"I thought it was fun to try. I was actually all for it": Draymond Green after the Celtics' thrashing of the Warriors

The Golden State Warriors veteran power forward Draymond Green has revealed that the side did not have a ‘forward defensive strategy’ in the match against the Boston Celtics. They tried to give Jaylen Brown space and close the zone, but it didn't work out.

The Warriors suffered a thumping defeat on Sunday with a score of 140-88 at the TD Garden in Boston.

After the match, Green, while talking to the media, stated that the strategy did not work but he was one of the players who was ‘up for it’ and that it was ‘fun’ to try.

“I don’t think we played forward defensive strategy,” he said. “We implemented our strategy [which was decided] before we left the locker room. So I don’t necessarily think we put the forward defensive strategy. [But our strategy] didn’t work.

“Oh well, we move on. It's ok. I thought it was fun to try. I was actually all for it. Let’s try to see if it works but it didn't [work]. So we move on.”

The outcome was a horrible one for the Warriors which left them reeling on the ninth position in the Western Conference with just 32 wins and 28 defeats this season.

The star performer for the winning team on the night was their shooting guard Jaylen Brown who ended up registering 29 points to go with three rebounds and three assists.
