OAKLAND – Game 1 of the Warriors first round matchup with the Trail Blazers was a close game wire to wire with the energy level ratcheting up with the start of the playoffs.

With that increased level of energy came a bit more gamesmanship from both teams. And Draymond Green – a notorious trash talker in his own right – might have caught the worst of it.

After Green missed an easy dunk in the second half, CJ McCollum took time to tell Green he needed to do more calf raises. Following the game, the Blazers guard doubled down on what he said on the court.

“Yeah, he does need to do some more calf raises after that dunk,” McCollum said. The shooting guard went on to explain that talking trash is just part of his game.

“Where I’m from, if you talk trash to me I’m going to talk trash to you. It’s nothing disrespectful, I’m not talking about nobody’s mamas or anything like that.”

Damian Lillard also noticed Green’s chirping.

“I don’t even talk trash and (Green) was saying so much out there that I had a whole lot to say tonight,” said Lillard.
