Draymond Green is dismissed as the Kings lead the Warriors 2-0 in the series. Will there be further punishment?

Draymond Green After losing to the Kings 114-106 on Monday in Sacramento, the Warriors are now 0-2 in a playoff series for the first time since 2007. What you need to know is as follows:

Golden State player Draymond Green was called for a Flagrant 2 penalty and removed after stomping on Kings forward Domantas Sabonis in the middle of the fourth quarter, setting up an uproar in the already-loud Golden 1 Centre. When Green was down on the floor, Sabonis grabbed his leg first and received a technical foul.

Stephen Curry of the Warriors finished first among scorers with 28 points, moving up to 18th all-time in NBA postseason scoring. On Monday, he made 9 of 21 field goals, including 3 of 13 from beyond the arc.

Sacramento was paced by Sabonis and De’Aaron Fox, who each scored 24 points. Off the bench, Malik Monk scored a whopping 18 points.

Are there any upcoming sanctions for Green?

Before being ejected, Draymond Green scored eight points on 3-of-6 shooting in 31 minutes. An emotional Draymond Green enraged the Sacramento fans while the officials evaluated the action. Green receives two points for the incident towards his four-point flagrant point total, which will result in a one-game suspension.

We’ll wait to see if Green receives any extra punishment for his foot stomping on Sabonis because the Warriors are currently in a significant hole. Adam Silver, the NBA commissioner, happened to be present.

Draymond Green is dismissed as the Kings

The fact that Joe Dumars, a former Kings executive and legendary player for the Pistons, is the NBA’s executive vice president and head of basketball operations adds a touch of irony to this situation. I’d be shocked if Draymond received a suspension, if I had to handicap the situation. But this has happened before.

What else did the Warriors do wrong?

A club that is not at all renowned for defence has stifled the Warriors’ offence. Golden State is at 29-for-90 from beyond the arc after two games. Curry is frequently the target of the Kings’ overly aggressive perimeter play, which forces other players to come up with offence. The Kings’ toughness and intensity were really effective.

Although the Warriors were effective inside, they are unable to match the Kings’ offensive output without shooting three-pointers. Against all of Sacramento’s attention, Curry shot 3-for-13.

All season long, the Warriors have had trouble travelling, especially when it counts. Their best opportunity to win this series is to dominate at home right now. This season, Chase Centre has been their only hope. — Thompson
