AJ Price was trying to impress his friends and family last night, but Deron Williams let him know that Brooklyn is his home now. Per the NY Post: “After Andray Blatche stole the ball and threw it ahead to Williams, he was fouled by Price as he went up to score with just under a minute to go. The two started jawing at one another immediately after hitting the ground, and were hit with double technical fouls on the play. Price, who is from Amityville, LI., and gave out 20 tickets for last night’s game, said the whole thing was a miscommunication on both sides. ‘In the heat of the moment,’ he said, ‘guys say things all the time and one thing led to another, but all in all, it’s part of the game.’ Williams, on the other hand, saw things a bit differently. ‘He started talking for no reason,’ Williams said. ‘I didn’t do anything. He said, ‘I’m home.’ I don’t know what that means. I guess he had some boys in the crowd that he wanted to impress or something like that while he can with the little minutes he’s going to get this year. ‘[I told him] it’s my home now.'”
