Draymond Green growing into role as Warriors’ vocal leader

Anybody watching the Golden State Warriors during the playoffs will see - and certainly hear - Draymond Green getting into it with opponents, teammates and even his own coaches. In Game 2 against the New Orleans Pelicans, Green got a lot of attention from fans in the arena and on social media for barking back at Warriors coach Steve Kerr after being taken out with 3:55 remaining in the first quarter. It's healthy, but it's fun.'' Sweet-shooting guards Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson have soaked up most of the attention this season after powering the Warriors to the NBA's best record. The versatile forward is the vocal leader of the NBA's No. 1 defense, and the way he shut down Davis in the fourth quarter Monday night put the Warriors up 2-0 in the first-round playoff series.
