On the Warriors podcast with Jerry F:
#1 Jerry, Draymond Green said after Golden State’s 141-105 drubbing by the New Orleans Pelicans that the state of the team was his fault.
#2 Green said that he discussed with NBA Commissioner Adam Silver during his indefinite suspension that lasted 12 games that he wanted to retire and he had had enough. Silver told Green he wouldn’t let Green retire and that this was not the path to take to retirement.
#3 Steve Kerr said that Green’s career hangs in the balance and Green knows that. Kerr said that based on altercations he had from last season and this year Green is aware of that. This most recent altercation hitting the Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkić in the face got him the indefinite suspension.
#4 Jerry, is it time now for Draymond Green to retire and get out of the game. He could finish this season but his temper and emotions get the best of him and if this happens again it’s not going to be a good exit for him.
#5 Kerr said that the Warriors have put him on notice and Green had put himself on notice and that’s the way it has to be according to Kerr.
