Draymond Green called out Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins for his response to Green's trip of Zach Edey, calling Taylor 'too emotional.'
The foul, which was upgraded to a flagrant 1 the following day after a league review, occurred in the third quarter after Green lost the ball on a drive. Edey had picked up the ball and threw an outlet pass when Green's left elbow got tangled with Edey's right foot and the Grizzlies center tripped over Green's sprawled out leg.
Jenkins and Edey both said the play should've been reviewed for a flagrant foul during the game, with Jenkins intimating that Green broke a"code" in the league with the trip."...You run into the media crying about a foul that, c'mon bro, with your 7-3 rookie," Green said on his podcast,."So guess what you just taught your 7-3 rookie? How to be emotional and run to the media talking about a foul. We bigs, we big men.
"You got janky Taylor Jenkins, who's a softie, goes out and at some point ... we beat y'all in the NBA playoffs because he was too emotional," Green said."And so then his team followed that and they follow your lead and collapse because they couldn't deal with the emotions of it. But they coach couldn't deal with the emotions of it."
