Draymond Green speaks out on the notorious Steve Kerr spat

Draymond Green has said that he and his former coach Steve Kerr wanted to "kill" each other during their memorable spat while playing for the Golden State Warriors. Green made news in 2016, during his fourth year in the NBA, when he got into an incident with head coach Kerr during halftime of the Western Conference Finals against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Draymond Green allegedly yelled at Kerr after being chastised for his shot selection; things escalated when he responded, "Motherf***er, come sit me down!". The verbal fight proceeded behind closed doors into the locker room, and Green has now provided his account of what occurred during the heated event.

The Warriors star posted another episode of his self-titled program on YouTube, this time with teammate and center Kevon Looney accompanying him. During the conversation, Green said that Looney, who was selected in 2015 and "hadn't said a word all year," was hysterically giggling when he and Kerr were arguing.

According to Macra, "Obviously, none of you were there for that moment, but in this moment, Steve wanted to kill me, and then he realized I wanted to kill him," Green said during the discussion.

Draymond Green went on to apologize

Despite the intensity of the altercation, which prompted Oklahoma Police to intervene, they were able to laugh about it. In one paragraph, they described how shooting guard Klay Thompson tried to break up the argument by saying, "We're a team, you guys" and "DRAY!" Shut up, guy! "He's the coach, man."

While Green went on to apologize for his role in what transpired, he stated that he expected to be transferred by Steve Kerr following their disagreement. Green left the arena after the game, assuming that the Warriors management would have to pick between them.

And, although serving for a longer length of time than Kerr, Green believed the coach would be seen as more important after leading the team to their first NBA championship since 1975. When asked if he expected he'd be moved, Green said, "100%." Especially given his success as a coach. "You just don't get rid of that."
