The second-round matchup between the Golden State Warriors and Utah Jazz has yet to begin, and there already appears to be a degree of animosity between the two ball clubs.

After several Warriors admitted to cheering for the Clippers because of the lack of nightlife in Utah, Jazz small forward Joe Ingles fired back at his opponents, joking that he's willing to help them find the entertainment they so desperately crave.

"If they want to go to L.A., they can still go to L.A. between the games if they want," Ingles told Tim Bontemps of The Washington Post. "They've got enough money to pay for a jet to go and then come back on game days if they want the entertainment.

"Or they can drive to Vegas, too, if they really want. I'll hire the car for them."

However, if the Warriors are looking for suggestions on particular hot spots, the 6-foot-8 Australian admitted that he likely won't be of much help.

"I haven't thought about the nightlife in about 12 years," Ingles joked. "I wouldn't be able to tell you one place to go in America."

Game 1 will tip off on Tuesday at Oracle Arena.
