Lue has a very punchable face. He's way too arrogant for someone who hasn't even been through a full season as a head coach.

James has been great, like usual, regardless, but it's amazing seeing how Toronto are defending him on pick and rolls. They are going three to four steps into the paint daring him to take jump shots he isn't too interested in taking.

Love has looked terrible.

I guess Bron decided not to bring JR Smith to the presser today.

Just read an article from Chris Mannix talking about how the NBA was right in not suspending Green. Basically, he says that it's better for the league that fans get to watch the two teams battle it out at full strength.

I honestly hate the decision. With the C's eliminated, I don't have a dog in this race; and as much as I hate seeing a team get handicapped, I hate biased decisions even more so. Even worse is that this incident comes off the heels of the Dahntay Jones incident, where he got suspended a game for doing pretty much what Green did!

I get it. Stars get calls. They get the benefit of the doubt. But this decision is dripping with so much bias that it's hard to stomach. At this point, if Green reaches the limit for techs, I wouldn't be surprised if the league rescinds one of his techs to keep letting him play.

If this was Avery Bradley or Amir Johnson kicking someone's groin, you can bet it's a 1-2 game suspension plus a few hundred thousand dollar fine.

It's funny that Demarcus Cousins seems really bitter about it as well on Twitter. I guess he feels like he routinely gets the short end of the stick and then this happens.

When he gets his team to the Conference Finals he can start to complain. He doesn't even get them to the playoffs.
