They were recently involved in a war of words regarding a possible Christmas Day match-up between the Golden State Warriors and Memphis Grizzlies. Usually teams travel to the home of the defending champions on Christmas Day. Morant, however, suggested that the Warriors come to Memphis, breaking the age-long tradition. Draymond Green did not take kindly to Morant's comments and hit back saying: “F**k no, nobody’s coming to Memphis … The champs don’t trail for Christmas …They can have dinner with me and my family after we beat 'em on Christmas Day.” nah in da M. bring em to da trenches A Grizzlies-Warriors Christmas game in San Francisco is all but guaranteed at this point.A Grizzlies-Warriors Christmas game in San Francisco is all but guaranteed at this point.nah in da M. bring em to da trenches But Draymond Green was quick to point out that despite the rivalry between the Warriors and the Grizzlies, he still has respect for Morant. “I love Ja.

Now talking sh*t to the team that won the championship after they beat you is an entirely different level of oblivion - Draymond Green

The four-time NBA champion has the credentials to back up his trash talk. Green has been an integral part of the Warriors side that has won four titles in eight years. Morant, on the other hand, is still a raw talent yet to taste success in the postseason. As such, he does not necessarily have the resume to back up some of his claims. According to Green, Morant's comments have essentially put a big target on Memphis’ back. “Now talking shit to the team that won the championship after they beat you, after they win a championship, is an entirely different level of oblivion," he said."It doesn’t get much more oblivious than that, and I think for them you’re now going to be expected to do that. You’re now gonna be expected to win these games.” Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
