The Minnesota Timberwolves are supposed to have the best anti-Nikola Jokic weapon in the form of Rudy Gobert, who is the reigning Defensive Player of the Year — an award he has actually won a total of four times. Call it a matchup between an unstoppable force and an immovable object, but for Golden State Warriors star forward Draymond Green, that individual head-to-head in the Timberwolves-Nuggets series is a one-sided affair with Jokic clearly winning. After the first half of Tuesday night's Minnesota-Denver Game 5, Jokic had himself an already fantastic output of 19 points on 7/10 shooting from the floor.
Knicks superfan Tracy Morgan had a message for Draymond Green before Game 5 of New York's second-round series against the Pacers. And Morgan isn't taking any “crap” from Knicks haters. The comedian was given the mic during “Inside the NBA” by TNT's Chris Haynes made sure to let Green know that he didn't appreciate the comments that the Warriors' forward previously made about the Knicks during the team's playoff run. . @TracyMorgan had to let Draymond know not to talk crazy about his Knicks 😂🤣 pic.twitter.com/vWJLkoBX7C — NBA on TNT (@NBAonTNT) May 14, 2024 “Let me tell you something, Draymond, I love you like kung fu. I love you like the fat kid loves cake,” Morgan said directly into the courtside
The rivalry between Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors and Jusuf Nurkić of the Phoenix Suns is far from over. On Monday night on Inside The NBA, Green made a comment that may be seen as some slight shade towards Nurkić, saying the Suns "have no big man." Nurkić responded on social media on Tuesday and clowned Draymond. Nurk says Draymond "Still" needs some help and that Kevin Durant doesn't like Green.
