Draymond Green recently revealed the moment he knew he had taken Jaylen Brown’s heart during the NBA Finals, but the Boston Celtics star begs to differ.
In a live podcast taping from New York on Monday, Green said he knew he was inside Brown’s head after the 25-year-old told reporters the Warriors veteran had tried to pull down his pants during their Game 2 altercation.
“When Jaylen Brown went in the media and said, ‘He tried and pulled my shorts down,’ I knew I took his heart,” Green said Monday.

Less than 10 minutes after the clip of Green’s claim was posted to Twitter on Thursday by “The Old Man and the Three” podcast, which collaborated with “The Draymond Green Show” for the live event, Brown chimed in.
Not only did Brown accuse Green of “losing his dam [sic] mind” since starting his podcast, but the Boston guard also appeared to call his latest adversary corny by way of the vegetable’s emoji.
He added one last retort in his post, claiming Green “could never” take his heart.
