Jusuf Nurkic Drops Mic On Draymond Green Following Warriors' Elimination

Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

Tuesday night's collapse by the Warriors marked the official end of a Golden State dynasty for many NBA fans. 

Dancing on Golden State's grave was Phoenix Suns big man Jusuf Nurkic, a victim of Draymond Green's temper. Nurkic was slapped by the Warriors vet during the regular season.

The Bosnian beast posted a well-timed troll Tuesday night, waving ‘goodbye’ to Green and the Golden State dynasty.

Pulling a famous quote out of Looney Tunes lore, Nurkic posted a GIF of Porky Pig's famous send-off. 

That’s all, folks!

And honestly, good for Jusuf Nurkic.

Nurkic is in the long line of guys physically assaulted by Green this season or in years prior. 

The infamous exchange between Nurkic and Green prompted one of the best post-game quotes heard from an NBA player.

"That brotha' needs help," Nurkic said on the night Green was ejected.

Draymond had chances to showcase a new attitude, going back to the well when it came to hooking guys by the neck or playing like a wrecking ball on the court. The enforcer doesn't know when to pump the brakes and put the team first.

Now that we can reflect on Draymond's impact on the Warriors this season — Green's extended absences stemming from his conduct issues set the Warriors up for their eventual 10th seediin the West, and early exit in the play-in.

The remaining playoff teams have to be relieved that Green is out of the postseason. Not out of fear, but more of concern for one's health.

After all that, Green will still be just fine

The worst-case scenario for Draymond portends Golden State Warriors ultimately cutting their losses with the veteran and shipping him to L.A., where Green can frolic around Manhattan Beach with buddy LeBron James. 

Or Green hangs around Golden State to keep us wondering, how does he get away with all that?
