest problem, understanding that this series will need to be won in a rugged environment when it restarts in San Francisco. “Actually I might agree with (Draymond that it was less physical),” Curry said. “There were a couple crashes that happened out there, but we know what they’re trying to do — use their size advantage at times to try to bully us. We held up a pretty good fight both games. We just let Jalen get going a little bit and he got free to space. There’s no reason he should get up 18 3s.” -via New York Times / April 24, 2025
