They All Fall Down

Two things today.  In Game 4 of the NBA Finals Draymond Green must have been jawing all night because it got to LeBron.  And because of that, Green was suspended (it's about time, his reputation proves this was a long time coming).  Warrior fans were brutal to James in Game 5.  Posters of James with a pacifier in his mouth.  Several well respected friends of mine who tote Steph Curry as a stand up, class act, never screw up dude were trashing LeBron.  Calling him a whiner and a crybaby. Whatever.  Haters.  :-).  The guy may get a little whiny on the court, but none of us know what's going down there.

Oh.  But wait.  What happened to Curry in Game 6?  Throws his mouthguard into the stands?  Whines and cusses out the ref?  Because he got fouled out?  Who's whining now?  Who's the class act now?  YOU ARE THE MVP OF THE LEAGUE.  You threw your mouthguard into the stands.  You might as well spit on the fans.  That's disgusting.  And you can't even leave gracefully.

That all being said.  Both James and Curry seem like they are great role models.  How much trouble off the court have either of them gotten in?  None as far as I know.  Both exceptional athletes and sportsmen.  Both MVP's.  Now we have a Game 7.  I just wish people would stop picking apart how players respond on the court to fouls and questionable calls.  Their adrenaline is high, the competition is fierce.  Put you in their shoes...you'd probably shit your pants.

Looking forward to Game 7 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night.
