Draymond Green should not have been suspended for his Game 2 stomp on Domantas Sabonis

I don't think he should have been suspended for it because he got, he got his foot grabbed and it wasn't even that hard of a stomp. Yeah, he's a big guy and you probably shouldn't step on another man's sternum intentionally, but at the same time, like his foot was being grabbed, you gotta get the guy off you somehow. I think it should have been a flagrant, I don't think he should have been suspended.

Opinion Basketball Hot Subjective

The suspension was upheld and served, but the take itself is a subjective opinion on league discipline.

The Kings will beat the Warriors, but then the Lakers will eliminate them to cause maximum pain

They're gonna beat the Warriors in this series. It's gonna be a great story. The first team to take down the Warriors, the Lakers are then gonna beat them and it's gonna be all the bad memories from all the from that series and everything is gonna get brought back up. It's perfectly set up for a team to like capture the Hearts of America and then the Lakers to basically have us relive the worst moment in King's history.

Prediction Basketball Hot

The Warriors actually beat the Kings in 7 games in the first round, although the Lakers did beat the Warriors in the next round.

Playoff James Harden is dead

My take of playoff James Harden is dead, died last night cuz he was so bad. I was so excited after Saturday and then last night, I mean he like didn't even belong on the court.

Opinion Basketball Medium

Harden had multiple 40-point games later in the playoffs (Games 1 and 4 vs Celtics), proving he still had star-level flashes, though he was inconsistent.

The NBA should 'cancel charges' and abolish the charging foul because stepping in front of a player while covering your nuts is not a real defensive move

we came to the conclusion that they should cancel charges if you step in front of a guy and put your hands in front of your nuts... for two reasons. One, that's not a defense, it's not a defensive move. You can't make a defensive play if your hands are covering your balls. And also you should be willing to get hit in the nuts to take a charge. That should be part of the price that you pay.
