Draymond Green: Cleveland Cavaliers still "pretty good" without Kyrie Irving

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green insists that the Cleveland Cavaliers still have a "pretty good" team without the injured Kyrie Irving.

Draymond Green has insisted that the Golden State Warriors will still be facing a "pretty good" Cleveland Cavaliers side when they meet for game two of the NBA Finals.

The Western Conference champions won the first meeting between the two sides in overtime, and know that they will not be facing All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving again as he has been ruled out with a fractured kneecap.

Green told reporters: "They're still a great ballclub. You know, they have a lineup that's pretty good even without Kyrie. So they'll still come out and play.

"We'll see a lot more [Matthew] Dellavedova and probably Mike [Miller] and some other guys. But they're going to come out and compete the same way they always compete, and we have to make sure we come out with an even better focus level than we did in game one."

Irving had been struggling with knee tendinitis in recent weeks, but a collision with Warriors guard Klay Thompson is believed to have caused the fracture.
