Draymond Green and Austin Rivers have been going back and forth this week, and Rivers just made sure he had the last word.
It started when Green claimed Steve Kerr stunted his growth as a scorer.

The 36-year-old argued that the team hasn't run a single play for him since 2016.
When Austin Rivers went on The Dan Patrick Show, he called that claim "ridiculous," arguing that Green simply doesn't realize why he isn't used as an offensive focal point. Green retaliated on his podcast, mocking Rivers for being out of the league while Green is "still on act one. " He also called Rivers’ $42 million Clippers deal the "biggest bailout in NBA history.
