So we’ve seen Draymond and LeBron show out in the NBA post season. But what if we got to see them square off in a boxing ring?
(Video) NBA: Klay Says LeBron Got His Feelings Hurt After Draymond’s Suspension; LeBron Responds
On Sunday the league announced that Draymond Green received a flagrant foul and LeBron James received a technical foul for an incident that happened between them during Game 4. Since it was Green’s fourth flagrant foul in the postseason, he was suspended for Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Many assumed it was LeBron’s complaining that pushed the league to suspend Draymond; he previously hit Steven Adams in the groin twice as well as others but hitting LeBron was the final straw. LeBron also complained that Draymond called him a word – reportedly “bi–h” – that was very disrespectful. During the press conference for the upcoming game, Klay Thompson said LeBron got his feelings hurt. LeBron said he’s going to continue to take the high road.
(Video) NBA: Lebron On Altercation With Draymond “The Words That Came Out Of His Mouth Were A Little Bit Overboard”
During the fourth quarter of last night’s game, Lebron James and Draymond Green got into a small altercation that Lebron seemed to not want to let go of. Draymond even tried to walk away but Bron kept jawing at him. From watching the videos, it started when Lebron tried to step over Green as he laid on the court and he didn’t like that so he gave Lebron a cheap shot below the belt and apparently said something to really set Lebron off. During the post game presser, Bron explained with some details as to what happened.

Lebron finished with basically a triple double tonight, ending with 25 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists but his numbers really didn’t impact the game. He was passive most of the night and didn’t show up big when needed. Perhaps that’s why he almost let his frustration get the best of him during an altercation with Draymond Green in the fourth quarter.
(Video) NBA: LeBron Won’t Even Let Steph Curry Score After the Whistle; Blocks His Dunk Attempt
Game 3 was a “must win” for the Cleveland Cavaliers as they avoided going down to the dreaded 0-3 in the NBA Finals. LeBron James was locked in, putting up 32 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists in the Cavs 120-90 win over the Golden State Warriors. They applied pressure on MVP Stephen Curry, limiting him to just two-points in the first half. They wouldn’t even let up on him during a deadball. In the third quarter after the whistle blew, Curry went up for a dunk but was blocked by James.
