Draymond Green has processed and moved on from the incident with Jordan Poole
that disrupted the Warriors' 2022-23 NBA season, but it resurfaced again with
one of his new teammates.
The Warriors forward was asked by Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown
on the latest episode of his NFL show, "Why Is Draymond Green Talking About
Football? with Jordan Schultz" about he and Steph Curry's longevity with
Golden State and how new players might be intimidated when joining a locker
room with such established voices.
Green recalled an honest conversation he had with one of the Warriors' newest
players, who also happens to be the oldest on the roster.





"We had a conversation, we had a minicamp in San Diego this past September
and Jimmy Butler hosted it and it was incredible," Green said. "And we had a
dinner outside in Jimmy's backyard. Myself, Al [Horford], I think Moses
[Moody] maybe, Will Richard ... And so we were sitting there talking, and Al
asked me a question ... He said: 'Man, so the elephant in the room, I have to
ask you, we've got to know, what happened with you and Jordan Poole? Like
why?'
"So we start going through the whole thing and it was a very deep
conversation, and from that one question, the conversation among us probably
went on for an hour. It was one of the best conversations I've ever had with
teammates, because in that moment, it made me realize 'Ah man, these new guys
are coming to this team, and they don't really know what to expect from me.
They don't know, like, 'Is this guy just going to hit one of his teammates?'
They didn't know what to expect."




我、Al Horford，我記得Moses Moody，還有Will Richard……我們就坐在那兒聊天，然後


Horford問了我一個問題……他說：『兄弟，有件大家都心照不宣但沒人提的事，我必須問

你，你和Jordan Poole之間到底發生了什麼？為什麼會那樣？』」



。他們可能會疑惑，「這傢伙會不會突然攻擊自己的隊友啊？」他們完全沒底。』」


Green realized at that moment that even though he already has explained and
moved on from the Poole incident, there are some outside the organization
that still might have some trepidation -- or at least questions -- about his
leadership in the locker room.

"And so when we had that conversation, I was like "Ah damn, OK. I really
gotta lock in.' And we had an incredible conversation, and you could just
kind of feel the tension right there among that group just [disappear,]"
Green added. "It was such a learning lesson for me ... because if he never
asked that question, I don't really know they feel that way."
Green has discussed the incident countless times over the years, and it's
clear that he has moved on, but after the conversation with Horford, now he
has fully processed his emotions and understands the perception some might
have of him before getting to know him.

And if anyone has any questions about it moving forward, he won't shy away
from answering them.


Green意識到在那一刻他才明白：儘管自己即使已經解釋清楚並放下那件事，但球隊外部

仍有一些人可能對他還是不安，尤其是在他能否勝任隊內領導角色這件事上。



裡是這麼想的。」

過去幾年裡，Green已無數次談起這件事，很明顯他已經走出來了。但與Horford的這次對

話後，他才真正徹底梳理了自己的情緒，也理解了某些人在尚未真正瞭解他之前，可能會

對他產生怎樣的印象。

並且Green表示，今後若有人對這件事有疑問，他依然會坦然回應，絕不逃避。
