The Warriors are 9-25, but that won't stop Draymond Green from talking trash.
Green couldn't help but get in a spat with Dallas Mavericks big man Kristaps Porzingis on Saturday when the Dubs actually held a lead before losing by 20 points at Chase Center. Even an injured Klay Thompson got in on the action.

But Draymond didn't stop there. That's not his style.
Warriors guard D'Angelo Russell awkwardly ran into Mavs guard Luka Doncic with slightly over five minutes left in the third quarter. It was a scary scene in San Francisco as D-Lo remained on the ground for an extended period of time and a stretcher was rolled onto the court.
Russell eventually walked off the court on his own and came back into the game, ending the night with 35 points. Green obviously was happy to see Russell return to the floor, and somehow found a way to troll an old nemesis.
“Happy he didn’t leave on a stretcher and then come back in,” Green said to reporters after the game. “I would’ve lost all respect. We’ve had some guys do s--t like that in this league.”
He didn't say his name, but Green definitely was going after future Hall of Famer Paul Pierce.
Remember his feud with Pierce? Draymond certainly does. Here's a quick reminder.

Green on Saturday night was referring to when Pierce was taken off the floor in Game 1 of the 2008 NBA Finals on a wheelchair -- not a stretcher -- when Pierce's Boston Celtics were playing the Los Angeles Lakers. The reason, of course, was because Pierce badly had to go to the bathroom.
