Celtics vs. Mavs NBA Finals: Dallas 'Found Something,' Says Ex Coach to Draymond - Warriors Tracker
JUNE 17 MAVS CHANCE? The "Draymond Green Show'' is making news ... as the Dallas Mavs try to make history.
"I do think Dallas found some things that they might be able to take to the Garden,” said Lakers ex Derek Fisher on Green's show, reflecting on Game 4 of the NBA Finals.

SFGate's Gabe Lehman is first to report that Thompson has unfollowed the Warriors on social media while also deleting all Warriors-related content from his accounts.
To the uninitiated - or maybe anybody over the age of 30 - the "drastic'' action seems sort of childish. But seriously, this is the way it works, and is maybe a statement from Thompson.
The last offer we know of from the team was a year ago, and it was a low-ball try as Thompson turned down the Warriors' reported attempt to sign him to a two-year, $48 million deal.
