Heading into Friday’s Game 6 matchup against the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals, many around the NBA considered the series over, including Golden State Warriors’ All-Star forward Draymond Green.

Green was confident the Celtics would take care of business at home and head to the franchise's first NBA Finals appearance since 2010.

Green, whose Warriors are awaiting the winner of the Eastern Conference finals, felt the series was over, confidently telling "Inside the NBA" after the Warriors’ Game 5 victory over the Dallas Mavericks that Golden State would be facing Boston in the NBA Finals.
