Draymond Green said he didn’t mean to kick Steven Adams in the groin on Sunday, even though it’s the second time he’s done it this series.
Well, Russell Westbrook isn’t buying it. Check out what he said about the kick after the game.

He has a good point. Adams has been known to get under opposing players’ skin, and the fact that the same act happened in consecutive games does make it look purposeful. Green literally karate kicked Adams right in the groin.
Steph Curry didn’t agree.

Neither did Steve Kerr, who actually wants Green’s flagrant foul call rescinded, which is almost laughable. The Warriors will be lucky if Green isn’t hit with a one-game suspension for the pivotal Game 4.
Have to side with Westy here — it sure looked intentional to me, watching the video clip both during and after the game.
