Josh Smith Responds to Jab by Kenneth Faried
“I don’t respond to nobody with dreadlocks who plays basketball,” Smith said, referring to Faried’s hairdo. “He’s a clown, quote me on that.”
Faried got the better of Smith on opening night, but Smith vowed things would be different when the two meet again in early February at The Palace. Faried has made his name as an energy player at power forward, and earned his numbers in 27 minutes, which likely sticks in Smith’s craw.
“He knows it’s coming, he knows, next time we play,” Smith said. “In order to make those comments like that, you gotta be able to back it up and we’ll see next time.”
“I’ll have some words while I’m busting his (behind). I back it up when I talk. It’s gonna be a pretty good matchup.”
