After Game 2, head coach Steve Kerr spoke to reporters and addressed Green's situation. He made clear that he expects the 35-year-old will stay coolheaded and avoid putting any unnecessary strain on Golden State's title chances.

There was no magic from the rest of the squad, either, and Draymond Green even got an early technical. The veteran forward and elite defender needed to quarterback the team in Curry's absence, and, instead, he earned a technical and is now two technical fouls away from landing a suspension.
