The Warriors and Lakers' Western Conference semifinal series has been intense as expected thus far, with the teams splitting the first two games in San Francisco.

However, Golden State forward Draymond Green inadvertently provided a moment of levity Thursday night as the series prepares to shift to Los Angeles for Game 3.

Green, talking to reporters after Game 2 with his son and daughter in tow, said that he had prepared for the Warriors' victory with his family around.

"Last night I was in the gym. He was here with me," Green said, tapping his son DJ on the head. "They love that. So I think it's..."

DJ promptly cut his father off, exclaiming "No I wasn't!"

Green smiled as reporters chuckled, and he continued, "It just pushes you way harder knowing they're watching every single thing you do."

Whether or not his family was involved, Green was masterful in Game 2. He fell an assist shy of a triple-double as Golden State blasted Los Angeles 127-100 to tie the series.
