Matt Barnes Explodes Over Warriors Suspension: “LeBron Knows – He Didn’t Need To Step Over That Man Like That!”

NBA veteran Matt Barnes has shared his thoughts on the controversy surrounding Golden State Warriors’ Draymond Green NBA Finals Game 5 suspension.

The ex-Warriors star came to Green’s defense and blasted the NBA for its series-changing decision.

ESPN personality Stephen A Smith also lit up the NBA for its hefty punishment.

I am DONE with the NBA on this. Draymond Green suspended? Hiding behind a Flagrant 1. This is some straight BS. Absolute TRAVESTY!

— Stephen A Smith (@stephenasmith) June 12, 2016

The NBA’s decision to suspect Green stemmed from a Game 4 incident with Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James.

According to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, along with missing the game, Green is not allowed to be at the arena. The Warriors lead the Cavaliers 3-1 with a chance to win the championship on their home floor in Oakland, California, Monday night. That means, if the Warriors win, even without Green, he can’t be there for the championship celebration. (Yahoo! Finance)
