Hey at least the game was close.

1st road win, I expect Cleveland to win the next and Golden State to close it out at home.

Lots of hyperbole in between

I didn't watch as I was busy witnessing Leo Messi score a hat trick as a sub in 19 minutes. Messi is greater than Lebron and that snotty whimp curry combined.

The series is over btw.

Yeah it helped keep Draymond in the game. Maybe he will finally get suspended for his latest groin shot.

And Usher has a minority stake in the team.
Hmmm, learn something everyday.

Green could very well be suspended. They will consider the full sequence of events.
Saw the play. No chance. Did they even review it during the game?

Nope. Draymond said something to Lebron, Lebron dragged him down and stepped over him, Draymond pushed/swung twice getting up, and then they tussled under the backboard for a rebound. The whole game was very physical and the refs weren't calling much on both sides.

great strategy by draymond to get into lebron's head. i hope he doesn't get suspended and keeps it up in game 5 for entertainment value alone, because this series is boring af.

NBA puffing it's chest out and suspending Draymond now that the series is already over.

This series is likely going 6 now. Dumb mistake/tactic by Draymond. He was clearly pissed by Lebron walking over him.

Over in 5. Draymond is not the difference between a win or loss at home. I'm glad his ugly ass will be in a suit when his team clinches though.

I hope you're right, but he's pretty integral to their defense and small ball lineup.

According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, along with missing the game, Green is not allowed to be at the arena. The Warriors lead the Cavaliers 3-1 with a chance to win the championship on their home floor in Oakland, California, Monday night. That means, if the Warriors win, even without Green, he can't be there for the championship celebration.

Why? They looked broken walking off the court the other night to me. Lebron is going to roll over just like he has in the past.

they did after game 2 too, so what't your point? also, now their backs are really against the wall. also also, draymond gives GSW their edge/is their emotional leader/is a huge part of what they do.

If they hit their threes they will win. It's not that complicated. At home they should take care of business.

they should but I wouldn't be surprised either if they didn't come out as motivated simply because they know they got it locked up. They have to know they aren't going to lose three games in a row so they could get sloppy.

I expect a close game tonight. Warriors will be motivated to win it at home and the Cavs will benefit from no Draymond. Lebron in particular will have a good game.
