LBJ is the best player in the NBA no doubt and CLE deserved to win

The League suspending Green changed the complexion of the series, gave life to CLE and allowed LBJ and Kyrie to take over. Once CLE gained their confidence it was enough of a difference to propel forward with an unprecedented come back from down 3-1.

I firmly believe if Green plays game 5, GSW wins in five

GSW still lost game 7 at home with him.

They may have won without that suspension though.

Green needs to check his flagrant foul count next time.

Green scored 32 tonight at home and they still lost. Cleavland was a better team.

True.

Maybe green will learn from this and avoid delivering nut shots to everyone he guards.

You're not wrong, and Green deserves a frick ton of heat for it.

Being a dumbass for the entire playoffs may have cost his team a championship. Getting 4 flagrant fouls in 25 or so games is your own fault.

Maybe the Splash Bros. need to bring it when it matters like Draymond does.

How can you say that? Green didn't dominate every game he played in this series. Matter of fact he had more off nights than good nights. So who knows what would of happend. I don't think it would have mattered. The Cavs were destined to win it all this year.

I do think they win game 5 if Green played but they had two other chances to win one game and they just were not in rhythm on offense and losing Bogut fricked their D.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda.

They still had green for the last two games and they still lost. Cleveland was the better team and rightfully won.

Glad Green lost. Should be a good lesson to not be such a piece of shite.

If it ended in game five there is no Bogut injury, no Iggy back spasms and Kyrie and LBJ don't take over like they did in 5-6-7

Part of what allowed Kyrie to take off was the defensive changes they had to make without Green in 5. Then losing Bogut and Iggy getting hurt was too much to overcome with LBJ and Kyrie going to another level.

I won't say green deserved to be suspended but he is a dirty MFer so it wasn't surprising

All in all CLE beat them and deserved to win. I just don't think it gets that far if they go back to Oak down 3-1 and Green plays in Game 5

Cautionary tale of putting yourself ahead of the team.

If you're a professional you control your emotions.

Well Bogut got hurt in Game 5 itself and Kyrie and LeBron went off in that game as well. I know you'll argue Green would have stopped that, but LeBron went for 41 in Game 6 against Green as well.
