Are we going to start threads for every ref complaint now ? Or only if it's the Warriors?

Re: Should Draymond Green gotten a technical for that taunt?
At this point, I just don't care about anything regarding Draymond Green. That said, in the context of everything else, I personally believe the answer should be "no". It was merely taunting, it is not a big deal.

Nah, let him be. Taunting is all part of the game. Let Westbrook figure that one out. Don't think this thread is necessary.
One of these days dude will get what he deserves.

There have been plenty of threads complaining about the refs being in Cleveland's favour, let's not be silly with the victim complex.

Victim complex?? Haha. So dramatic. It's just silly to start a thread because a player yelled after a big block in the first quarter.

Are you kidding me? The guy kicked someone in the balls and didn't get suspended.
He can do whatever he wants apparently because if he gets kicked out of the game it will be "deciding the series", and it won't be fair to the Warriors because they aren't 100%, so he can do what he wants.

There's no chance he gets thrown out / suspended. Statistically, the Warriors are more likely to get eliminated anyway, and on top of that, a 3-1 comeback is a narrative the NBA would love.
Considering that the chances are that the Warriors don't make it out of this hole, tossing / suspending Green is neither here nor there, and prevents said storybook narrative from possibly emerging.
It's win-win for the NBA right now. You have an underdog winning (great storyline), and you have the possibility for an epic comeback from the league's darling franchise. Either way, win-win.

Freaking Barnes and another useless reaching foul.

If they called Draymond on every technical he should get based on the letter of the law for NBA rules, he'd be suspended until 2019.

Agreed lets just enjoy the show. I can understand if you're a fan of the Thunder and Durant got hammered and failed to get a call. A little complaining is in order, maybe a little whining is acceptable.
But whining because we need the refs to call techs on psychological warfare, some trash talk? Its a high level competition. Thunder players have choreographed dances.
Just win.

Well there's the tech call, even if a bit late.

Lol I always find it hilarious how so many people in here call the NBA soft now. Yet when stuff like this comes up a lot of those same people want a guy to get a tech for staring down someone.

Just like Mr. E pointed out, there is a game thread to express thoughts like this.
