The mic'd up montage instantly cut to the notably outspoken Green jokingly calling out the referee about a missed foul call.
Granted, it appeared to be all in good fun, but Green sharing his "feelings" is practically a given for any and every game.
It also is hard to imagine he will be any more tight-lipped on his podcast, whether or not he knows the zebras are tuning in.
