If you come at Draymond Green, you best not miss.

After Golden State defeated Boston in Game 6 of the 2022 NBA Finals to win its fourth title in eight seasons, Green wasted no time trolling Jaylen Brown and the Celtics. Now, he's getting into a back-and-forth with Grizzlies star Ja Morant.

If you missed it, Klay Thompson called out the Grizzlies' Jaren Jackson Jr. after the Warriors won the title for tweeting "Strength in numbers" back on March 29, 2022, the day after Memphis defeated Golden State by 28 points in the final meeting of the regular season between the two teams.

Morant caught wind of Thompson's rant and responded with a simple message.

Of course, it didn't take long for Morant's tweet to come across the timeline of Green, who has been quite active on social media the last few days.

Morant also responded to a tweet saying that a Warriors-Grizzlies matchup on Christmas Day is "all but guaranteed at this point," calling for it to be played in Memphis.

You'll be shocked to hear that Green disagreed about where the location of the game should be. And for what it's worth, Morant didn't back down.
