Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green had some harsh words about Houston Rockets wing Dillon Brooks after the first round of the NBA playoffs.
During a recent episode of his podcast, the Golden State veteran called out Brooks for not shaking hands with the Warriors after the Rockets were eliminated in the opening series of the postseason. Brooks received some criticism (but justified it) for trying to attack Stephen Curry’s injured thumb while on the court.
Green and Brooks were seen jawing at each other between free throws with a heated exchange during Game 4.
Draymond just went OFF on Dillon Brooks for not shaking any Warriors players’ hands after being eliminated 😳
“You a sucka… nobody on the court respects you”

Here is just a sample platter including some of what Green said about Brooks:
“Dillon Brooks ran off the court. So when I say you see what guys is made of, he ran off the court like ain’t shake nobody up. You admitted you was trying to hurt Steph’s hand, which, again, fine by me bro. You understand what I’m saying? So if you gonna be on that type of time, wear shades in the press conference, you gonna be talking, you gonna be mister big bad wolf, don’t lose and then not face the music. Don’t be that guy. Because, again, you lose a lot of respect for guys in that moment. But that’s who Dillon Brooks is. You know what I’m saying? We understand: You a sucka, man. Don’t be like that. Because you lose respect. When guys lose respect for you in this league, like, it don’t matter and it’s going to catch you in the end. Like, Dillon Brooks couldn’t come through in the series in large part because nobody on the court respects you.”
Green and Brooks are two of the most passionate players in the NBA, but it’s Green’s Warriors who advanced to the semifinals of the Western Conference while the Rockets will begin their offseason.
