    The NBA hates the NW division.

    Small markets mean lower ratings mean less money.

    Adam Silver just became the new NBA's Darth Vader taking over for Stern's Darth Sidious.

    Welcome to the dark side, Adam Silver.

    I hate it when they do that. You do something suspension worthy to an opponent in the playoffs, your punishment should be served against that same opponent in the playoffs. Why should other Western Conference rivals benefit from actions against OKC in the playoffs? That could actually hurt OKC if Green's suspension occurred against a team they end up fighting for playoff seeding or HCA next year.

    OKC was wronged and had there been a suspension it should have been served against OKC in these playoffs. That is the only fair and just form of punishment.

    You ultimately want the championship games played by teams at full strength.

    10 games without pay might give everyone the idea that flagrant fouls don't pay at all.

    So, suspend him for one game NOW. If the 73 win Warriors can't make the finals with their 3rd best payer missing one game, they probably aren't the best team in the West anyway.

    The league is rigged. This should seal it for even the most hardened defender.

    I honestly thinks this hurts the Warriors. It was going to be hard for them to win in OKC anyways, but now IMO it will be harder.
    Before they were the team that was pissed after losing by 30. Now OKC is the team that is pissed, and they are at home......

    I just hope the guy who runs the jumbotron in OKC, that tells the fans when and what to cheer brings his A game. They're going to need him!

    Just play the clip of green kicking Adams on repeat. That should keep the fans going.
