Draymond Green Stares Down Clippers Player After Getting Bumped During Interview
Dahntay Jones, take notes. Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green doesn't take kindly to an opponent bumping into him while he's doing an interview.
Green put up 23 points, six assists and three rebounds in the Warriors' 106-98 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday. After the game, he took some time to talk to an ESPN sideline reporter.
That's when Jones, a Clipper, caught Green by surprise with a shoulder from behind. It was clear that Green didn't appreciate the bump, considering he stared down Jones for the next few seconds.

I thought that guy was tough,” Green stated on KNBR Radio, "Cool story, Glenn. I'm done with that situation, man ... I don't have no reason to worry about what Glenn has to say."
