West, Draymond duck questions about Pachulia's move on Kawhi
No matter how hard reporters tried, no matter how much history is there, the Golden State Warriors refused to rat out their teammate Zaza Pachulia.
San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich, who coached David West last season, implored reporters to ask for West's opinion on Pachulia as part of a heated rant on the circumstances surrounding Kawhi Leonard's injury.
But West wasn't biting, offering only that Pachulia is, "just trying to win."

West and Pachulia got into a heated confrontation last season. Pachulia swung his elbows near West's face before they joined forces in chasing a ring with the Warriors.
Draymond Green also stayed silent on the matter, turning away from the issue entirely as he changed the subject to Game 2.
