    When was the last time you saw a great player lobby to get someone suspended?? Never.

    If you haven't seen it, check out this story from SportsCenter tonight. A teen girl with leukemia and her wish being granted by Stephen Curry.

    People are acting like it was a natural reaction. Draymond LUNGED to get at the dick. A 6-8 dude with a 7-2 wingspan had to stretch as far as he could to get there and y'all are blaming LeBron.

    This post is a model in the art of embellishing the facts to support one's point. Damn near every word in it is exaggerated. "LUNGED" "stretch as far as he could to get there" Christ, you make it sound like he was in a horizontal dive in a desperate attempt to reach Lebron's junk. That ain't what I saw at all. Nor what anyone else I know saw either.

    And, btw, Green only measured between 6'5" and 6'6" without shoes at the combine and has to exaggerate a bit just to list himself at 6'7". You're the only person I've ever seen suggest that he's 6'8".

    You do know that this very thread includes someone claiming to have watched the play a dozen times and not seeing Green hit James in the groin, right?

    And people claiming that LeBron threw Green down. He barely touched him and he fell over. We all know that was a damn flop.

    Did LeBron antagonize Green with the stepover? Of course. And he provoked him into doing something that got him suspended.

    His best contribution of the night.

    And at the end of the day, LeBron is going to have another Finals loss and a punched dick and Green is going to have back-to-back titles. So it was a Pyrrhic victory for LeBron.

    A grown-ass man has now thrown three dick punches/kicks in a matter of weeks. I'm not sure his wingspan or the degree to which he lunged are particularly relevant.

    True, but I'm not the one who suggested it was relevant.

    That post was not necessarily meant to defend Green, but merely to point out the striking level of embellishment in the prior post. If you fudge the facts then you're fair game to get called on it.

    And when he comes back, other grown-ass men will try to touch his head and dive at his knees to try to get him to yell at them so he can be thrown out of a game that he plays for our entertainment. It's a silly-ass thing.
