Draymond Green was just one assist away from notching his second consecutive triple-double of the championship series.Injuries to Klay Thompson and Kevon Looney could make ball movement like this even more important for Golden State. DeMarcus Cousins can be a positiveEntering the series, there were doubts Cousins could help the Warriors trend in the right direction.The four-time All-Star hadn't played since tearing his quad in the first round of the playoffs as the NBA Finals approached. He logged just eight minutes in Game 1 and only managed to score three points.However, Cousins unexpectedly tallied 11 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in 28 minutes in Game 2. This is likely because of the injury to Looney, and he made the most of his opportunity. Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, DeMarcus Cousins, and Andre Iguodala became the first quartet of teammates with at least 5 PTS, 5 REB and 5 AST in a #NBAFinals game since New York's Willis Reed, Walt Frazier, Dave DeBusschere and Dick Barnett in 1970. @EliasSports pic.twitter.com/UygyTtD2dW— NBA.com/Stats (@nbastats) June 3, 2019 While he struggled with foul trouble early, he proved he can take on a heavier workload moving forward and not be too much of a defensive liability.
