Henderson) Draymond Green #23 of the Golden State Warriors complains to official Pat Fraher #26 after Fraher called a technical foul on Green against the San Antonio Spurs during the third quarter in an NBA basketball game at ORACLE Arena on October 25, 2016 Oakland, California.

After a media feud with James Harden over his kicking habit, Draymond Greed did it again. This time he kicked Marquese Chriss in the butt. The incident leads to the question whether he is really unintentional to fly his feet in the air or not.

The Golden State Warriors’ forward kicked Harden in his head in the 127-132 loss against the Rockets on Thursday, Dec. 1. Following the incident, they both engaged in the media feud as reported by CBS Sports.

Green accused Harden for drawing the foul with his play, calling it unnatural acts. Green was given a Flagrant Foul 1 after kicking Harden in the head when Harden was making a layup. Green also criticized the NBA for allowing player like Harden to draw the foul.

Harden responded during the launching of his signature adidas shoes on Sunday as reported by Sports Illustrated. He said that his layup style with two hands is a normal play in basketball game everywhere in the world.

“I wouldn’t call it unnatural. For me, I just go to the basket and go up with two hands like you’re taught,” Harden said. “If you grab my arm it’s a foul. That’s pretty natural in the sport of basketball, in any league.”

Harden also said that he is not sure with what Green said as unnatural act. He also mentioned that some players are copying his signature move and for him that is a great feeling to become the trendsetter.

Before media feud with Harden, Green  kicked another player. This time Phoenix Suns forward Marquese Chriss received Green’s flying kick during the Warriors’ 133-109 victory against the Phoenix Suns on Saturday, Dec. 3.

Green was losing the ball. As his arm was up in the air and so was his feet flying, kicking Chriss  in the butt in the third quarter of the game. The incident was so bizarre which made people to think whether his flying kick is intentional.
