Lol at Steph. Lebron dominated his 73 win team,...
Then there’s reality: Lebron loses his 3rd straight Final if the league office doesn't suspend out of politics the Warriors best defender (this year’s DPOY) and 2 way player, in the closeout game; the likes of which has never happened in NBA Finals or MLB World Series history. Then it took Kyrie's winning shot to win the 7th game, Lebron isn't a closer. The Warriors getting Durant may have been part Karma.
Politics? Green is the dirtiest player in the NBA. He absolutely deserved the suspension.
Where was Green in Games 6 and 7?
Roy I have to ask you this. Do you think if the Cavs were up 3-1 when Green had the same mini spat with Lebron he still would have been suspended? I honestly do not think he would have been. It really seemed like the league should have suspended him in the OKC Thunder series, but did not want to with Golden State down in the series. I think Adam Silver is doing a solid job overall but the way that was handled and how arbitrary it was reminded me of Roger Goodell.
Oh, it's completely arbitrary. The league, for whatever reason, has decided to coddle Green, the dirtiest player in years. I'm sure they would have let him skate again if the series were lopsided in the Cavs favor.
He deserved the suspension though.
I agree with you completely.
People can speculate all they like about whether he WOULD have been suspended IF the series was in a different position.
Fact is the series was in the position it was in, Green made a dirty play, he absolutely deserved a suspension and he got exactly that.
This is especially true when it is somebody like Draymond Green, who has a very well documented (and very long) history of clearly intentional dirty plays.
Draymond is old enough to know what he's doing, if he commits a stupid play like that thereby putting himself in a position to be suspended for such a critical game, then that's on him and nobody else.
