The Christmas Day game between the Golden State Warriors and the Memphis Grizzlies was not very Christmassy, as two of the rivals met for another game on a big stage. A lot of trash talk between the two teams was featured during the game. Without any second guess, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green led the trash talk against Memphis. At the receiving end was mostly Dillion Brooks

The Warriors were playing without their primary offensive arsenal on Christmas Day, Stephen Curry. Before even the game started, the Grizzlies were seen celebrating and huddling for perhaps an obvious win against the wounded Warriors. But how the game turned out to be, was unexpected to both fans and Grizzlies. The Dubs defeated Memphis by a convincing margin, 123-109. 

Entering the game, the Grizzlies were the top seed in the West with a 20-11 record, while the Warriors were the 10th seed with a 15-18 record. At the end of the 2nd quarter, the Warriors were leading only by 5 points. However, the tide hit Memphis even harder, when the Dubs score 40 points in the 3rd quarter and took a 15-point lead in the game.

Dillion Brooks was upset with the refs for letting Draymond Green and Klay Thompson trash-talk him

Throughout the game, the Warriors were seen taunting the Grizzlies after every shot and defensive stop they made. The Grizzlies, and to a certain extent Mark Jackson, who was also covering the game thought that the refs made some terrible calls during the game. Most of the calls went against the Grizzlies’ players.

At one point in the game, Thompson was given the ball to make free throws instead of the Warriors player against whom the foul was committed. After the game, upset Dillion Brooks said that the game should have been officiated by different referees. “Refs let it happen. He was doing it all game then they want to catch the bad guy…”  said Brooks. “F-cking up calls and putting the wrong guys at the free-throw line…Should have had different refs,” he added. 

Draymond Green, who is also considered one of the biggest trash talkers in the league, at one point in the game was seen saying, “You watch it! You watch it! P***Y!” Apparently, the remarks were made against Dillion Brooks, who was on the bench resting. Brooks was upset and complained to the referees and asked them to keep Green in control. 

Last season, the Warriors and the Grizzlies faced each other in the Western Conference semi-finals. The Warriors defeated, Memphis in 6 games, with a convincing 4-2 win. Fast forward, Dubs won their 4th championship against the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. It is obvious that a lot of animosities are left between these two teams. Going forward if they face each other in the playoffs, it would be a gift for the fans.
