Kobe Bryant warns Warriors not to get comfortable

Morethan perhaps any player this side of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant is all busine s on the court.So after a over the the Warriors on Sunday,the Lakers guard made sure the NBA's current superteam understood the task at hand andinstructed Warriors forward Draymond Green to make sure he keeps his teammates focused in their attempt to win back-to-back titles.MORE: |"He's the Josh Naylor Jersey one that has to keep his finger on the nerve with this team, because it can get lax, it can get comfortable,", "and I think he's the one that's going to have to create that conflict, that tension in the locker room, because if they don't have that, then in the playoffs, then they are going to be in trouble.He's got to give them that conflict."It was just the Warriors'sixth lo s, four of which have come to teams that are not currently in the playoff picture. Green said Carlos Asuaje Jersey he took Bryant's words to heart, calling him "one of the best to ever do it.""That's a guy who's been there, done that, he's won back-to-back championships, like we're trying to do, so he knows what it takes, he knows what you have to do," Green said. "You just take the advice. You know you have to bring some leadership to the table and you just remember what Edward Olivares Jersey he told you. I'm not sure how you do it, but try to find a way."Bryant won three consecutive championshipsfrom 2000 to 2002and helped the Lakersgobacktoback againin 2009 and 2010, so it's probably not a bad idea for Green to take his words to heart.Stud of the nightJames Harden put the Rockets on his back yet again, helping his team upset the Raptors 113-107.
