Draymond Green addressed the argument he had with Kevin Durant last season after the Golden State Warriors lost a game to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Green ended up getting suspended and there were reports that said Durant was disengaged from the Warriors after the altercation. 

"I just had to accept the fact that I was wrong. And once I was able to get over my stubbornness and accept the fact that I was wrong, I was able to move on. I lost [Durant's] trust," said Green in a recent interview. "How do I get that back? Not so we can win a championship or we can win some games ... but I actually loved this guy, like that's really my brother. And so not knowing what's next in our relationship bothered me more."

"[General Manager Bob Myers] and [head coach Steve Kerr], they told me, like, 'You need to apologize to Kevin,' before I got suspended," he added. "And I said, 'No, I'm not apologizing because y'all telling me to apologize. I'm not gonna do that.' And I didn't. And I never apologized to him until I came to grips with myself ... But I can kind of see a look in my brother's face that I have not seen. He's hurt. How do I fix that? And that was what bothered me more than anything."

Durant, who's now on the Brooklyn Nets, recently spoke to the Wall Street Journal and said he never felt like he was a part of the Warriors, which Green said bothers him.

"The thing that bothered me the most was that when, you know, when Kevin goes on his things he's doing in the media or stuff and he says, oh, I wasn't a part of that. Or, like, I was different than those guys. A part of it is like, no, he [was] one of us, and it pisses me off."
