OT - Should Draymond Green be suspended?

If Draymond is suspended the warriors are F'd FAMS!!

 

"It was just prank, bro" ~ Draymond Green

 

Knowing the league, Draymond's flagrant 1 will be rescinded and Steven Adams' testicles will be issued a warning for threatening Green's foot.

 

Since Draymon has acknowledged that he 'sold' the call, here's a bit of info on 'Flopping'

Did he intend to cause harm? I don't know. But he flat out stated that he 'sold' the foul, essentially flopping. Flopping is an intentional act. The foul by Adams did not cause his leg to rise. If your flopping causes harm, the individual should take full responsibility for that harm whether it was the intent or not.

 

Executive summary:

"It's not my fault his nuts got in the way of my cheating".

Seriously, since when did admitting you were flopping become your best defense against getting suspended? After watching that video, the NBA should suspend him for two games: one for flopping and one for kicking Steven Adams in the nuts.

Well they are both uncalled-for and unnecessary but one guy was a Blazers I guess.

 

No, read what I wrote. One happened in an NBA game and the other didn't. It's completely irrelevant. Big fat fucking hint: READ THE TITLE OF THE THREAD, THEN POST.

Unreal. The guy is a freaking moron.

 

Every time you post trying to think you're one upping people, and are wrong every time, I have Linkin Park's "In the end" always going.

 

I wish I could like this post 100 times.

I did it on purpose.

Black privilege.

 

My FAV Linkin Park song!

It doesn't even matterrrrrrerrreerrrr!

 

I get the premise of him not being suspended so the game is better.... But setting that standard that it's "okay" to do that if you are a star in the playoffs is terrible for the league. If a guy fouls out they don't overlook it and allow him to continue playing for the sake of the game being better. They don't postpone a game due to injury of a star player either. If he can't keep his emotions in check that is his and the coaching staffs fault.

 

Seen them live 3 times.

No, but sometimes the refs "protect" a star player that gets in early foul trouble or already has one technical - which is also complete bullshit. NO SITUATIONAL OFFICIATING! The rules don't change over the course of a game or the course of a series. So, the way the rules are called/enforced shouldn't change either.

Most the time they can claim human judgement or that the complaining looked worse than it was. The fact that this incident was already called a flagrant, It's hard to back out of, especially with the attention it is getting, and that Jones was suspended the same day as this happened.

BTW DG needs to grow the fuck up and quit being a spaz. He reminds me of a spoiled 3 year old who missed his nap.

 

That's why it would be ironic.

 

Makes me wonder if we still have some GSW fans hanging around here after the last series.

I've read several online articles/blogs about the situation. The overwhelming consensus is that, based on his actions and the precedents, Green should be suspended. What is interesting is to read the comments by the Warrior fanboys and Green apologists, who obviously haven't examined the precedents and don't understand the rules. It's sweetly ironic to see their claims that if Green is suspended it proves the league is biased against them - the most coddled team in the history of the NBA.

Yeah, because we all know what a huge marketing win it would be for Cowtown to make the finals. The ratings would be off the charts in the rodeo and NASCAR fan demographics.
