Or an asterisk.

These are grown men being paid millions to play a professional sport. If a player can't control his emotions/temper, he and his team deserve to be penalized for it. This is part of the risk/reward of having a guy like Draymond/JR. The difference is that JR stayed composed throughout the playoffs and Draymond did not. He kicked players too many times and accumulated flagrant points. He wasn't suspended for one punch, it was for all of the flagrant fouls in the playoffs. Saying your team would have won if a player didn't get suspended is like saying you would have won if a player didn't foul out. Tough luck, deal with it. Next time, hope said player isn't a short tempered bonehead. It's not an excuse and doesn't come close to say losing your 2nd and 3rd best players for a series

He should've been suspended more than 1 game tbh. He kicked players on numerous occasions and didn't get a flagrants. He's lucky to play in a soft era. In previous eras he would've been retaliated against much stronger than just stepping over him.

And also should've received a warning for flopping, right before Lebron stepped over him. Only reason he was on the floor is he flopped.

Should have been suspended for 3 games after the kick on Adams. Warriors shouldn't have been in the finals honestly
