    meh.... that slap wasn't worth 12 games anyway. its barely worth being ejected IMO. i realize he's a repeat offender, but i feel the gobert thing was partially justified since rudy did run up and grab klay when he should have grabbed HIS teammate if he was trying to be a peacemaker. he got fined close to 2 million. i think thats a pretty stiff punishment for one smack.

    Oh please. You guys are soft as baby ****. You wouldn't do any time for that with a lawyer and your fines wouldn't be anywhere near 2 million. That alone is more than sufficient.

    The league and frankly the Warriors would be better off without him at this point. It would not be surprising at all if he had CTE.

    The NBA reinstated Draymond Green on Saturday from a suspension that lasted 12 games, and sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that the Golden State Warriors forward is expected to need approximately a week of ramp-up before returning to game action.

    Green will return to the Warriors' practice facility Sunday after being away from the team while serving the suspension, sources said.

    The NBA announced an indefinite ban for Green on Dec. 13, one day after he struck center Jusuf Nurkic during a game against the Phoenix Suns.

    "Green completed steps that demonstrated his commitment to conforming his conduct to standards expected of NBA players," the league said in a statement. "He has engaged in meetings with a counselor and has met jointly on multiple occasions with representatives of the NBA, the Warriors and the National Basketball Players Association, both of which will continue throughout the season."

    The group meetings -- which were done over video calls and also included Green's agent, Klutch CEO Rich Paul, Warriors general manager Mike Dunleavy Jr. and team trainer Rick Celebrini, according to Wojnarowski -- were part of what the NBA described as "certain league and team conditions" that Green had to fulfill before his reinstatement.

    The league proposed that the path toward reinstatement be centered around counseling after a string of on-court incidents involving Green. A few weeks before hitting Nurkic, Green put Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert in a chokehold.

    Golden State agreed with the league's approach.

    "The one who choked Rudy, the one who took a wild flail at Jusuf, the one who punched Jordan [Poole] last year -- that's the guy who needs to change," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said the day after Green's suspension was announced. "This is not just about an outburst on the court. It's about his life. It's about someone who I believe in, someone I have known for decades, who I love for his loyalty."

    While Green was away, he had little contact with Kerr and most of his teammates.

    "Space was important for him and us," Kerr said Thursday. "We're trying to win games, and he's trying to put himself in a position to come back."

    Green lost a total of just under $2 million while serving the suspension, saving Golden State nearly $9 million on their projected luxury tax bill, according to ESPN's Bobby Marks.

    The Warriors have gone 7-5 during Green's 12 games away from the team. Overall, Golden State is 10-10 this season when Green hasn't been available (due to injury or suspension) and is 7-8 in his 15 games played.

    More likely his opponents have CTE at this point.

    Clearly GSW has no chance of winning without Draymond, Silver will not risk GSW missing the playoffs and the ad revenue they bring in.

    Yeah so...Is it just me or is it odd for an NBA commissioner to say "I won't let you retire."

    Like I'm fine with the "It's a very rash decision, sleep on it some more," etc etc but that "I won't let you retire..." bit is concerning for me. Why should he care? This kind of stuff is why people believe the league wants certain teams to win.

    Exactly. I guarantee he wouldn't care if Daishen Nix wanted to retire.

    Well, if the conspiracy is real, that the league won't let GSW and LAL miss the playoffs, then the Rockets won't make the playoffs. Houston, Utah, Phoenix, and one of Sacramento/Dallas/New Orleans will be screwed.

    They could let LAL miss it for one year to make it look like they are not in a conspiracy......so it goes...
