Draymond, Steph highlight Myers' unmatched value after win

Draymond Green’s fire fueled the Warriors to a wild win over the Pelicans. General manager Bob Myers played a major part in that, too.

Warriors general manager Bob Myers walked down the bench and made sure he had Green's attention. When the GM began speaking, Green was shaking his head side to side. Within seconds, Green was in agreement, now nodding up and down. He dapped up Myers, zipped up his warmup jacket and walked his way into the Warriors' huddle -- now clapping out of encouragement.

"It was huge," Green said of Myers' message. "He came down, he was like, 'Listen. All right, you proved your point and you may have been right, but if you stay that way, guys are going to follow you. If you turn around right now and get in the huddle, guys will follow that.'

"I got back in the huddle and challenged our guys and boosted the lead even more. Y'all don't always get to see Bob's work, other than putting the team together. But he's so important to everything that we do. I can't imagine -- and I know, I watch this league. GMs don't keep a pulse on the team like Bob keeps a pulse of this team. Maybe two other GMs in the league right there would come down to the bench and say something. And that's also someone who I have the utmost respect for.

The Kings are finally playoff bound! Congrats @Quid Pro Clowe

Jets are now at the top of the table you don't want to be on and the Sabres are likely to join them in a few days.

Who will break free first? I say the Jets but again it's the Jets.

The Mavericks debacle continues, another loss to fall to 37-42.

Who played/plays the best D? Barkley, 2016 Harden, Luka, KAT, or the current Kings?

Kevin Durant scores 35 back in his old stomping grounds of OKC. Suns are now 6-0 in games he's played with them.

Mavs are literally trying to throw the game and the Bulls suck so bad they don't even see it.
