Draymond Green's temper tantrums spilled into the 2016 Playoffs

The Warriors leader and arguably best player ranks #1 in most fouls
In 2015-16 season, Draymond was #3 in the league in Technical fouls
The previous season (14-15), Draymond was #6

Green, who went into the playoffs saying "I will try to limit any discussions with referees to avoid racking up technicals" couldn't hold back and continued to throw up his arms in disgust for nearly the entire playoffs
It all started where he racked up 2 techs in the Rockets series, following with 2 more techs in the Portland series
Draymond was treading a fine line, where 7 technicals get you suspended for a game.
But things started to only tumble worse
-First it was the flying knee to Steven Adams groin

-This unsportsmanlike blow caused the media/fans to take note of Draymonds actions under a microscope. No tech/flag was called as one should of been
-The following game later, a brutal kick to Adams groin, again

-While everyone thought he would receive a flagarant 2 and be ejected, he didn't. The NBA the following day ruled him with a Technical foul for his actions.
A foul is considered flagrant when it involves excessive or violent contact that could injure the fouled player. A flagrant foul may be unintentional or purposeful
-Along with many more Groin attacks with no consequences

-Green was up to 5 techs going into the Finals
-Finals, Game 4, Green intentionally threw a punch at Lebron James, again in the groin

The fans, media, NBA had no choice but to take action on such unsportsmanlike behavior
Green was given a more than necessary Flagarant and by rule, due to 7 technical fouls, he was suspended 1 game.
When Kevin Love was injured for his concussion in gm5, Lebron James stepped up to carry the load and lead his team to a win
When Draymond was out, Stephen Curry failed to carry the load and lead his team to a blowout loss on his homecourt
Following the Finals, Green was arrested on assault charges for getting into a fight with a college student. Again unable to keep his cool
In conclusion:
1. Draymond Green is one of the top dirties players in the league and continues with his actions year after year
2. Green, regardless of suspension threat, makes bad decisions on/off the court
3. Has a loud mouth, constantly taunting other players and getting away with it
4. The league continued to give Green passes in the OKC series so they wouldn't lose (knowing that Draymond is the best GSW player)
5. Green let his team down when he received his flagrant, knowing that Curry couldn't lead a team past Cleveland by himself
