Warriors head coach Steve Kerr reacted to Green getting his fifth technical foul, which is two shy from a suspension.
“It’s part of Draymond. The same thing that makes him such a competitor and winner puts him over the top sometimes. We know that and it’s our job to help him stay poised.”
As for Draymond, he believes the refs are out to make him look like “an angry black person.”
“I’m not an angry black man. I’m a very successful, educated black man with a great family & I’m great at basketball, I’m great at what I do. The agenda to keep trying to make me look like an angry black man is crazy. I’m sick of it. It’s ridiculous.”
