Draymond Green reacts to the Kyle Kuzma-Spencer Dinwiddie beef

Recently, FanDuel interviewed Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie. Among the discussions was the topic of Kyle Kuzma and his comments on Twitter after the Washington Wizards pulled off a dramatic win over his former side, the Dallas Mavericks. Professional advice stopped him from responding before, but no one was there to pull him back this time. Accepting his pettiness, Dinwiddie let loose.

“If you look at him, the way he approaches life, fame and all that stuff, we can see that you know, his priorities tend to vary. That’s why he dresses the way he does, he approach basketball the way he does, the comments he makes. Like I said with the Draymond quote, ‘Insecurtiy is loud’. You know that you’re there you know shooting shots, trying to get a contract. You’re probably not even a third star really on a good team because if you were, the Lakers would have kept you,” said Spencer Dinwiddie about Kuzma.

It didn’t long for the former Los Angeles Lakers star to respond. And it wasn’t a short one, to say the least. Calling Dinwiddie “delusional“, the Wizards forward fired an entire thread at him. He made harsh comments about Dinwiddie’s tenure with Washington. He even claimed the Nets guard has been “bounced around like a basketball”.

New to this feud, Green saw Kuzma’s explosion first. Loving the heat and intensity, he reacted by saying, “Sheesh!! Champ talk”. Green followed this up by commenting on Dinwiddie’s clip as well. He wrote, “Wow! I hadn’t watched this yet“.

Draymond Green played the role of instigator perfectly in the scenario. He stayed close to the scene, yet was far from getting involved. There is no timeline for when this feud between the former teammates will end. However, looking at the thoughts each star has about one another, the upcoming battles are bound to be a bullfight.

When did this feud begin?

Spencer Dinwiddie explained the origins of their spat during the same interview with FanDuelTV. While still on the Mavericks, Dinwiddie, and Co. lost a game to the Washington Wizards. As a side coming off a Western Conference Finals appearance, the 30-year-old was unhappy with the result. He demanded better from his Dallas teammates.

However, Kuzma felt he was taking a shot at the Wizards implying the Mavericks shouldn’t lose to a team like theirs. In response, he lit the fire and tweeted, “The funny thing is they don?t play winning basketball?.?This resulted in both of them taking shots at each other recently and it doesn’t look like they intend to slow down.
