<The Kings saw two moments in the fourth quarter as the game-changers. One was for the players, and one was for the coaching staff.
For the coaches, it was when Monk told them to stop complaining to the officials and just let the game play out.
For the players, it was three minutes into the fourth quarter when Warriors forward Draymond Green, coming off a five-game suspension, got hit with a technical foul for arguing with the officials -- a call he seemed to be seeking out.
On the ensuing play, Green intentionally committed a foul, and Warriors coach Steve Kerr immediately pulled him from the game to keep things from escalating.
"That definitely was the momentum we needed with them slipping up right there," Monk said. "[Coach Mike Brown] had been telling us the whole game to stay with it. That something was going to happen.">

Did he really elbow him though? From the replay I saw, it looked like Draymond completely flopped and there wasn't much contact.

Yeah that was a complete flop. Draymond confirmed biggest crybully in the league. Literally zero contact.

Total flop, if you get hit in the side of the face you don't fall backwards head first and you cover where your hit.

There are other angles that show there was about a six inch gap between draymond's unfortunate face and any part of Lyles.

Should actually be a foul on draymond's face for being so ugly.
Yep. Classic bully behavior from him. That's where you love having dudes like Trey, Javale, Len and even Sasha. They aren't going to get punked

I mean we can just pretend he actually did elbow him in the face so we can feel good about it I guess. Is that what we're going with?

Haha...give an Oscar to Steph too for kicking out his legs. Give one to Chris Paul, the king of flop (with a special presentation by Fox). I'm sure he'll collect multiple ones if he was in the game. Him and Marcus Smart are biggest flippers in the NBA world.

Sweet! She had some 3500 dollar seats there. Wish I could afford those!

Let’s go ahead and get that extension done. This guy is a dawg! We can’t lose him from our bench. Great game King!
Can't extend his contract, only three+ year long contracts are eligible.

There you go with the “facts” again.
Re-Sign him then…whatever it takes.Similar threads
