    I disagree. Looked like an unnatural motion to me. If Draymond Green did the same thing, we'd all agree with the tech.

    He seems to me a lot like D'Angelo Russell.

    To be fair, Draymond has a history of doing and getting away (don't know why..) with what we does. Idk if IT is that type of guy.

    True. But Draymond Green's history of such actions prompted the NBA to make a rule regarding such to apply to all players. The refs can't be taking individual histories into account when calling fouls, including those of the technical variety. Otherwise you end up with Rasheed Wallace situations.

    Draymond Green should get T'd up for being on the court

    Hi, I'm dviss1's answering machine. @dviss1 is away from the insanity right now, but his automated answers are...

    1) probably, he intentionally kicked a guy.
    2) depends on what happened before.

    thank you and have a nice day, click.

    Yeah but if I just became single after being married for a number of years, and I am a rich NBA player, do I ask myself where can I make the playoffs, or where can I find the biggest supply of incredibly hot women.....and make the playoffs?

    His priorities may have just been altered.

    I think it more like "Championship or our marriage didn't happen."

    I gotta say. San Antonio playoff run is pretty amazing when you consider getting lucky with Kawhi, dumping shitty contracts onto other teams and stealing other team's franchise players. I mean winning 5 titles. That's up their with the greateat dynasties ever....

    Buuuuut to keep that going when the original players are all wearing false teeth and going bald... AMAZING!
