A day later, the great NBA debate was about suspension. Of belief, and of Draymond Green, after everyone reflexively went nuts about the Golden State star’s kick to the groin of Oklahoma City’s Steven Adams in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals.
It was a move that seemed to spark a Thunderous tail-kicking of the defending champs, not to mention arguments about deciphering intent as NBA officials spent much of Monday deciding Green’s fate.
But it’s one that also rebooted the discussion about bad acts and bad acting, two habitual problems the league has yet to kick.
