It was not the start that Draymond Green wanted on Christmas Day against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In the games opening sequence, Green was whistled for two personal fouls — the second one was very questionable where Green left his hands straight in the air on a drive DeAndre Liggins. Here’s the video.

Green argued the second foul call, was whistled for a technical and had to be restrained by teammates near the Golden State bench. It was Green’s seventh technical of the 2016-17 season.
Of course Green was suspended for Game 5 of last year’s NBA Finals against the Cavaliers, a game Cleveland used as a springboard to win the title.
