Draymond Green and Tari Eason exchanged words after the game, despite Eason’s season-ending leg surgery. As a Houston Rockets player, he was forced to watch his team battle against the Golden State Warriors from the sidelines. However, he found a unique way to motivate his teammates by wearing a T-shirt that poked fun at the Warriors’ famous rallying cry taken from a 1979 movie.
Unfortunately, Eason’s attempt at trolling did not go unnoticed by the Warriors players, including Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. They responded in their own ways, with Thompson criticizing Eason for wearing the taunting shirt without actually playing in the game. He emphasized that trash talking is acceptable when you’re competing on the court but not as a bystander.
This incident was not an isolated one, as Eason had previously posted similar taunts on social media, drawing responses from Warriors players. The outcome of the game had significant implications for both teams, with the Warriors solidifying their place in the play-in spot and the Rockets facing a challenging path to qualify.
Despite being sidelined by injury, Eason’s actions sparked conversations and reactions from both teams, underscoring the intensity and camaraderie present in NBA matchups. The experience served as a valuable lesson for young players like Eason to always back up any taunts or statements with on-court performance and respect sportsmanship in competitive games.
