Overall, the Warriors were called for 150 fouls and the Rockets for 124. Nevertheless, Buddy Hield's performance in Game 7 sent the Warriors to the semifinals and left the Rockets watching the remainder of the playoffs at home. Warriors forward Draymond Green didn't mince words when he replied to Şengün's remarks.

That’s a tough thing to say after you lose,” Draymond Green said after Sengun’s interview. “You have to win to (say) stuff like that. Hold that L.”

In a recent episode of his Wy Network podcast, Dwyane Wade explained why Green’s greatness can’t be simplified to his individual efforts. While his status as an all-time great defender and Hall of Famer is undeniable, Wade explained that Green’s contributions to his team’s success are as valuable as anyone’s.
