"Anyone who watched the first half would feel that there was no vibe and no rhythm of the game," Green further added. He said that the music adds the rhythm to the game, and it helps the players to move into a certain area. "It could be to throw the team off the game, but Knicks threw the game completely out of it. They wanted to trash it, and that is what they did on the court," Green said.

Even Warriors coach, Steve Kerr was not happy with the way things went on Sunday. "It is weird. It looked like inside a church, and did they think that it is a Sunday?" he asked. Even other players raised a protest against the experience. Stephen Curry said that it was a bizarre Sunday and players started making beat sounds to maintain a rhythm and musical presence. Interestingly, the big man of Knicks, Kristaps Porzingis, also shown a similar voice as he described that it was "weird" as there was no music in the first half.
