The Toyota Center is somewhat of a special space for Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors. The Houston Rockets ' home arena served as the site of some of Golden State's greatest battles in its dynastic era, namely a pair of high-intensity playoff clashes in 2018 and 2019. Green, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson each touched on the memories spurred by returning to Houston following the Warriors' 121-108 win at the Toyota Center on Monday night, a sentiment echoed by coach Steve Kerr.
