    Good luck tonight Sacramento. Know that every Rockets fan stands with you. Know that you're not just playing for yourself and your city, but for me. You're playing for every Rockets fan who was robbed in 2018. You're playing for Harden's eyes, for Ja's knee, for Brandon Clarke, for Steven Adams, for everyone who has been a victim. I have gone from watching 50+ games a year to watching maybe 2, and tonight is a chance to save the soul of the sport that i once loved so dearly. Bury those ****s tonight and end it.

    The only valid Worriers complaint that I've heard goes as follows:
    * Draymond deserved a flagrant 2 and ejection. That was punishment and arguably contributed to the Worriers losing game 2.
    * Giving him a suspension on top is like a double punishment.

    Yeah, I can hear that, and it makes sense. I heard Howard Beck on the radio this morning saying a similar thing. As if Draymond just got a lifetime achievement award basically. Haha.

    I have no sympathy for him though, and every NBA game that does not have him is better for it.

    I would imagine that the suspension is as much a result of his taunting the fans and acting like a lunatic as it was the foul itself.

    any Warriors-Rockets game 7 footage is very triggering

    JJ Redick has no shame whatsoever

    GS gets a few calls to go against them for the 1st time ever, and now it’s a national topic of conversation :rolleyes:

    meanwhile Rockets fans were told to just shut up and worry about all the missed threes instead

    The above tweet is the first time I've ever been able to watch footage from that game and I'm angry all over again.

    Adam Silver was apparently in the stands that night so that probably ensured he got the suspension.

    **** the Warriors. Andrew Bogut literally said the refs let him get away with **** at GSW he couldn't get away with anywhere else. I hate them more than Utah.

    Yup. I thought the malone/stockton jazz were completely untouchable as far as my hate for them but the warriors have blown them away, it's insane

    I believe there's enough evidence, give Green's record of similar past offenses, to think he was intentionally trying to injure Sabonis and remove him from the series. For me, an ejection plus a one-game suspension is too short. I think it should have been 3 games minimum. Do to Draymond what he was trying to do to an opposing player.

    I would love to be able to appreciate Steph and Klay's shooting talents because they're truly phenomenal, both in the conversation for GOAT at that particular skill. But Green and the favoritism shown to them by the NBA completely poisons the whole package.
