After a thrilling victory over the Dallas Mavericks, the Warriors are riding a five-game winning streak into Houston. Draymond Green has stated that the team is prepared to take the court against the Rockets on Thursday.
A recent episode of “The Draymond Green Show” gave Green the ideal opportunity to mock the injured Rockets forward Tari Eason for calling out the Warriors in a widely shared video last week. Green said,
“Really big-time win for us especially with the Rockets coming out to play,”
“They have lost a couple in a row. You’re three games behind with seven games left and you’re losing the tiebreaker, so four games behind in a sense, with seven to go. “If my math serves me correctly, tomorrow will be an opportunity to end their season — their playoff hopes.”
“[The Rockets] have lost a couple in a row… Tomorrow will be an opportunity to end their season, their playoff hopes.”

Last week, the Rockets (38-37) were in a very different situation. The Warriors, who owned the No. 10 seed and final play-in berth in the Western Conference, were one game ahead of the hottest team in the NBA.
Eason mockingly threatened Golden State’s standing in the West.
