PlayOffs NBA 2022: This is how Draymond Green spends them: Hit in the face, grabbed by the chest… and expulsion

Draymond Greenthe combative pvot of the Warriorsbrought out his bad manners again and it cost him the expulsion in the first game of the Western conference semi-final against the Grizzlies. Nobody disputes that he is one of the best defenders in the NBA, sometimes bordering on illegality with his excess of intensity, but this time he crossed the limit of the permissible.

Lack of 1.18 for the break (54-53), Green stopped a flight to the basket Brandon Clarke violently. First He let go of her hand and punched her in the face.and seeing that his rival, almost without seeing, was about to finish the tray, I grab his chest and then his shirt.

the one of the Grizzlies hit the ground with a tremendous blow to the ground, despite the fact that Green himself tried at the last moment to hold him to avoid that bump. But neither isthat alleged intention served as an excuse for the arbitrators, that after reviewing the play they decided to point out blatant type 2 fault, for which he was expelled.

Green mounts the show before leaving the court

Before the referees made their decision public, the one with the Warriors I sensed that I was going to be disqualified and start to make a fuss from his bench to the locker room entrance and vice versa. When the referees signaled Green’s infraction, visibly excited and moody, he greeted his teammates on the bench one by one and ran to the locker room raising their hands and provoking the public, I gave him a loud blast.
