At the start of the game, Poole was guarding Green down in the post, and some pushing and shoving ensued.
After a foul was called, Poole stole a pass from Draymond and took it the other way for a fast break dunk.

Certainly the two haven't forgot each other.
Right before halftime, Poole hit a three and started pointing at Green. However, Stephen Curry helped the Warriors get the final jab by ending the first half on a buzzer beater.
