Crazy. Looks like they'll go super small with Iggy and Barnes out there to start with. It's still going to be hard for Cleveland to win, I think.

That's absurd, biased ruling by the NBA.

A flagrant 1 for a questionable swing that didn't even connect, that was actually Green trying to get Lebron's ass off his head, and no action against Lebron. Its hard to defend the league from people who say its rigged when this stuff happens.

This is just stupid.  Everyone knows they made it a flagrant instead of a tech because that makes it a suspension
I'm bitter.

Id have to agree to some extent. The league clearly has an agenda. Not that they want the Cavs to win (in fact I believe they want the warriors to win - would really help the story line), but they don't want this to end in 5. We've seen this same type of bias help the warriors out in the okc series when Green definitely should have been suspended. I don't hate this as much because I think its important to send Green a message for his reckless play. He gets away with so much it drives me nuts (moving screens, dirty plays, fouls, and prob deserves 2-3 techs per game).

Nope. Reportedly he can't even enter the arena even if GS wins the title that night. I hope GS wins, and the entire team just walks out right away to a nearby location where Green is waiting so they can celebrate with him and rub it in the league's faces.

The NBA is officially the WWE.

What a joke, Lebron started the whole thing.

The NBA couldn't let him go out in 5? This is so bogus

Green should also be in strong consideration for Finals MVP if they win it. It would be amazing if he's named Finals MVP and isn't allowed in the building to receive it.

and you just nailed the reason why Green won't be named FMVP.
If the voting committee last year did not give it to LeBron because it would have been awkward, I really doubt they would not think similarly for Green.
IMO Curry is the favourite, but we have to see how the rest of the series goes.

Yep. Thats a double bonus for the league, because so far Green is the favorite to win it, but the league obviously would prefer Curry or Klay to get it if GS wins the series

Draymond Green is not allowed in arena until after game. Safe money is on him being very near so if Warriors win he can get there quickly

It would be hilarious if he stands at the front door greeting fans on their way in.
