Kevin Durant And Draymond Green Meme

People can often become a little more animated when in high-stakes situations, like the NBA Playoffs. 

During the kick-off game between the Golden State Warriors and Portland Trail Blazers, Draymond Green and Kevin Durant had a moment that has now gone viral. 

In a moment during Sunday’s game, Green gives Durant a passionate pep talk as Durant nods along. Fans noticed and now the pep talk has become the internet’s latest meme.

From pastors giving the good word to being drunk, the moment has been used to describe every single thing you can think of and then some.

Green has been caught giving passionate speeches to Durant before. Back in January, Green was seen yelling at Durant after losing to the Memphis Grizzles. Durant said, “It wasn’t an argument at all. I feel like Draymond was emotional and something was bothering him so he came and talked to me.”

Hopefully, the two have many more meme-worthy moments.
