The history between Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green is a fascinating subplot to this series. So naturally, I asked Barnes if he cared to unpack it all.

Today’s pod is live:
@EJ_Stewart and I discuss the Knicks Game 2 loss in Cleveland…. Should Randle have been on the floor late in the 4th… How will NY bounce back in Game 3 … and, out in a Golden State, should Draymond Green have been suspended?? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ora… – 3:00 PM
Salman Ali @SalmanAliNBA
Couple thoughts listening to The Lowe Post:
-The Warriors grumbling about Sabonis’ physicality has to be parody.
-Are both Lowe and Spears really rationalizing Draymond stomping on this guy’s chest?
We all saw the video. Does this suspension really need to be explained? – 2:52 PM
Eddie Sefko @ESefko
I’m tired of the talk shows asking if Draymond should have been suspended. Of course he should have. What does the NBA look like if he wasn’t? Yes, Sabonis initiated things, but that’s basketball. If you know your opponent has a weakness, physical or emotional, you exploit it. – 1:40 PM
Brian Geltzeiler @BGeltzNBA
I think the Draymond suspension is warranted and I like the fact that the league office invoked Draymond’s track record. It’s a pattern of behavior and he’s been in denial a long time about it and the Warriors have continued to enable him. – 1:26 PM
Chris Broussard @Chris_Broussard
Should Draymond have been suspended? Is it time to worry about the Warriors? Will future generations think LeBron > Jordan? & more! Guests: @EphraimSalaam @anthonyVslater @martinweiss

Hilarious how many are “harmed” Draymond yelled at a crowd. The stomp I get. But egging on a crowd? No birds flipped?
“HOW COULD HE!”
Preferring humility is fine. But the NBA ain’t a decorum pageant
“BUT ADAM WAS THERE!”
Careful. Don’t slip on those pearls lol – 12:19 PM

NBA exec Joe Dumars hung up the phone at 2:30 a.m. after the Kings-Warriors Game 2. Was back in the office at 7:30 a.m. Tuesday. By end of the day, the NBA suspended Draymond Green one game. Dumars explains the decision, including nothing more for Sabonis: usatoday.com/story/sports/n… – 12:02 PM
Tim Reynolds @ByTimReynolds
NBA’s Joe Dumars to AP on Draymond: “There was much discussion, and back and forth, looking at the play itself over and over. And then ultimately we came to the decision that the act itself, and repeat offenses, actually did warrant a suspension.” apnews.com/article/warrio… – 10:37 AM
Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn
NBA Executive VP Joe Dumars tells ESPN on Draymond Green punishment: “Here’s what it came down to: Excessive and over-the-top actions, conduct detrimental and a repeat offender. That’s what separates this where you end up with a suspension.” Story soon on ESPN. – 10:32 AM
Kamenetzky Brothers @KamBrothers
My guess is the antics to the crowd cemented Draymond’s suspension. Any plausible explanation presenting the stomp as heat of the moment went out the window. That was Draymond saying, “Hell yeah, I did it, and IDGAF what you think!” But you can’t be the victim *and* the heel. AK – 3:52 AM
Nate Duncan @NateDuncanNBA
Analogy I just made on the pod re Draymond suspension: It’s like a bad call at the end of a tight game. Yes, the call wasn’t great, but you also had so many chances to avoid putting yourself in that position. So it’s ultimately on you that you lost the game. – 2:04 AM
Sam Amick @sam_amick
There’s a Giants game at Oracle Park on Thursday – just sayin’. It would be quite apropos for Draymond to reenact his 2016 Finals experience in Oakland and catch a nearby baseball game during Game 3 in SF. Maybe Bob Myers will roll by again. – 1:15 AM
Jason Dumas @JDumasReports
With Dray out on Thursday, there will be an even bigger onus on the Warriors’ role players to produce.
Game 2
JP – 4 pts, 1/7
JoKu – 0 pts, 0/0
Donte – 0 pts, 0/0
4 combined TOs.
None played in the 4th quarter. Here’s what Steph, Klay, Dray and Steve had to say about that. pic.twitter.com/AN60bUCYh0 – 1:10 AM

Kylen Mills @KylenMills
Draymond Green was wrong to stomp on Sabonis and he needs to stop the antics, but it is wild to me Draymond got the same punishment as Dillon Brooks for breaking Gary Payton II’s elbow in the Western semis, forcing him to miss a month. #dubnation – 12:55 AM
Kylen Mills @KylenMills
Charles Barkley said on Inside the NBA that he thinks Draymond Green’s suspension is in part due to the fact that he ran around and incited the crowd after being ejected. He points out that NBA Commissioner Adam Silver was there watching the game in person. #dubnation – 12:44 AM
Kylen Mills @KylenMills
“If you don’t grab his leg, that never happens.”

Domantas Sabonis is questionable for Game 3 with a sternum contusion, per Kings. Announcement comes about an hour after news of Draymond Green’s suspension for Game 3. – 12:42 AM

Jason Anderson @JandersonSacBee
X-rays show Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis suffered a sternum contusion when Draymond Green stomped on him in Monday’s game against the Golden State Warriors. Sabonis will be listed as questionable for Game 3. – 12:35 AM

Domantas Sabonis questionable for Game 3, despite saying last night that he’ll be fine and will play. Imaging shows he suffered a sternum contusion after being stomped on by Draymond Green. pic.twitter.com/cupzfYvmvc – 12:35 AM
Tim Reynolds @ByTimReynolds
Kings say Domantas Sabonis sustained a sternum contusion during the fourth quarter (presumably the Draymond play) on Monday and will be listed as questionable for Thursday’s game versus the Warriors. – 12:35 AM
Sam Amick @sam_amick
Kings announce that Domantas Sabonis “sustained a sternum contusion” as a result of the Draymond Green stomp. He is listed as questionable for Game 3 against the Warriors on Thursday. – 12:34 AM
Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_Johnson
Sabonis being hit with technical foul really made me feel like a fine was all that would be next for Draymond. A suspension is surprising – 12:12 AM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Steve Kerr could go a ton of directions to replace Draymond Green in starting lineup
*Jordan Poole (juice the offense)
*Gary Payton II (juice the defense)
*Jonathan Kuminga (activate him with bigger role)
*Donte DiVincenzo (regular spot starter)
*Moses Moody (big role last night) – 11:57 PM
Michael Lee @MrMichaelLee
The NBA suspending Draymond Green for a playoff game feels more excessive than his using Domantas Sabonis as a trampoline. – 11:57 PM
Chris Palmer @ChrisPalmerNBA
Sabonis got away like a thief in the night: tech + $2000 fine. Draymond out. Might be the series. – 11:56 PM

According to the NBA’s press release, Draymond Green’s suspension for Game 3 “was based in part on Green’s history of unsportsmanlike acts.”
I’m not sure if a reputation suspension is fair here… – 11:46 PM
Nick Wright @getnickwright
ABSOLUTELY on the board, and in fact quite likely, that Draymond only has a couple games left as a Warrior. – 11:44 PM
Michael Scotto @MikeAScotto
Warriors forward Draymond Green has been suspended Game 3 for stepping on the chest of Kings center Domantas Sabonis. “The suspension was based in part on Green’s history of unsportsmanlike acts,” the NBA said. pic.twitter.com/yia5oIe2te – 11:44 PM
Adam Spolane @AdamSpolane
Quite a season for Draymond Green. Punches a teammate in the face and then gets himself ejected from one playoff game and suspended for another. – 11:43 PM
Sean Cunningham @SeanCunningham
Joe Dumars, NBA’s Executive VP of Basketball Operations, announced the suspension for Draymond Green for stepping on Draymond Green, but also noted “the suspension was based in part on Green’s history of unsportsmanlike acts.” – 11:43 PM

Draymond Green has been suspended for Game 3.
The Warriors trail the Kings, 0-2, in their first round playoff series. – 11:42 PM
Kurt Helin @basketballtalk
NBA has suspended Draymond Green for one game for stepping on the chest of Domantas Sabonis. He will not play in Game 3.
The Warriors are down 0-2 in the series to the Kings, game 3 is a virtual must win. – 11:41 PM
Ben Rohrbach @brohrbach
Wow, Draymond Green suspended for Game 3.

Mark Kreidler @MarkKreidler
I wrote about Draymond being an ass. Because it’s on Substack, you’ll likely get a fake warning from twitter that it’s an unsafe link. It’s not. That’s just twitter being small. You can’t like or retweet it. I do not care. Just go read. It’s free. markkreidler.substack.com/p/hes-an-ass-i… – 5:43 PM
Matt George @MattGeorgeSAC
That being said, keeping a close eye on Draymond & Sabonis the rest of the series will be fun. The heat turns up in the Playoffs. Warriors backs are against the wall. And Mike Brown says the Kings are going to keep attacking. – 4:37 PM
Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
It is looking unlikely Warriors forward Draymond Green will be suspended for Game 3 vs. Kings after stepping on Domantas Sabonis when Sabonis grabbed his leg on Monday night, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. – 4:29 PM

Kristian Winfield @Krisplashed
After watching multiple replays and angles of the Draymond Green stomp on Domantas Sabonis, I don’t think Sabonis grabbed Draymond’s leg maliciously enough to even remotely warrant that stomp. That man lost his mind. – 2:44 PM
Dalton Johnson @DaltonJ_Johnson
“That’s exciting, right? A new challenge.”
Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green are in their 28th playoff series together. They’ve never been down 0-2. The Warriors’ dynasty started with them, and they’re fighting to keep it alive nbcsports.com/bayarea/warrio… – 12:53 PM

The Draymond Stomp overshadowed the real reason GSW blew Game 2 — 33 mins from Poole/DDV/Kuminga, 1-7 FG, 3 TO.
I led my 3/16 pod w/ this topic: GSW’s front office failed Curry. It’s just a fact. If this were LeBron, it would be First Take’s #1 topic. apple.news/Au647kcj1SmWzU… – 11:45 AM
