Do things like what happened at Warriors practice happen more than we think

LA Lakers vs. Golden State Warriors. For someone who has been in and around the game for so long, it's shocking that Jeff Van Gundy made that comment. While it might not always be to the degree of what happened at the practice, it's fair to assume incidents like this do happen. The NBA has the highest level of competition in basketball, and consists of some of the world's top athletes. Given how driven and competitive all these guys are, it's likely that emotions sometimes get the best of people. One person who knows about scrums like this all too well is Golden State coach . Along with weathering the storm for his team now, he was part of arguably the most notable practice fight in NBA history. is one of the most competitive players to ever steep foot on an NBA court. Similar to Draymond Green, he lost his temper during a Chicago Bulls practice and got into a physical altercation with Kerr. The two were able to work through what happened and even gained a newfound respect for each other. If a successful dynasty like Jordan's Bulls could get through a rough patch like that, the Warriors should be able to overcome theirs too. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
