"Draymond out here throwing technical fouls on Twitter", "Even if there was a game 7, he’d drop a measly 4 pts and 6 fouls" - Fans hilariously troll Draymond Green for his scornful Father's Day tweet as Grizzlies-Dubs tussle continues
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has been relentlessly trolling rival teams and their players following his team's championship win. The Boston Celtics were his latest target, but fans have hit back with some hilarious responses.
Green used the occasion of Father's Day on Sunday to remind the C's that they would have played a Game 7 had they not lost Game 6. Here's what he tweeted:
"Getting ready for Game 7 tonight… locked in!!! Happy Father’s Day"
Green was in the spotlight for his back and forth with Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant before he mocked the Celtics. NBA fans have thoroughly enjoyed the former Defensive Player of the Year's digs, but rival fans haven't missed the opportunity to hit back.
Fans have responded to Green. One posted on Twitter:

Fans blast Golden State Warriors and Draymond Green for keeping receipts
The Golden State Warriors weren't favored by many to win the title this year. Many analysts to rival fans had harsh words for the franchise following their 2019 Finals run.
Kevin Durant's departure and Steph Curry and Klay Thompson's long-term injuries meant the Dubs weren't likely to win a title anytime soon. They finished last in the 2019-20 season and ninth the next year.
They missed the playoffs after back-to-back losses in the play-in tournament to the LA Lakers and the Memphis Grizzlies. Green and company quietly soaked in all the criticism about their title credentials.
However, they have now hit back after winning this year's championship. Except for Warriors fans, several others have directed criticism towards the Dubs for not keeping their demeanor after being crowned as champions.
Draymond Green, in particular, is leading the charge. He has engaged in back-and-forth with Ja Morant, retweeting stats and passing sarcastic remarks.
