Draymond Green knows a thing or two about blowing a 3-1 series lead.
The Golden State Warriors All-Star forward, of course, was a member of last season’s NBA Western Conference champions who lost to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the NBA Finals after holding a 3-1 lead of their own.
The NBA suspended Green for Game 5 of that series, allowing the Cavaliers to sneak back into contention and shift momentum all too quickly before anyone in Golden State could do anything about it.
Clearly, those wounds aren’t quite healed, and though Wednesday night it was a team from Cleveland blowing that lead, it still was bittersweet to watch.
Green wasn’t the only person feeling some type of way after the Cubs’ win. Former Warriors assistant and current Lakers head coach Luke Walton couldn’t resist a quick jab himself.
Sorry, Indians fans. Maybe next year.
