Watch: Draymond Green gets heated addressing Warriors reporter
Draymond Green keeps receipts.
After his Warriors registered an impressive road win over the Knicks Thursday night, Green was invited for an interview with NBC Sports Bay Area.
However, he didn't appear interested in speaking to Bonta Hall, the host of the postgame show. The interview began with Green calling out Hall for some of the comments he made during his indefinite suspension earlier in the season.
"Bonta, I’m shocked you’re talking to me," Green said. "The way you were talking about me when I got suspended, I’m very shocked you’re talking to me. Go ahead, though."
Evidently taken aback by Green's remark, Hill attempted to push on with the interview, asking Green about the experience of playing in Madison Square Garden.
However, Green responded with just, "It's always a fun game" and seemed uninterested in providing a thorough answer.
The awkward exchange made things so uncomfortable that Hill's co-hosts, former Warriors players Chris Mullin and Festus Ezeli, took over for him and interviewed Green.
The interview didn't end on a sound note, either, with Green removing his headset and storming off without passing on any pleasantries. The sequence prompted Hill to say, "He doesn't like me right now."
Hill's critique of Green can be traced back to December when he questioned the Warriors forward's commitment to the team on his radio show, "The Morning Roast," on 95.7 The Game.
At the time, Green was criticized across the media for striking Suns center Jusuf Nurkic on Dec. 12.
"I don't know if he's going to change," Hill said of Green. "Our culture is fractured right now because of this guy. I think of the young guys... how are they supposed to follow him as a leader?"
While Hill and others were justified in questioning Green's antics last December, it's undeniable that the Warriors are a better basketball team with Green on the court.
The proof is in the pudding — the Dubs are 13-6 since Green returned from his suspension on Jan. 15. Furthermore, he leads all Warriors in plus/minus during that time frame.
