Ontheair theYear.Theversatilefor- ward is the vocal leader of the NBA's No. 1 defense, and the way he shut down Davis in the fourth quar- ter Monday night put the Warriors up 2-0 in the first- round playoff series. Green is averaging 14.5 points, 12 rebounds and six assistsinthefirsttwogames of the series, which resumes Thursday night in New Or- leans. But his contributions go beyond the box score. "He just always finds a way to be in the mix. There is no teaching that," Curry said. Green's game is gener- ated by the same method that helped him win two state titles at Saginaw High School in Michigan, reach two Final Fours at Michi- gan State and take home Big Ten Player of the Year honors as a senior. He just outworks peo- ple — and lets them hear about it. "That's kind of how I am. It could be in practice. And if I'm like really going, I'll just start talking junk to anybody," Green said. "And all I need to do is get one. If I get one person to respond to me, I'll get going quick. And I'll start talking to ev- erybody. "I'll start talking to the team. If I'm on blue, I'll start talking to white. If they don't respond, I'll start talking junk to blue — the same team. If they don't respond, I'll talk to coaches and video guys, whoever. All I need is one person. It gets me going. I don't know what it is." Green had a close rela- tionship with former War- riors coach Mark Jackson in his first two seasons. Jackson, an ordained min- ister who never cussed, had a more laidback approach with players. Green credits Kerr's fi- ery attitude for bringing out the best in him, com- paring the bond to the one he built with Tom Izzo at Michigan State. He pin- points an exchange during a home game earlier this season as a turning point in the relationship. "He said something to me on the court, and I started yelling back," Green said. "I'm like, 'Whoa.' He said something else, and I caught myself the first time, and I start yelling back again. So now I walk to the bench and I'm like, 'My bad.' And he's like, 'No, I love that fire.' And then I started to notice he would do stuff to get me amped up. I'm like, 'OK, kind of treading down that Tom Izzo road again.'" Sometimes Green's emo- tions can be misinter- preted. During pre-draft inter- views, he said he was asked about TV cameras catch- ing him yelling at Izzo on the sidelines. Green said that's just how they com- municated. The same goes for team- mates. Warriors center An- drew Bogut said he learned early on not to get Green talking in practice but to feed off the energy he brings in games. "He hustles. He's a dog," Bogut said. In his first two years, Green provided key min- utes off the bench, but mostly as a situational de- fender. It wasn't until two- time All-Star power for- ward David Lee missed 24 of the first 25 games at the start of the season with a strained left hamstring that Green got a chance to win the starting job. "I thought Draymond would start to emerge," Kerr said. "But I had no idea he was this good." Green FROM PAGE 1 in Weeks 11-13. Since the 1970 merger, 10 franchises have had mul- tiple three-game homes- tands in a season, most re- cently the 2008 Chicago Bears. This will be the first time the Ravens or Lions have done it, according to STATS. • According to STATS, the last team with a four- game homestand was the 2008 Houston Texans. The last team not to leave home for five straight weeks was the 1993 Buf- falo Bills. They had a bye in Week 3, a three-game homestand between Weeks 4-6, and then an- other bye in Week 7. • In all, 10 teams have three-game homestands. Four have the dreaded three-game road trips: At- lanta (Weeks 14-16); Buf- falo (10-12); Miami (8-10); and Jacksonville (3-5). Among the most antic- ipated games is the first visit to MetLife Stadium by new Bills coach Rex Ryan to face his former club, the Jets. That oc- curs on Thursday night, Nov. 12. Schedule FROM PAGE 1 ips Arena. "But in a perfect world, I'd be somewhere else." A longtime assistant un- der Popovich at San Anto- nio, Budenholzer won the Red Auerbach Trophy for guiding the Hawks to a 60- 22 mark during the regu- lar season, the best in fran- chise history. "He's a wonderful per- son, a heck of a coach," Popovich said in Los An- geles, where the Spurs are playing the Clippers. "It's great that people noticed and understood what a good job he did. I'm sure he doesn't even know which way to turn, but he's a happy camper, for sure." The Hawks had a 19- game winning streak, be- came the first NBA team to go 17-0 during a calen- dar month, and cruised to their first division title since 1994, which also was the last time they held a No. 1 seed. "He deserves it," said Jeff Teague, the Hawks' All-Star point guard. "He's made me a better player. He's made our team bet- ter." Budenholzer received 67 first-place votes and 513 points overall in ballot- ing by sports writers and broadcasters. Kerr received 56 first-place votes and 471 points. Milwaukee's Jason Kidd was a distant third. "I'm actually really glad Mike won," Kerr said. "I just got into this gig. It would've felt really weird to win that award when this team has had so much success and was already re- ally good last year before I got here." Indeed, while the War- riors put together one of the great seasons in NBA history, they did go 51-31 under former coach Mark Jackson. Atlanta went 38- 44 during Budenholzer's injury plagued debut sea- son with the Hawks, a re- sult that was not unex- pected given the team's al- most total makeover the last couple of years. "Mike has transformed that team," Kerr said. The Hawks' turnaround is even more impressive given their troubled offsea- son. Emails emerged show- ing owner Bruce Leven- son made racially charged comments about the fan base, prompting him to put the team up for sale. Not long after, it was revealed that Ferry — the team's general manager, architect of the roster overhaul, and the one who hired Buden- holzer — made racially in- sensitive comments dur- ing a conference call to discuss the potential sign- ing of free agent Luol Deng. Ferry was forced to take an indefinite leave that lasted all season. The 45-year-old Buden- holzer, with help from as- sistant GM Wes Wilcox, took control of player per- sonnel matters as well as his coaching duties. He molded a tight-knit unit that has been willing to sacrifice individual stats for the good of the team. After a sluggish start, the Hawks finished seven games ahead of the over- whelming East favorites, LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. At- lanta had six players aver- age in double figures, with the five starters finish- ing between 12.1 and 16.7 points a game. In January, all five start- ers were honored as NBA players of the month, the first time the league has given the award to an en- tire unit. "It's been a tough year," said Budenholzer, the first coach of the year from At- lanta since Lenny Wilkens in 1994. "But hopefully ev- erybody has handled it to the best of all of our abil- ities." Budenholzer teared up as he talked about his fa- ther, a retired high school coach who "gave me my love for the game." He also got emotional when thank- ing Ferry, whose future with the team will appar- ently remain in limbo until new ownership takes over. "I would not be here to- day without Danny Ferry's faith in me," said Buden- holzer, whose team leads Brooklyn in the opening round of the playoffs head- ing into Game 2 Wednes- day night. In a fitting touch, the Hawks arranged for Popo- vich, whose defending NBA champions are in Los An- geles to play the Clippers in the Western Conference playoffs, to make the call to Budenholzer telling him he was coach of the year. It was Popovich who gave Budenholzer his start in coaching as a lowly film coordinator.
