Draymond Green slams Knicks for not standing up for Jalen Brunson after Wemby push

The Knicks didn’t do enough to protect Jalen Brunson in Draymond Green’s eyes.Brunson was shoved in the neck by Spurs star Victor Wembanyama in the first quarter of Game 3 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday night.According to Green, the reaction by the rest of the Knicks was less than ideal.“He pushed him down, and none of the guys on the Knicks team did anything,” Green said on “The Kevin O’Connell Show.” “Don’t not for one second think that didn’t matter.Oh, that mattered.”O’Connell then asked what Green would have done in that situation. “I’m probably gonna get thrown out right there, and it may cost us Game 3,” Green said.
Green is known for his controversial style that has made one of the NBA’s biggest villains with the Warriors.But the edge he brings to the team has played a significant role in the team’s recent dynasty led by Steph Curry.Jay Williams on ESPN also agrees that the Knicks’ response was not strong enough and expects that to change during Game 4 on Wednesday night. “There is a certain aspect of your team when our star player gets mushed like that and gets sonned like that.
You have to respond, and you are going to respond with physicality,” Williams said.“It can’t just come from [Jose] Alvarado; it has to come from Karl-Anthony Towns, OG [Anunoby], it has to come from everybody.
Look for multiple shots to be delivered to Wemby (Wednesday night) in Game 4.” Own this piece of history with our cover celebrating the Knicks’ sweep over the Cavs.If you’re a Knicks fan and a Post fan, get in the game with this jersey inspired by our May 20, 2026 cover.
