Golden State Warriors forwardDraymond Green said New York Knicksowner James Dolan operates with a "slave master mentality" by taking issue with Charles Oakley's criticisms after the organization benefited from his contributions as a player.
"You doing it for me, it's all good. You doing it against me -- you speaking out against my organization -- it's not good anymore? That's a slave mentality. A slave master mentality. That's ridiculous," Green said on his "Dray Day" podcast on Uninterrupted.
"It was all fine and dandy when he was laying people out, taking fines and all this stuff for your organization. But now, all of a sudden, when he says something that he feels, it's a problem."

The Knicks lifted their ban on Charles Oakley on Tuesday, sources told ESPN, but Oakley says he just wants an apology. The former Knicks star said he is "in pain now. I'm
Oakley was ejected from Madison Square Garden and arrested following an altercation with arena security on Feb. 8. The Knicks say Oakley was ejected after being verbally abusive to security; Oakley, who was charged with three counts of misdemeanor assault for his physical confrontation with security, denies the Knicks' version of events.
Dolan banned Oakley indefinitely from the arena two days after the incident, but he lifted the ban earlier this week after meeting with Oakley and commissioner Adam Silver, with Michael Jordan joining by conference call.
Oakley told ESPN later Tuesday that he's still upset over Dolan's public claim that he has a drinking problem and that he wouldn't accept the Knicks' invitation to a future home game.
Green and others have criticized Dolan, who took over as owner of the Knicks after Oakley was traded from New York, for suggesting that Oakley has a drinking problem.
"That's not something that you say to the world. That's not classy at all," Green said on his podcast. "It's not OK for you to go say to the world as a multi-billion dollar organization. How can you even pin that on someone? Just throw that out there. That's grimy. I think that's wrong."\
