Seems like the LA Clippers and Golden State Warriors beef isn't over just yet. In light of the Clippers' recent blowout win over the reining champions, Warriors guard, Shaun Livingston took a couple of shots at Clippers' center Blake Griffin and the rest of the team.

During Tuesday's preseason game, the Clippers won by 35 points. This was a game in which star point guard of the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry, did not participate. Now, considering the fact that the Warriors and Clippers have an ongoing beef, trash talk was bound to happen. And this trash talk didn't sit too well with Warriors guard (a former Clipper) Shaun Livingston.

"They were out there talking. If they want to talk, we want to talk," Livingston told NBC. "We're not going to just back down. They're up 20 and talking, up 30 and still talking.

"It is what is. It's the game. But just play the game. That's all."

Now, normally Livingston is a quite and mellow player, but clearly this 130-95 preseason loss caused him to be pushed to the edge. Well, that and the fact that Griffin was a little too physical, as Livingston also pointed out that Clippers Center Blake Griffin was excessively aggressive:

"He's going with all these antics; just play," he said, as reported by CSN. "He's out here wrapping me up, putting elbows to my forehead. Ok. I understand. Don't get me wrong. They want to beat us."

Don't get him wrong here; given the fact that he's a veteran, clearly Livingston has been through his share of mental and physical pain beyond what most players could even imagine, but Griffin was merely partaking in gratuitous roughhousing:

"You're out here trying to throw elbows at me and wrap me up and do all that," Livingston said, according to LA Times. "That makes no sense to me. Just play and you don't have to do all of that. You're big enough and strong enough that you can just box me out without doing all of that."

Now, the Clippers and Warriors are set to play against one another in approximately two weeks (Nov. 4), and this game just so happens to be a regular season game (which means it actually counts).

So Livingston, the Warriors and the Clippers better be prepared for more trash talking (and probably roughhousing, too), as this rivalry seems to be never-ending.
