Steve Kerr does not mind the Rondo-Green antics
Steve Kerr does not seem to mind the ongoing antics between Draymond Green and Rajon Rondo.
The Golden State Warriors coach was asked on Saturday about Green and Rondo going back and forth with each other. He said it’s part of the game, though he did make one exception.
Steve Kerr on Green/Rondo: "I don't see anything wrong with it, except for the tripping. I'm all for trying to get under a guy's skin. But you can't try to step on a guy's foot."

Kerr says trying to trip an opponent crosses a line beyond playing mental games. This is probably the play Kerr was talking about.

Additionally, Rondo had another controversial play where he appeared to slip his leg under where Steph Curry would land after a shot.

When asked if he said something to the league about that play, Kerr said “possibly.”
As long as you’re not trying to injure someone, Kerr is mostly OK with it.
