Draymond Green took issue prior to Monday’s Golden State Warriors celebratory parade that no players would be talking.
Well, guys got their chance and the controversial power forward made the most of his chance.
The Warriors celebrated their NBA Finals championship Monday with fans and Green, once again, stole the show.
“I’m trying to think of the most controversial thing I could say,” Green said, per SF Gate. “I don’t know what you want me to tell you. That we’re better than everybody? … I’m just gonna continue to destroy people on Twitter and Instagram stories.
“It’s always (expletive) everybody else. Thank you all!”
And just to make sure he knows where he stands on the Celtics, check out the shirt he was rolling with during the parade.
1. Klay responds to Draymond
Marc Spears of ESPN reports, Klay Thompson didn’t let Green’s comment slide without a joke of his own.
“Real mature, Draymond,” he said. “This guy has the maturity of a third grader.”
2. Steve Kerr jokes about being hungover
There were plenty of highlights from the festivities, including coach Steve Kerr joking about getting over his hangover from the celebration after the Game 6 win over Boston. He points to his age as the main reason for his lack of bouncing back as efficiently as his team.
3. Klay on the ‘little wins’
Thompson had a bizarre answer explaining the “little wins” that made winning the NBA title so special. The answer had Curry practically falling out of his chair. “Whether it is taking a picture with an old lady or with a small kid,” he tried to explain.
4. Poole party in full force
Jordan Poole came ready for his “Poole Party,” armed with his own super soaker water gun.
5. Klay mocks Curry crying
As is the case after a championship, there is always a chance for tears to flow. That was the case when the Warriors beat the Celtics in Game 6. Curry had wet eyes, and Thompson didn’t let the chance to make fun of his teammate slide.
6. Kerry impersonates Curry
During one of the many tears, Kerr looked at the Boston crowd and gave the look of going to sleep, as in it is over. Kerr did his best Curry imitation of the moment.
