Leave it to the internet to find a meme-worthy NBA playoff moment in only day three of the games. In game one of the Portland Trail Blazers against the Golden State Warriors, the cameras spotted Kevin Durant and Draymond Green talking pretty intensely. It looked like Green was encouraging Durant, which might've helped, considering the Warriors won 121 to 109. But, of course, the internet took the moment and turned it into a meme.
Here's a GIF of the moment.

People instantly compared it to when a friend tries to convince you to do anything.

Others thought it was a great GIF to describe what happens at the club and bar.

We don't know what Green said to Durant, but we're grateful they gave us this moment.
