It has been about a week since we saw the Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green hit Cleveland Cavs superstar LeBron James in the dick after LBJ stepped over him during Game 4 of the NBA Finals. And while Green got suspended for Game 5 following the altercation, everyone wondered what words were exchanged between the two immediately afterwards.

Bill Simmons may have leaked the truth during his podcast today with guest Jimmy Butler of the Chicago Bulls.
“I heard Draymond, I heard he didn’t say the b-word. I heard it began with an F and ended with boy,” Simmons said. “That’s why I think LeBron took it so personally. I’m sure LeBron has been called the b-word before. He really got upset, his feelings got hurt. It’s really hard to hurt LeBron’s feelings. … Something happened.”
It was originally believed that Green dropped the ol’ “bitch” or “pussy” on James, which caused people to call LeBron soft for not being able to take the simple insult. The Internet reacted to the news that it might have actually been “fuckboy” instead.
Wait. Draymond called Bron a fuckboy & not a bitch? Yea thats worse, lol.
