Draymond Green grabs Aaron Gordon’s leg and tries to trip him

Draymond Green played in his first playoff closeout game in three years, last night. In 2019, Draymond Green did not get the outcome that he desired. Already, Draymond Green felt like the Warriors let one title get away in 2016. With 2019, Draymond Green felt the same way, as the Warriors managed to push it to six games in spite of being injured.

Draymond Green wound up being the Warriors’ only healthy player in the 2020 season. Kevin Durant left for Brooklyn, during the 2019 offseason. Klay Thompson was ruled out for the season, which left Steph Curry as the Warriors’ only star. With Draymond Green out there with the young guys, the Warriors imploded, falling to the NBA’s worst record.

Draymond Green was joined by a rejuvenated Steph Curry, last season. Curry played like an MVP and got the Warriors back into the postseason. However, the Warriors missed the official playoffs, losing in the play-in to the Lakers and the Grizzlies. Through half of this season, the Warriors matched the Phoenix Suns with the league’s best record, but injuries slowed them down.

Draymond Green has played enforcer, getting chippy with Aaron Gordon in the Denver Nuggets first round playoff series. In Game 4, Draymond Green and Aaron Gordon nearly got into a fight. Last night, Aaron Gordon threw the ball at Draymond, after he fell. As a result, Draymond Green grabbed his leg, and tried to drag him to the ground.
