The Golden State Warriors have been the most successful team of the 21st century. Having won four NBA titles and making six trips to the Finals in the past decade, the Warriors have etched their names in the list of the strongest teams in the league’s history. But their previous season was filled with controversies for the team. A certain seven-time NBA Champion recently gave his take on one of the major controversies that took place and slammed the parent of one of the players involved.
For context, the three-point god Stephen Curry wasn’t able to lead his team to the NBA Finals this time around as the dub nation got knocked out of the second round in the NBA playoffs. One might argue that Curry did not have the full support of his teammates, as the team had some internal conflicts going on.

For the unversed, Warriors’ Draymond Green punched 24-year-old Jordan Poole in the face during a training session last year. The incident between Green and Poole caused a lot of uneasiness inside of the Golden State Warriors.
Poole’s father went on a brutal rant against Draymond on Twitter soon after the incident. Anthony Poole wrote, “I?m stand on this that?s is some bs. Jp was his guy and he avoid me all last yr. He is a soft as bitch and I?m standing on this and he didn?t apologize to me and my wife. So he lame and me and him can meet anytime he want.”?
Robert Horry gave his take on whether Green owes Mr. Poole an apology or not. Horry said, “I don’t think he owes anyone an apology. The only person he owes an apology is Poole (Jordan Poole) and the organization. He’s still wrong no matter how he wants to word that.”?
