Lakers vs. Warriors: Draymond Green stifled Anthony Davis in Game 2, but his scoring was equally important

Green's aggressiveness on both ends of the floor sparked Golden State's blowout win
SAN FRANCISCO -- When he was compared to all-time greats Elgin Baylor, Wilt Chamberlain and Shaquille O'Neal, his coach didn't bat an eye. His teammate, LeBron James, said that his No. 3 jersey would one day hang in the rafters of Crypto.com Arena -- or whatever it's called by that time. Talking-head shows spent 48 hours debating whether he was the best player in the series, ahead of Steph Curry.
It's safe to say that Draymond Green was sick of hearing about the great Anthony Davis.
After admitting that he "played like s---" in Game 1, when Davis put up a monster line of 30 points and 23 rebounds, Green made it his personal mission to make life miserable for Davis in Thursday night's Game 2, and was an instrumental factor in Golden State's near-perfect 127-100 victory to even the series.
