OAKLAND – We really wish they were mic’d up for this one.
The atmosphere at Oracle Arena was arguably the most charged up it’s been all season in the first half Tuesday night, when Stephen Curry made his postseason return in Game 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals.
Things hit a fever pitch as the halftime buzzer sounded, when Klay Thompson banked in a 3-pointer, giving the dubs a three point lead. Shortly after, cameras caught Draymond Green in a heated exchange with Rajon Rondo, with the two jawing face-to-face for 10 seconds before being separated.
A few minutes prior, Green went face-to-face with Pelicans forward Nikola Mirotic, after a ferocious dunk.

This is the second interesting exchange between Green and Rondo this series, the first coming in Game 1, when the veteran point guard tried to give Draymond a high-five after he missed a free throw.
