Draymond Green flopped and nearly kicked Kyrie Irving in the face

In Game 1 of the NBA Finals this Thursday, Draymond Green is kicking his legs again. On a pretty blatant flop (unless you think 190-pound Kyrie Irving can knock over 230-pound Green that easily), Green succeeded in nearly nailing Irving in the face with a flying foot. This is what earned him a flagrant-1 and nearly got him suspended for Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals after kicking Steven Adams directly in the groin. It surfaced after the play that Green has a tendency for kicking his legs all over the place in a supercut video showing his flailing. That's hardly a defense for it, though. This is dangerous to all parties.
