The message to the other 3 teams will be, only one of top players will get away with cheap shots to the dick. Scrubs cannot.

IF Green is not suspended, OKC should just retaliate, why not?? Do something, make it look "unintentional", then after the game just keep saying it wasn't on purpose.. The nba set the precedent when they suspended Jones.. they really can't NOT suspend Green

Steve Kerr says that the Flagrant 1 should be rescinded and Russell westbrook kicks his leg everytime he shoots. If Draymond isn't suspended, Westbrook should kick Curry everytime shoots the rest of the series.

lol, I heard this on M&M this morning--I like Kerr, but he looks like an idiot saying this...and IMO, Green will get a one game suspension

I always thought it was just regional that fans around here didn't like the Warriors because they were in the way of the Cavs winning a ring last year. All year you heard all about how the Warriors are the most liked team and everyone loves Steph and the team.

Has this team "jumped the shark" as far as gone from mostly loved to mostly hated? Or is still just mostly people around here that can't stand Curry's stupid shimmy and arrogance, Draymond's constant yelling and screaming and tough guy act, and overall the Warriors in general?

I think it's starting to grow outside of cavs fans. That tends to happen with good teams though. I blame a lot of it on the media.

The Seattle Seahawks are another example. That team and their fans were the darlings of the NFL. Now nobody can stand them.

Yea, the over-saturation from ESPN and media doesn't help.

The Warriors are in trouble. I stand by my comments of 7 games and who knows what will happen. I expect OKC to win Game 4 and then Warriors Game 5 and 6.

I said Thunder in 6 before the Spurs series was over (when I said they would knock them out also).

Said I thought KD and Westbrook had the chance to be the 2 best player in the series any given game. Warriors wouldn't be able to stop that, because great player can simply best you no matter what you do.

Yeah, Green's looks 1000x more intentional than Jones'. Unreal.

This.

Although no doubt Jones deserved the suspension as well, Green deserves at least 1 game. His leg kicking out there is simple not a basketball move. If he doesn't get suspended, there will be a retaliation by the Thunder and you can take that to the bank.

I'm surprised he didn't say it was fine only b/c Adams had called them Monkeys earlier in the series. He's a race baiter.

He actually said what Dhantay Jones did was worthy of being arrested lol but that Green's kick wasn't intentional.

I mean you've gotta be either completely ignorant to reality, or an ESPN puppet to be saying that.

Kobe was suspended years ago when he hit Manu on a flail. I don't care about intent, if you smoke a guy in a non basketball move, you should reap the consequences of that. Don't like it? Don't flail around like an idiot. Just play basketball.

This.

Intent or not, you can't go around hitting/kicking dudes in the nuts. Jones deserved a suspension and so does Draymond.

I think Lebron can afford the $80 fine he's receiving. LOL.
