Draymond Green 'Clotheslines' LeBron

Happened last night.  It's not 'clotheslining', in my opinion, since Green's arm was below LeBron's shoulders (in fact, his arm went underneath LeBron's arm).  Nevertheless, it was a ridiculously flagrant foul.  Green clearly ran in front of LeBron, made no attempt at all at the ball and then, just to make it even easier for the league office, went to the sidelines and mocked LeBron's fall, like it was a flop.    

In the old days, Green's arm would have been at LeBron's shoulder level, like McHale and Rambis.  And in the old days, Tristan Thompson would knock Green's head off, like he was playing T-ball, in an ensuing play.  Nowadays, Richard Jefferson gets in Green's face and that's it.  On the other hand, Green's takedown of LeBron IS old school, no-free-layups, no-breakaways basketball.

I'm expecting a suspension for this, it was kind of dangerous and a blatant cheap shot and players have been suspended for less than this.  Not the first time Green has done shit like this, of course, he missed a key playoff game last year because of his repeated bad behavior.

how long was the queen down for? you have to admit, even though Green deserves whatever he gets, the drama queen of all drama queens will make a movie out of this!!

Clothesline? Lol.

For the record last sat. Morning my wife hit me harder than lebum got hit after she found the fake snake I put in between the covers.

What a wuss... (not my wife, I mean lebum)

Matty,

If she couldn't immediately tell the difference between the fake snake and the real one you are a much more impressive man than I am.

This was another dirty play by the dirtiest player in the league.
Green received a flagrant foul and deserves a 1 game suspension.

Lebron acted very professionally after that hit.
Green would have blown his top if Lebron did that to him.

Lebron is a top 5 player of all time.
For that reason, many people are jealous and hate him.

It was a porcelain type of material that looked just like a decent sized coiled rattlesnake.

Had it since I was a small kid as it was a gift from my grandmother aND it had been in storage for a decade till recently so she had never seen it. (Kudos to grandma for the gifts that keep giving)

And d @MN that girl can hit! L. James would be hospitalized at the least.

Hi,
I just watched that clip.
IMO, barely flagrant 1. LJ did a very good acting of being shot in the head. Good for him - DG's got punished. But I'd save this drama for the finals - this was just a regular season game and the drama was pointless especially considering the score at the time and the final score.

dboss, now that was a clothes line!!!!!!!!!!! McHale got him good, these guys today are such wimps!!!

Maybe we will see another Lebron James in the league in 7 or 8 years...???

TJ, I totally agree that Green is a cheap shot player who repeatedly endangers the well being of others. Also, LeBron is one of the All Time great players, and he deserves our respect.
