Draymond Green says the Golden State Warriors play their best basketball “when our backs are against the wall.”
The Warriors are down 2-1 in the 2019 NBA Finals to the Toronto Raptors and will once again be without superstar small forward Kevin Durant in Game 4. If the Dubs lose Game 4 at home, they would head back to Toronto down 3-1.

We've seen this movie before. Everyone doubts the Warriors and then they have a vintage performance proving everyone wrong. With All-Star shooting guard Klay Thompson expected to play in Game 4, it wouldn't shock anyone in Oakland to see the Warriors win Game 4 with ease.
Green scored 17 points in the Game 3 loss. He was the second-leading scorer for the Warriors behind superstar point guard Stephen Curry, who dropped a playoff career-high 47 points.
Green was very confident when he was speaking to reporters after Game 3. He said the Warriors are going to win the next three games to capture their third straight title and fourth ring in five seasons. Green has never been one to mince words.
The Warriors need to play better defense in Game 4. They allowed the Raptors to control the tempo from start to finish in Game 3.
The Dubs also need their crowd to get into it a little bit more, as there were a lot of Raptors fans in Game 3 who made their voices be heard.
