I remember when Parrish jacked up Laimbeer. That was 10 times worse and he only got a game. He would've received at least a 5 or 10 game suspension today.

Knowing Laimbeer, he probably had it coming to him.

I hear you but it really doesn't matter what they did in generations past. I'd be fine with a hefty fine. I don't want the Warriors having excuses if they lose.

Draymond was a -43 last night. That is the worst I've ever seen.

Being a fan of the Bad Boys the most underrated hoop team in NBA history I can appreciate cheap shots. But when you do the same thing to same guy back to back games. Green has to be suspended. BUT he wont be because the NBA is farce. If he is suspended the series is over. The NBA can't have that. The Rockette's don't kick like that. Does Green think he can get away with this because he was on SI this week? Was it the monkey statement? No excuse. No fine. One game. Series over.......

I'm not saying he won't be suspended. I'd just rather see him out there playing. The way Golden State is playing it may even be a better matchup for the Cavs, but I prefer home court.

I can't remember, did the suspend Harden for kicking Lebron last year? That seemed worse.

Only a LeBron fan would think that was worse. It isn't close.

The irony of that is he had the top plus/minus number in the league for the regular season.

Not sure how often it has been mentioned --maybe never or maybe 100 times -- but if the Thunder do go all the way, it will be just the 2nd time in history that the championship winning head coach would have won both an NBA title and an NCAA tournament title.

Larry Brown is currently the only one to date to do so. Go, Billy the Kid.

Gonna hold off a while on worrying about that!

Green upgraded to Flagrant 2, no suspension. Pretty weak but don't really care other than guessing Thunder better protect themselves. NBA won't...not from Warriors at least.

Just saw no suspension. The NBA has more sense than i thought. A fine is appropriate.

This league is laughable. I liked it better with rouge referees.

I do appreciate and understand your reserved enthusiasm but the Thunder did in fact make the Spurs look very old in winning that series and have generally looked like the better team so far against Frisco.

Just my unbiased opinion.
