If there's one thing that separates the NBA from other major sports leagues, it's the unpredictable disdain and hypnotizing drama that emerges between players from season to season.

This year, junkies have been treated to boiled blood between the Memphis Grizzlies' young core and veteran winger Andre Iguodala, who has held out all season in hopes of being dealt before the Feb. 6 trade deadline.

Rookie point guard Ja Morant has spearheaded the campaign against Iggy with a clever tweet endorsing Dillon Brooks' savage comments concerning their outcasted teammate from Monday night.

Though powerful, the Murray State product wasn't quite finished eviscerating Iguodala.

Memphis' No. 2 overall pick was caught liking an NSFW tweet about the three-time champion, and recently clapped back at Steph Curry, who came to Iguodala's defense on Twitter by referencing his three rings.

How did Morant respond? With an equally-savage photo of Kevin Durant embracing his Finals MVP trophy.

My goodness. Morant went for the kill shot of all kill shots by reminding Curry that he's yet to win a Finals MVP, despite being a three-time champ. Not only that, but it's clear Durant was the driving factor from the last two Warriors' Finals victories.

Morant did, however, catch some flak for a post from 2015 that congratulated Steph on winning a chip, and he cleared the air on being perceived as a "hypocrite," while asserting that he isn't deleting his original tweet.

Morant's fearlessness is one of the many qualities that has fans gravitating toward him as a 20-year-old rookie. He even provided evidence of him previously lauding Curry on Twitter.

This is EXACTLY what the NBA needs right now with the All-Star break fast approaching and the 82-game season beginning to take a toll on its star players.
