LeBron James and Draymond Green got into it in the waning minutes of Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday night.
The two players got tangled up when James was setting a screen, and Green ended up hitting the deck as a result. Things were OK even up to that point, but then James elected to step right over Green, which is a disrespectful thing to do.
Green reacted and threw a slap in the direction of James’ groin, and also apparently called him a “b*tch.”
According to a source familiar with the spat between LeBron James and Draymond Green, the trigger word was DG calling James a "b*tch"

Both players were hit with personal fouls, and that was the end of that. However, the league will be taking a look at this sequence of events, and if they deem it to be a flagrant foul, that would warrant a suspension for Green.
