On Bleacher Report’s Chips, three-time NBA champ Draymond Green chops it up with some of the biggest stars in the league to discuss whatever chip they have on their shoulder. In the latest episode, Dray was joined by former teammate Kevin Durant for what’s easily one of the juiciest interviews of the year.
As hoop heads already know, Durant and Green eventually split ways after they engaged in a heated argument on the sidelines of a Los Angeles Clippers game in November 2018. During this fiery exchange that fractured the team, Dray dismissed Durant’s importance to the franchise (since Golden State had already won a championship in 2015 without him) and called him a “bitch” way too many times to count.
Nearly a year later, after moving on to the Brooklyn Nets, Durant admitted that his spat with Green “definitely” played a role in his decision to move on from the Warriors.
“For sure,” he admitted on ESPN’s First Take in October 2019. “I’m not gonna lie about it.”
