Draymond Green Explains The DeAndre Jordan Fouling Incident

There was obviously a reaction to me jumping on DeAndre Jordan's back. Steve and I was talking about the foul. We were gonna take a foul, you know, the hacker shot. Steve like, "Yo, let's take a foul. You got zero fouls, so you could take the foul." I'm like, "All right, bet, perfect." Told the referees like, "Yo, I'm gonna take this foul." The reason I jumped on his back is because DeAndre is 7 feet, I'm 6'6". If I just kind of bump into him, they're not gonna call a foul. They're just not gonna do it on the free throw box out. So the foul has to be a little egregious for them to call a foul right away. I want them to call a foul right away because once they in I'm bound to ball. If I don't foul right there and they dribble the ball up the court, I can't take the foul until they dribble all the way up the court, cross half court, and actually come to a stop. Because if you don't, it's a transition take foul. So it's 3 free throws instead of 2 free throws. And the 1 free throw, anybody on the court can take. So you're going to see your best free throw shooter up there. So I jumped on his back because I need them to call a foul now as an over-the-back foul. 0 seconds come off the clock. They got to march to the free throw line. Say if it was 4:07. It's 4:07 on the clock still. We didn't lose a second. Those 7 seconds are valuable down the stretch. Draymond Green.
