While he hasn’t been suiting up inside the Orlando Bubble, Draymond Green has been paying attention to the NBA’s postseason action at Disney World. As the Golden State Warriors dive into their extended offseason, Green has stepped in front of the camera to serve as an analyst on the NBA on TNT and “The Arena.”
Although he wasn’t on set with Ernie Johnson, Kenny “The Jet” Smith, Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley, the three-time All-Star provided some analysis during game two of the Eastern Conference Finals.
After the Miami Heat stormed back from a 17 point deficit in the third quarter against the Boston Celtics, Green chimed in with a suggestion on Twitter. The former Defensive Player of the Year advocated for Brad Stevens to use Grant Williams at the center and match up Jaylen Brown with Miami’s Tyler Herro.
Via @Money23Green on Twitter:
Boston need to go with Grant Williams at the 5. Put JB on Herro. Switch the pick and roll, that will take away the Bam dive.

After they outscored the Celtics 37-17 in the third quarter, the Heat were able to close out game two, 106-101. Behind 25 points on 10-of-19 shooting from Goran Dragic and Bam Adebayo’s double-double, Miami moved to a 2-0 series lead over Boston.
During the Heat’s game two victory, Green’s former teammate Andre Iguodala went scoreless, logging only one assist in seven minutes.
The Heat will be back on the floor with a chance to take a commanding 3-0 lead over the Celtics on Saturday at 5:30 P.M. PT.
