2. The Warriors Blow A 3-1 Lead
In case you haven’t heard: The Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2016 NBA Finals. And it’s all thanks to Draymond Green, who fell for the LeBron James’ obvious efforts to get the Warriors’ defensive stopper to retaliate physically. Retaliate he did: Dray punched LeBron in the nuts, earning a suspension for Game 5. Without Golden State’s best defensive player, the Cavs managed to steal the road game before taking Game 6 at home, setting up one of the most memorable games in NBA Finals history.
