Big shock. Mike and Mike show, Bruce Bowen is on saying DGreen should not be suspended. It was unintentional. Let's see. Steve Kerr and Bruce Bowen were Spur teammates and won a title in 2003.

Draymond Green at practice today.

When asked about the kick by reporters Draymond relied "That's my purse, I don't know you!"

Possible Post of the Year candidate. Well done.

while I know this obviously hurt a lot, his delayed reaction actually made it a bit funny.

But on a more serious note, I don't think he intended to kick him, let a lone there. I think in an attempt to flop he threw his legs like that, but I don't see how you can't suspend him for that.

no way the NBA will actually do anything to Green, this whole season is about Curry vs Lebron in the finals, just wait and see what the refs do to OKC the next game. Green tried to kick him. Period

Cool. Every OKC player when they shoot should kick their leg out, whether it connects with a GS player. They can say afterwards it wasn't intentional so they won't be suspened.

OK. Anyone watching this Toronto Cleveland game? What is up with the officials? Honestly. I'm not crying conspiracy here but this is disgusting. I'd really like some insight from the guys on the board here.

This is one of the differences between the regular season and the playoffs. The refs let them play. I don't see the way the game being called in this series is favoring either side.

IMO, Green should be suspended in game 4 but he's not out of the woods just yet, he's on thin ice. Given his tendency to get emotional on the court, he still may get suspended for the smallest ticky tacky thing. If I had influence on the OKC approach to this situation, I'd encourage them to provoke Green into that emotional response.

And Bruce was one of the dirtiest players in his time. All his nonsense was "unintentional," also. Don't get me wrong, he was on my team, but he was dirty as all hell. It's ridiculous that Dray isn't suspended for a game. ESPECIALLY after the league suspended Dahntay Jones a day earlier.

Totally agree with this, the nba is very tainted in my opinion and if OKC didn't have a team I wouldn't pay a bit of attention to it, like I don't pro wrestling, ha!
Not saying fixed, but tainted for ratings and money.
I just can't imagine OKC vs Toronto in the finals, two small market teams with no players named Lebron or Curry. I would be happy but I will be utterly shocked if it happens because I believe officiating ensures series and matchup maximize profit.
