The Golden State Warriors stole away home-court advantage from the Memphis Grizzlies after their 117-116 Game 1 victory on Sunday night. The Dubs showed their playoff experience as they held off Memphis and Draymond Green just had to make sure the message was loud and clear.
FOX Sports analyst Skip Bayless also wanted to make sure that Ja Morant and the rest of the Grizzlies received Green's warning shot. Bayless took to Twitter to call out Morant over Green's comments about Memphis:
“HEY, JA, DID YOU AND YOUR GUYS SEE DRAYMOND ON TNT BEFORE THE HEAT GAME? HE TALKED ABOUT HOW HE'S EVEN MORE “COMFORTABLE” PLAYING MEMPHIS IN THE PLAYOFFS THAN THE REGULAR SEASON BECAUSE THE WARRIORS ARE JUST SO MUCH MORE EXPERIENCED THAN YOU GUYS. JUST IN CASE YOU MISSED IT …,” Bayless wrote in his tweet.

Well, he isn't wrong here. The Warriors have been through their fair share of playoff battles and in terms of experience in the postseason, the Grizzlies are indeed at a huge disadvantage against a tenured Warriors side.
Skip Bayless loves to fuel flames and this is exactly what he's doing to Morant and the Grizzlies here. I guess he's also trying to fire up Morant and Co. in his own unique way.
