Deni Avdija and Draymond Green talk about a hard collision between them on court. Green says he was upset but respects that Avdija stood his ground, and explains his philosophy: he sometimes waits years to return the favor, but never forgets.
Do you remember? I think it was last year or two years ago. I hit you pretty hard or something. I forgot. You came up to me. You were like, next time you go to the rim, watch what happens.
Watch what happens.
Every time I drove, I was waiting for that elbow or punch or something. And then at the end of the game, I came up to you. I was like, hey, Dre, like, man, I was waiting for you the whole game. I thought you were gonna get me back, man.
I loved your response to it. I was a little pissed off when I said it to you. You were just like, yeah, all right, like, what's up? I can always I always respect somebody that like is willing to take it. Some guys I don't get back for a couple years. I never forget, you know, sometimes it takes me a couple years to get you back. You hard, right, Denny? So I'm still going to get you because you laid me out. Got the mind of an elephant, Denny. I don't forget. I just sometimes, you know, let it go on.
