For Draymond Greenhis Warriors had “ need a juice “. As the Pelicans escaped at the end of the first period, the California interior fouled Brandon Ingram, with the shoulder, in transition. A gesture that the NOLA winger and his teammates did not appreciate.
Assessment of the start of the scuffle: a technical fault to each of the two main protagonists, in addition to a flagrant level 1 fault finally distributed to the Warriors player. It is above all the 17th technical fault of the latter, already suspended a few days ago against the Hawks after his 16th such fault.
“ We were a little flat in terms of energy. Once the mistake was made, they started talking. It’s a big mistake but it’s not a dirty gesture where he is jumping for example. I touched him on the shoulder, then they started talking », describes the interior admitting to enjoying this kind of situation.
It must be said that on the next attack, Draymond Green ended up on Herb Jones, waving his legs. A new altercation which could have earned him a second technical fault… and therefore an expulsion.

In any case, he sees in this scene the illustration of a playoff atmosphere generated by a meeting with ” two teams fighting for the best place in the standings “.

He shouted at everyone, their bench, ours, me, and frankly we all deserved it “Says Steve Kerr, whose leader finished with 8 points (4/5 on shots), 12 assists and 6 rebounds in the victory.
If his gesture could have had a positive impact for his team at the time, it is less so financially for the player who will have to pay a fine of 5,000 dollars as provided for in the regulations. For the record, a player must pay a fine of $2,000 for each of the first five technical fouls committed during the season, then $3,000 for the next five and $4,000 for each of the 11th to 15th technical fouls.
