9. Ignore the Outside Noise
It’s no secret the Warriors love to do a lot of talking, both on and off the court. They do have a lot of room to talk, as they’ve been the best team in the NBA for the last three seasons record-wise.
Green is one of the most versatile players in the league, and he definitely knows how to get under the skin of other players.
“He’s one of the best in the game at being a trash-talker,” Love said of Green on Wednesday. “I mean he’s a guy, like I mentioned, who sets the tone for them. For this NBA Finals, I think everybody expects that and hopes for that. It’s two of the best teams in the league going at it. It’s definitely fun to be a part of and it’s just part of the game.”
The Cavs need to be able to filter out that type of behavior and not let it distract them during this best-of-seven series. Take care of business now, repeat as champions, and save the talking for later.
