It's noteworthy to remember that the two teams were neck-to-neck in last year's playoffs before the Warriors pulled away after a Ja Morant injury. On his podcast Point Forward, the 2015 Finals MVP said that he believes Golden State Warriors will host the Memphis Grizzlies on Christmas. Iguodala also spoke about how he would like to see a rematch of the NBA Finals on MLK [Martin Luther King Jr.] Day. He stated: "I know it's going to be Memphis vs. The Warriors. You always got those battles. Usually you see the finals matchup on Christmas but I don't think they should waste it. They should do it on MLK Day, Warriors vs. Celtics. And the Celtics gotta come see the Warriors. The Warriors and Memphis got to pop off for Christmas." The reason why people are interested in seeing the Grizzlies against the Warriors on Christmas instead of a rematch of the NBA Finals is because of the bad blood between the two franchises.

Morant responded to this by tweeting how the Grizzlies seem to be living in the minds of the Warriors players. The likes of Draymond Green and Steph Curry also got involved as players from the two rosters went back-and-forth on Twitter, exchanging insults. The war of words concluded with Green and Morant agreeing to a matchup on Christmas Day.
