Windhorst is an idiot.

Is it because he burned TSN or Sportsnet saying that is why the Cavs went to a bar to see the West play? No TNT or ESPN.

 

[bigred50]

I have a feeling the Cavs are going to annihilate the Raps tonight.

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

NBA conference room looking like a scene out of 12 Angry Men trying to figure out what to give Draymond.

 

[LyleLanley]

I mean his past behavior of kicking his leg out at thin air.

Does this matter? He kicked a dude square in the nuts.

 

[Resilient]

Draymond sill not suspended?

Draymond blaming YNB for starting this?

Someone needs to kick this guys fkn ass.

I always get confused that ESPN's Rachel Nichols isn't the same person as the hot as fuck actress.

Maybe it's just me but..ESPN's Rachel Nichols kinda fine also.

Bron said he'd cover dahntay jone's big fee of $80 for the hit on biyombo
so generous

Betting lines are moving as if Draymond will be out. May be bad news for the Dubs.

Nah, the fix is in. The NBA will suspend Adams for his nuts ruthlessly attacking Green's foot.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Who the hell is Dean Blevins?

Spoiler

He's claiming Draymond has been suspended.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I think Jonas is playing tonight. This could change everything

 

[phanphare]

edit fake?

 

[Gully State]

I can't see him not getting suspended...unless the NBA cites YNB as precedent.

Yes, it could change the game 3 win into a game 4 loss ;p

While him being there would be a morale boost for your squad, he could be rusty and a liability on PnRs. (would also take Biyombo off the court who gave the Cavs troubles)

Either way, I'd like you guys to be at full strength for us to beat you.

my bad I thought I was looking at my home page lol

I'd love to see how this thread reacted to this when it happened. When will Westbrook be punished for this reckless behavior?

Local CBS sportscaster in OKC market. Former OU QB. Well connected locally, but no reason to believe he would have a scoop on NBA dealings that the national guys wouldn't have.

 

[RatchetWhiteGirls]

This happened with the ball in his hands and it wasn't a forceful kick. He was clearly trying to create space but it wasn't a KICK and he wasn't looking at the guy who caught the foot, he was looking at the hoop. Not even close to what DG did.

 

[eBay Huckster]

i'll settle for winning by 3

And the other two? All it takes is random chance for those to become low blows as well. ANY TIME you kick your legs out, that's a possible outcome.

 

[Fjordson]

NBA waiting this long is nuts man. Just announce it.

 

[Atomic Playboy]

NBA waiting this long is nuts man.

I see what you did there.

 

[Resilient]

Kicking your legs out to create space with the ball in your hand: reckless, deserves a Flagrant 1

Kicking a guy square in the nuts, intentionally, when you have already lost the ball and landed after your attempted drive: Flagrant 2

 

[Lee Chaolan]

I see what you did there.

:jnc

 

[phanphare]

he's gotta be out game 4 if they're waiting this long

if he wasn't they would've just gotten it over with already

 

[Fjordson]

I see what you did there.

Just not sure why they're letting it hang like this.

Spoiler

k im done

I do think the betting lines moving towards OKC basically means he's suspended.

I see we're back to the intentional with absolute certainty talk.

They probably dont want the penalty to be too stiff.

 

[Resilient]

I see we're back to the intentional with absolute certainty talk.

Why, cause he said he didn't mean to do it?

What is lying?

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Why, cause he said he didn't mean to do it?

What is lying?

Because it's not remotely obvious or definitive from any angle + we have tons of video of him kicking his leg out to get calls?

 

[jbug617]

This person says Green is suspended.

@TimGriffinBig12: Breaking news: Draymond Green will miss Game 4 for his groin kick of Steven Adams. More coming.

https://twitter.com/TimGriffinBig12/status/734876586537852928

Also the line moved from GS -1.5 to OKC -1.5

fwiw that person got fake woj'd

Think that guy is just taking a shot, don't think he'd have the scoop before NBA guys like Woj or Amick.

The line moving is more telling imo.

"The NBA will not suspend Golden State's Draymond Green for Game 4, league sources tell @TheVertical." - @WojVerticalNBA

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Green not getting suspended per Woj

Now the NBA needs to suspend Lebron for flopping. That is the real crime.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Isn't the line dictated by user bets?

"The NBA will not suspend Golden State's Draymond Green for Game 4, league sources tell @TheVertical." - @WojVerticalNBA

BAHAHAHAH I'm sure the twitter warriors will begin their NBA boycott tonight.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

No suspension. No excuses now if OKC takes it.

 

[LyleLanley]

I hope Green gets one in the goods for this.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Tim Griffin ‏@TimGriffinBig12 now
Guys: Just saw a tweet and somebody hacked my account. I have nothing nothing on Draymond. Sorry.

LOL

I'm surprised tbh.

Nice. I didn't want OKC to end this run with an asterisk.

Lame. You'd have to be blind or a fucking homer to not see that it was intentional. This also shows the league is cool with flopping and selling calls. Horrible.

Once again, plenty of people, including Charles Barkley who picked the Thunder to win, did not think it was intentional.

Just because you think it was intentional does not make it so.

Silver can't have the Warriors second most important player suspended for such an important game.
