In the previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals G1, the Golden State Warriors, ranked 7th in the Western Conference in the regular season, defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves, ranked 6th in the Western Conference in the regular season, successfully completed the following draw. After this game, the Warriors also widened the total score of the series to 1-0 and regained the home advantage.

In this game, the Warriors' starting lineup dream-Draymond Green's performance is impressive. Green played 34 minutes and 33 seconds in the game, made 6 of 13 shots, 4 of 10 from outside the three-point line, and 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 18 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 steals. He also had 4 turnovers and 5 fouls, and the plus and negative value also reached +11. Green also showed quite good shooting ability on the offensive end. He also seized the opportunity and got a lot of points, providing a lot of support to the team on the offensive end. Green's performance in passing and supporting is also remarkable. His performance on the offensive end is simply versatile, far exceeding everyone's expectations. Green also maintained a high level on the defensive end. He also defended the team's inside line, and his defensive ability is worthy of recognition. Green's overall performance is quite good, and he is also an important factor in the team being able to win a key victory in this game.

In the NBA regular season this season, Green played a total of 68 games in 82 games, averaging 29.2 minutes per game, averaging 9 points, 6.1 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.5 steals and 1 block, and 2.6 turnovers and 3.2 fouls, shooting percentage of 42.4%, three-point shooting percentage of 32.5%, and free throw shooting percentage of 68.7%. In the playoffs, Green averaged 32.6 minutes in the first eight games, with averaging 9.3 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.3 blocks, and 3.6 turnovers and 3.6 fouls. He shot 40.6%, three-point shooting percentage 29.3%, and free throw shooting percentage 66.7%.

Green felt a mess in the first few games against the Houston Rockets in the first round of the series. He did have a good effect on the defensive end and showed his due defensive contribution, but his offensive efficiency was also bad enough. His passing ability and organizational ability were not displayed. He also significantly dragged down the team's overall performance on the offensive end. Unexpectedly, in the G7 of the series, Green showed his comprehensive personal ability by both offense and defense. He also made great contributions to the team's promotion to the second round, and he also maintained his outstanding form until this game. If Green can play a role in the offensive end, can the team's competitiveness have more room to improve?
