In a surprisingly tight Olympic match-up, the U.S. men’s basketball team needed a clutch Kyrie Irving 3-pointer to earn a win over Australia on Wednesday.

Irving’s game-sealing shot immediately drew comparisons to the one he hit not too long ago in Game 7 of the NBA Finals to secure the Cleveland Cavaliers’ first NBA championship over the Golden State Warriors.

Apparently, for Irving’s Team USA teammate and Warrior Draymond Green, the shots were too close for comfort.

While praising Irving on his Snapchat, Green admitted that the point guard’s performance immediately brought back bad memories.
