It may be bull , but you could smell it from a mile away.
. This means I have to cheer for the Thunder now because Draymond Green.
But, but it would change the outcome of the series
Think I'm starting to lean over to the "Today's NBA" side of the crowd...

Raymond is gonna get booed every time he touches the ball. OKC fans are gonna be vicious. If this was the Spurs crowd, the arena would still be empty.![]()
Seriously...how much more transparent can you get?
End of the bench Jones gets suspended for a much less egregious "punch" to the nuts, if you can even call it that.
Golden boy Green gets slapped on the wrist for punting Adams balls into his stomach because it would "affect the series."
They can't argue that "you can't judge intent", because they already ing did for Dahntay. They just want to soak up a few more games revenue from their media darlings.
The moral here: if you are a superstar or on one of the leagues protected teams, you can basically get away with anything as long as you act like you didn't mean to do it.
Thought LBJ was ringing there
Naw man, we still have the strawberry/lime swirl margaritas. Those are good for at least 10,000 fans.
It definitely looked intentional. Now that doesn't mean that he started the kick motion that way but when he saw he was already kicking he added a little oomph.
The NBA is acting like this was an actual court trial with this intent bs. They sound like the OJ Simpson jurors when they said in an interview "We know most likely he committed the murder but we can't prove it 100 percent that he's guilty because there is still a 2 percent chance he possibly didn't do it."
I think the no suspension has as much to do with the way Adams plays. Spurs needed someone to get rough with him...
This is what the conference Finals is supposed to be. all that "we respect the Spurs" , where they all play patty cake and everyone goes back to their hotel and have dinner together. I want to see an eyeball laying on the court, and for Russ to stomp it.
..to JVG
The way Draymond played, Warriors might be better off it he sat.
Come to the dark side my son...
Today's NBA.
If you kicked Curry in the nuts...
a one game suspension. I'm thinking something more along the lines of a firing squad.
It just gives OKC that much more incentive to come out and beat the out of GS tomorrow. That image of Adams being kicked in the nuts should be on every locker door and next to that image should be another one of Draymond smiling![]()
Agreed. He should still be suspended tho.
Some guys pay good money to have their balls kicked. It is painful, but, afterward, after the pain is gone there is a frame of time where your body is totally relaxed, almost like a reset.
The Suns shot 64 free throws in game 7 against the Sonics in '93.
Yeah it's just today's NBA.
We're discussing the lack of suspension for such an obviously intentional nut kick scro...andtoday's NBA is far more ref reliant than 90's ever were, even though the game was more physical in its golden age of DK's two three-peats.
My order of nut kicks that need to happen the rest of the Playoffs:
1. Drake
2. Draymond Green
3. Steven Adams again, because it's funny
4. Billy Donavan
5. Lebron, to see if he will actually do a backflip when it happens because he flops like a Spanish soccer player

I'm excited that NBA players are now allowed to kick each other in the balls. Let's add this event to All-Star Weekend.
