    Yeah I think Green gets off without suspension because A) the NBA is not booting a key player unless it absolutely has no choice and B) LeBron was the dick here (no pun intended). Green's swipe was bush league but LeBron should have just walked away rather than going out of his way to step over him.

    Low hanging fruit.

    I'm not arguing in LeBron's favor ... but Draymond's first reaction can't be to take a swipe at a dude's junk. That's all I'm saying.

    Normally this makes sense. But, you know, when you go out of the way to step over Draymond Green (of all people) so that you're straddling him with your junk in his face ...well, that's just begging to get your junk swiped.

    Suspending Green would mean undeservedly rewarding Lebron for that move. I say just ignore it and play on. Same way they handled this shit back in the 80s and 90s.

    Draymond suspended for Game 5. Agree with you Stoney, but clearly the repeat offender thing clicked in here.

    LBJ gets a tech as well. Should also get an ESPY for crying. Obviously since the Cavs couldn't figure out another way to stop the Warriors, just have him turn on the waterworks.

    I'm just tickled by the thought that Draymond won't even be in the building for the title celebration because he can't stop going after dudes' dicks.

    Brian Windhorst just had an orgasm. In fact, he's on his third or fourth right now.

    I'll agree Green needs to stop with the nut shots but he shouldn't have been suspended. LeBron started it, he was the douche and he just got rewarded with one of the key pieces in Golden State's death lineup.

    Why on earth are they not playing Game 5 tonight?

    What good is giving James a t? Do the Warriors get to shoot retroactive free throws?

    He wasn't suspended for the nut shot. He was charged with a flagrant foul -- an entirely reasonable penalty -- for the nut shot. He was suspended because his dumbshit act for the last month put him in a precarious position.

    No problem with it here. In fact he should have missed Game 5 of the OKC series, and if he does that maybe the Warriors are long gone by now.
