Steve Kerr and Draymond Green got into a heated altercation during the third quarter of the Golden State Warriors' 120-97 blowout win over the Orlando Magic on Monday. Kerr and Green were livid during a timeout, which resulted in Green heading to the locker room to cool off.
The Warriors star never returned to the game despite coming back to the bench in the fourth. His absence didn't hurt Golden State as the team went on a 51-26 run to win the game. After the game, Kerr addressed the situation, saying:
“We got into it, obviously. … We had it out a little bit, and he made his decision to go back to the locker room to cool off. That's all I'm gonna say about it everything's private."•

Kerr revealed he didn't want Green back in the game after he left for the locker room and returned to the bench.
"He wasn’t going back in… He left. He went back to the locker room. And so we moved forward, and the guys played great. Hell of a win."“He wasn’t going back in… He left.

In the last game, Draymond Green got ejected early in the second quarter, down 10 and still won against the Suns. After a similar instance with Green playing limited minutes occurred, albeit for different reasons, the Warriors fan base seemingly had enough of the veteran star.
Here's how they reacted:
@TheWarriorsTalk @shubhydoo Trade him. Hes terrible now and his antics are old.
@TheWarriorsTalk @shubhydoo Alright folks. Time’s up. Trade him now
@TheWarriorsTalk @shubhydoo I'm sick and tired of both of them. Trade one, fire the other.
@TheWarriorsTalk @shubhydoo Trade Dray and Kuminga, Jimmy makes Dray no longer a necessity to anchor the defense.
@TheWarriorsTalk @shubhydoo It feels like Draymond’s days as a Warrior are nearing their end.
@shubhydoo @BR_NBA Trade Dray
