The Golden State Warriors ran away from the Dallas Mavericks in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Wednesday night, winning at home 112-87 in a game that never even felt that close.
While Steph Curry led all scores with 21 points, Draymond Green had a solid game for the Warriors by doing all of the little things that he has been so good at doing over the years. He finished with 10 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal.
Green’s most memorable moment came in the first half when he flexed his muscles while sitting on the court after getting fouled while making a layup.
Check out the play:

While it looked like he was really flexing at Maxi Kleber, the guy who fouled him, that photo had NBA fans going nuts. And rightfully so, it’s a great photo.
