Steven Adams and Draymond Green can’t quit fighting each other

The newest NBA rivalry is going strong to the very end of the Western Conference Finals.

Draymond Green and Steven Adams have history. Green hit Adams with a knee to the groin in Game 2 and followed it with an even more pronounced kick below the belt in Game 3. For his part, Adams said Green has “peaked with annoyingness.“ The Western Conference Finals couldn’t end without one more chapter in our new favorite NBA rivalry.

Green and Adams got tangled up late in the second quarter. Green hit the floor hard (possibly with his head), but it looks like he might have grabbed Adams’ arm and pulled him down. The Golden State crowd, meanwhile, was chanting for an Adams ejection.
