First it was his response to Dahntay Jones bumping him during a nationally televised postgame interview.
Then it was his "very cool story, Glenn" message to head coach Doc Rivers.
Now? Draymond Green just can't hide how much he detests the Clippers.
“They have a cocky arrogance, like they’ve won something, and they haven’t done nothing,” Green recently told Jonathan Abrams of Grantland. “They pretty much been to the same spot in the playoffs we’ve been to. But they have this cockiness like you’re supposed to bow down to them."
When it comes to comparing playoff success, Green isn't wrong.
In 2012, the Clippers reached the Western Conference semis before falling to San Antonio.
In 2013, they fell to Memphis in the opening round, while the Warriors advanced to the semis.
Last year, the Clippers knocked the Warriors out of the playoffs in a winner-take-all Game 7, and then lost in the semis to Oklahoma City.
Since moving to Los Angeles in 1984, the Clippers have never reached the Western Conference Finals, while the Warriors haven't advanced that far since 1976.
Both teams believe they have what it takes to get over the hump this year.
The Warriors will be the No. 1 seed when the Western Conference playoffs commence next weekend, while the Clippers could finish anywhere from second to sixth.
If Los Angeles finishes either fourth or fifth, it's possible the bitter rivals will face off in the semis.
The Warriors took the season series from the Clippers with a 110-106 win at Staples Center last week -- a game that meant much more to Los Angeles than it did to Golden State.
"We want to take their heads off, and they want to take our heads off," Green said the day before the encounter. "That’s just the way it is, so just roll with the punches ... It's no secret: They don't like us. We don't like them. And that's not going to change."
Despite the trash talking, Green did not suit up for the contest, something Rivers expected.
"That was pretty predictable," he said prior to the game. "We kind of assumed they didn't want to take the risk of going 2-2 with their regular guys."
"Either that or we have a nine-game lead (in the Western Conference) with a couple guys banged up," was Steve Kerr's sarcastic response. "It's somewhere in there."
The Warriors trailed by as many as 17 points in the first half, but as Kerr noted following the victory, "our competitive spirit kicked in and our guys really fought hard, in the second half in particular."
During the second quarter of that game, Stephen Curry juked Chris Paul to the floor and made the ensuing jump shot -- a play that went viral on social media.
The Warriors' bench players all jumped out of their seats and couldn't contain their excitement, but cameras didn't catch any reaction from Green, who was in street clothes.
"Thank you Jesus I was behind the bench because if I wasn't I probably would have got a tech (technical)," Green said on the radio two days later. "Man, that was pretty bad. Great move. I know for a fact Steph wasn't intending to do that, but Steph got the ball on a string and that move was incredible."
It's extremely evident that Green loves to run his mouth and isn't afraid of having to back it up with his play.
The Defensive Player of the Year candidate is the emotional and vocal leader of a team that is 63-15 and has a chance to become only the second team in NBA history (the '96 Bulls) to lead the league in both offensive and defense efficiency.
Green knows the Warriors need to prove themselves in the playoffs, and as he told Abrams, he feels the Clippers need to as well.
"They ain’t proved nothing. They ain’t earned nothing. What respect have you earned?”
