The Golden State Warriors have a chance to close out the Dallas Mavericks and finish the Western Conference Finals with a sweep in Game 4, but Draymond Green knows very well it won't be easy.
Green has been into plenty of postseason games to know what to expect in Game 4 against the Mavs. With Golden State leading 3-0, Dallas has nothing to lose anymore and could go all-out in a bid to live another day. Dray is well aware how dangerous a playoff team is when their backs are pushed against the wall, and he expects nothing less from Luka Doncic and Co.
“No one ever quits in the conference finals… Being one win away from the Finals means absolutely nothing,” Green said ahead f Tuesday's Game 4, per Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.
Draymond Green certainly couldn't have said it any better. No lead is safe in the NBA, and no series is over until a team has won four games and it's officially done.
The Mavs might be on the verge of succumbing to a sweep, but the Warriors cannot forget that it is the same team that bounced back from a 2-0 deficit against the top-seeded Phoenix Suns in the second round.
Furthermore, the Warriors themselves have experienced a massive collapse. Green, Stephen Curry and the Dubs will never forget the Cleveland Cavaliers' 3-1 comeback in the 2016 NBA Finals, and so they won't and shouldn't be complacent despite their huge lead this time around.
