Steve Kerr on the heated back-and-forth with Draymond Green tonight that led to him going to the locker room and not playing in the final 20 minutes. "We got into it obviously... We had it out a little bit and he made his decision to go back to the locker room to cool off. That's all I'm gonna say about it. Everything is private." He didn't play the last 20 minutes, would you have gone back to him? "No. No. He wasn't going back in." Was that a decision by him or you? "He left. He went back to the locker room."

Final bow for today. I can respect and understand the trade. I’ve argued it’s something they should have done pre draft or last year when kicked around but didn’t need to go down like this. History will decide if it was the right move but I think both sides will eventually win after where this landed in the last week. More on Good Morning Football and Insiders tomorrow with locker room reaction.

I was on Fox & Friends this morning and I still can't believe it was real. I got to sit next to Ella Frei - who's been a hero of mine - and thank Sophie Cunningham for standing up for girls like me. Last season I had to compete against a boy, and there was a boy changing in our locker room. When we spoke up, we were told to let it go. So getting to say it out loud this morning meant everything. If you're going through this right now: you're not crazy, and you're not alone.

MPJ talks about Russ as a teammate and the stories that leaked out of the locker room last season “So Russ, here’s the thing, it would be hard for any player to go from being the MVP of the NBA to then taking on a role off bench. When he went to LA (LAL & LAC) he was disrespected crazy. When he came over with us, he came in with great energy, he really bought in to the system and cheering people on. The things that came out were normal things that happen within an 82 game season. It was strange. I looked up to Russ. Me and Russ have a good relationship”.

Paul Pierce says LeBron James should really consider retirement after having a great season go down to injuries: “This is demoralizing. It really is like when you come in it’s the end of the season, you gearing up for a playoff run. And then you go down your two other two best players. It’s mentally draining. Like if I’m in that locker room, I’m like I’m looking around I got to do this myself at 41. It’s so draining on me mentally for him that I would really seriously contemplate retirement…. I can’t come back and go through this another year with the Lakers. That’s just mentally draining. It’s mentally draining on him, his mind and his body now. Now he’s going to be his last few games, he’s going to be playing all these minutes, then he’s going to be playing heavy minutes in the playoffs. It’s just, you know what? I’ve done enough for this league, guys.” (Via No Fouls Given)

George Kittle on Brandon Aiyuk: “The last time I saw Aiyuk, he was kinda at training camp, kinda not and then he was in and out of the building throughout the first couple of weeks. Then I started going out to see him in the weight room because he didn’t go into the locker room or the training room anymore. He would just go into the weight room to do his rehab. I would go there and talk to him because he didn’t go to meetings or anything like that. I would just talk to him and let him know 'I’m your guy. Just letting you know I love ya'. I started doing that week 6 and then a week later that story came out about all the crazy stuff and then I didn’t see him again. It’s not something I bring up to John Lynch or Kyle Shanahan very often. I’m like that’s on you guys. I just try to be there for the players if something is going on… I don’t know what’s going on with Brandon. I don’t know what he’s thinking about. So I really have no idea… He did text me after I got hurt and said 'thinking of ya' and I said thanks dude.” 🎥: Bussin' With The Boys | Will Compton

Beth Bourne says her daughter was offered a transgender surgery by Kaiser Permanente when she was only 15 years old in California She says students at Davis Unified School District are being transitioned and allowed to “cut off their breasts” and offered testosterone “My daughter was offered a mastectomy by her Kaiser Dr. Lynn, you know, Alyssa, her doctor, when she was only 15 years old at Kaiser Davis, said that she could go to the gender proud clinic in Oakland and take testosterone and have a double mastectomy” “There's quiet boys in this town who right now are being told because they're so quiet and so sweet and so sensitive, they might actually be girls. And you know, I met one of these boys yesterday at Da Vinci High School, and he told me that he's so happy to be on estrogen, that he's been on estrogen for six months — he said he lost his sexual function, but he doesn't care” Mother Beth Bourne confronts the liberals supporting this She has also been an outspoken activist of getting men out of women’s restrooms and removing boys from girl spots During a school board meeting, Bourne removed her outer clothing down to a bikini while at the podium. She stated she was demonstrating what it feels like for girls to undress in front of biological males in shared locker rooms in PE classes We need more people like Beth Bourne

Matthew Tkachuk talks about the importance of playing in honor of the late Johnny Gaudreau, a BC Men's Hockey legend who tragically passed away in August of last year: “Everywhere you go in that locker room, you see his jersey and that No. 13. You get emotional because he should be here with us competing and playing for this country. We don’t take this opportunity for granted, and he’s one of the big things we’re playing for right now. “He’s with us, and he’s looking down on us, we know he’s gonna give us all the strength he can to compete and do our absolute best tomorrow. So him and his whole family, we think about them all the time. I heard that maybe his wife might be in attendance for the game, which is super special to us. You know, it’s just an opportunity that we have for so many people, but especially them to show what we can do, and definitely have him in our thoughts.” WEEI #USAHockey #TeamCanada #4Nations

.Lindsay Schnell asked Geno Auriemma how he made sure Paige Bueckers' spirit wasn't broken while injured last year. An incredibly insightful two minute response ensued. "She was always the most upbeat, positive person in the gym. You knew that when she went home she was a completely different person. You knew that it was killing her and tearing her apart, but great players like that, they carry a light around with them because she's a positive player who shines light on other people... But privately, yes, it tore her apart. I only saw it manifest itself once. We were playing at Tennessee. You come to UConn you want to play in a Tennessee game... I saw her breakdown in the locker room that game... These kids, this is what they dream of when they go to college and play basketball and if their dream taken away from them, it's like they're half a person. Some people are just miserable and let it beat them and some people, they don't let that happen. And Paige is one of those people."

Kevin Durant says the Warriors never addressed the Draymond Green incident, ultimately leading to him leaving the team “It wasn't the argument. It was the way that everybody, Steve Kerr, acted like it didn't happen. Bob Myers then tried to just discipline you and think that that would put the mask over everything” “I really felt like that was such a big situation for us as a group, the first time we went through something like that. We had to get that shit all out” “I remember watching The Last Dance. And when Scottie didn't go into the game, the whole team in the locker room said, ‘Scottie, that was fucked up that you did that’” “We needed that. We just needed to throw all of that shit out on the table and say, ‘Yo, Dray, K, that was fucked up that we even had to go through that. Let's just wipe our hands of that and go finish the task.’ I don't think we did that. We tried to dance around it” “I just didn't like how all of that, just the vibe between all of that, it just made shit weird to me. And I'd rather us be who we say we are. Family first. Communication is key. We didn't show that. That's what rubbed me the wrong way more than anything”

Wesley Matthews says after going undrafted he turned down overseas offers of $160,000 and $140,000 which was more money than he'd ever seen, and chose to go to Utah where 14 of 15 roster spots were already taken, then an injury suddenly put him in the starting lineup against Derrick Rose on ESPN “My agent hits me up. He’s like, ‘All right, I got two offers overseas. One for $160,000, one for $140,000.’ Obviously that’s good money coming out your first year. More money than I’ve ever seen.” “Then he laid the land out. He’s like, ‘But if you go to Utah, they’ve got 15 spots. They’ve got 14 spots taken. They have 15 roster spots, and they don’t necessarily want to use that last one.’ He was like, ‘You’re going to have to go into camp and impress so much that they keep this spot, or you can go take this.’ So I was like, ‘All right. This is what I’m supposed to do.’” “So I go to camp with that kind of impress mentality and just played. I was there every single day. We flew to Paris. We played in Paris and London. Looking back, I’m like, damn, I didn’t enjoy any of it. None of it. I’m stressing. Everybody else is with their wives and stuff. I’m like, ‘I’m just here.’” “CJ Miles ended up getting hurt in practice over there, so that was another opportunity. I remember that practice happened, and afterwards I get a text saying I’m starting the next night. I don’t tell nobody because I’m trying to process this myself. We’re playing the Bulls. We’re playing Derrick Rose on ESPN in France. I’m about to start.” “I’m in the locker room and I’ll never forget D-Will came up to me. He was like, ‘You all right?’ I’m like, ‘I think so.’ He’s like, ‘It’s ball. Just go do you.’ I had like 16, 17 that night. I was doing everything. Completely blacked out. Completely blacked out. My phone’s going crazy. I’m just in this moment...” “Then we play, leave, and go to Madrid. I’m starting again, so I’m thinking, “All right, yeah, I’m a starter.” Here we go again. Worst basketball game I’ve ever played. I stepped on the sideline trailing for a three, turned it over, and I’m not even playing against NBA players. We’re playing against Madrid. No knock on them, but I’m coming in ignorant, like, “We just played the Bulls, D-Rose, Luol Deng, Ben Gordon, I don’t know any of these cats.” I played awful. I’m like, “I’m cut. I’m done.” I’m stressing on the flight back, bro. And then I was there another day. We kept going, kept playing in the preseason, and I just got more comfortable.”

Rest in Peace, Terry Bollea aka The Immortal Hulk Hogan 🕊️💐 To millions of little kids you were a childhood hero - myself included. In 1984, I gave you your “HULKSTER” headband back, in the locker room in Madison Square Garden - I was the lucky kid caught it when you threw it in the crowd. You were wrestling “Mr Wonderful”, Paul Orndorff that night in the main event. You were shocked and so happy after the match because you told me that was your very last headband and if it weren’t for me, you’d have no way of getting that exact one made again. You promised me that you would get more made and give me a Hulkster headband of my own as a thank you gift. A month later in Madison Square Garden, you did just that. You kept your word, with a handshake and a “thanks kid”. And that meant the world to that little 12 year old boy. Just 17 years later, and still a kid at the age of 29 years old — I’m standing in the middle of the ring and facing you - one of my wrestling heroes in the main event of WRESTLEMANIA. The match was to decide who would go down in history, as The Greatest of All Time. When you kick out of my Rock Bottom finisher - just listen and FEEL that crowd go ELECTRIC… all for you. I’ve never felt anything like that in my entire wrestling career. It takes two to tango, but that historic crowd reaction was all for you. You may have “passed the torch” to me that night, but you, my friend…. … you “drew the house” meaning you sold out every arena and stadium across the country in your prime as Hulk Hogan, on your way of becoming the greatest of all time. From deep in my bones, and on behalf of this wild and crazy world of professional wrestling that we love, I say to you now, and forever… Thank you for the house, brother… Thank you, for the house. RIP Terry Bollea aka Hulk Hogan 🕊️ #goat

One of Dennis Rodman’s most memorable nWo moments occurred on June 16, 1997, when along with Hogan, Hall, Nash and other nWo members, he entered the United Center – the site of the Bulls’ fifth championship victory just three days prior – in an electric opening scene on Nitro. As Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Voodoo Child (Slight Return)’ blared from the speakers for the first time, the camera immediately showcased a limousine which ostensibly had just arrived in the backstage area. Out stepped Rodman, cigar in hand, issuing veiled threats and offhanded jibes – meanwhile, Hogan bopped his head to the music in tow; a man in his element. In a brilliant production choice, the camera laid bare a veritable behind-the-curtain view, allowing fans to witness the duo approaching the stage in real-time. As Hogan and ‘Rodzilla’ appeared in front of the audience, the building positively erupted, giving way to fireworks, an air-guitar display and, of course, the customary Michael Buffer line: Let’s get ready to rumble! If there ever was a representative moment of the nWo’s cool factor, this was it. The segment achieved the rare distinction of appearing rather spontaneous, almost as if Hogan and Rodman – in a casual, last-minute fancy – decided to stop by Nitro en route to other places. In reality, however, the backstage environment had been a whirl of activity just moments before the show went live. Days later, the Chicago Sun-Times columnist Larry Hamel described the unfolding scene: A few minutes before ‘Nitro’ goes on the air live on TNT, WCW executive vice president Eric Bischoff strides purposefully down the long corridor that is the nerve center of the show. “I need an NWO shirt, a Rodman NWO shirt, and I need it two minutes ago,” he snaps. “Will somebody, anybody, please get me an NWO shirt.” Production assistants scurry around to find one, but wrestler Scott Hall, as cool as his New World Order character, ducks into his dressing room and, upon emerging, calmly flips a black-and-white NWO T-shirt to Bischoff. Dennis Rodman pops out of the Bulls’ locker room, wearing a shirt that reads “NWO Bite Me.” He’s joined in the corridor by ‘Hollywood’ Hulk Hogan, who’s puffing on a cigar, ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage, Kevin Nash and Hall. Just as Hogan is about to go out the swinging doors, he turns to Bischoff and says, ‘You sure you don’t want to be a part of this thing?’ Bischoff shakes his head and says, ‘No, this is your deal.’ Hogan says, ‘C’mon, put your (NWO) shirt on. You’re one of us.’ Bischoff nods and follows the group out the door. A few minutes later, he’s in the ring, microphone in hand, working a crowd of more than 16,000 into a frenzy as the middleman for Hogan and Rodman.

One of Dennis Rodman’s most memorable nWo moments occurred on June 16, 1997, when along with Hogan, Hall, Nash and other nWo members, he entered the United Center – the site of the Bulls’ fifth championship victory just three days prior – in an electric opening scene on Nitro. As Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Voodoo Child (Slight Return)’ blared from the speakers for the first time, the camera immediately showcased a limousine which ostensibly had just arrived in the backstage area. Out stepped Rodman, cigar in hand, issuing veiled threats and offhanded jibes – meanwhile, Hogan bopped his head to the music in tow; a man in his element. In a brilliant production choice, the camera laid bare a veritable behind-the-curtain view, allowing fans to witness the duo approaching the stage in real-time. As Hogan and ‘Rodzilla’ appeared in front of the audience, the building positively erupted, giving way to fireworks, an air-guitar display and, of course, the customary Michael Buffer line: Let’s get ready to rumble! If there ever was a representative moment of the nWo’s cool factor, this was it. The segment achieved the rare distinction of appearing rather spontaneous, almost as if Hogan and Rodman – in a casual, last-minute fancy – decided to stop by Nitro en route to other places. In reality, however, the backstage environment had been a whirl of activity just moments before the show went live. Days later, the Chicago Sun-Times columnist Larry Hamel described the unfolding scene: A few minutes before ‘Nitro’ goes on the air live on TNT, WCW executive vice president Eric Bischoff strides purposefully down the long corridor that is the nerve center of the show. “I need an NWO shirt, a Rodman NWO shirt, and I need it two minutes ago,” he snaps. “Will somebody, anybody, please get me an NWO shirt.” Production assistants scurry around to find one, but wrestler Scott Hall, as cool as his New World Order character, ducks into his dressing room and, upon emerging, calmly flips a black-and-white NWO T-shirt to Bischoff.

I asked Dallas Mavericks GM Nico Harrison four questions today at his end-of-season press conference: Me: “You said me and Coach Kidd are aligned, you know the player(s) that he likes. But when it comes to a trade of this magnitude, it’s the main player that led y’all to the finals last season, so I wanted to ask you, what did that conversation look like at the 11th hour when you told him that y’all would be trading Luka Doncic, and do you think it was fair to him to have y’all’s entire team to be built around Luka, and then in the middle of the season him having to pivot to a completely different player to try to make the title run again?” Harrison: “I think there’s some difficulties anytime when you do a trade that big during the middle of the season. We saw it when we traded for Kyrie a couple years ago. Sometimes trades take a little longer to really see how good a trade it was. But I also know his connectivity to Anthony Davis. He won a championship with him with the Lakers. I know his admiration for him as a defensive player, and so I wasn’t worried about that.” Me: “What did y’all’s conversation look like when you let him know?” Harrison: “It was really brief. I just told him the reasoning behind it and let him know, and he understood and he got geared up to start white boarding to get ready to see how we would play with Anthony Davis.” Me: “Do you feel like he agreed with those reasons?” Harrison: “I don’t think it’s about agreeing, but he aligns with how I think in terms of defense wins championships. That’s how he feels. He also aligns with the philosophy of versatile style of play. And so it really wasn’t about agreeing or disagreeing, it was about ‘I see the vision, let’s go.’” Me: “Defense is one thing that’s been talked about so many times when you’re referring to this trade. With you trading Luka, in a way you’re betting on Anthony Davis to help you guys but it’s also you thinking AD would help more than Doncic did. Outside of defense, why are you betting against Luka Doncic not being able to bring y’all a title when he was here?” Harrison: “It’s more about AD…I’m not going to bet against Luka or speak negatively towards him. He’s not here anymore. But it’s the belief that I have in the guys that are in this locker room.”
