Only a few days ago, the Golden State Warriors had a 3-1 dominant advantage in a first-round playoff series against the Houston Rockets.
On Friday, the Warriors saw that the leadership dissolved as the Rockets remained in a 6-game victory to tie the postseason series of the West Conference in 3-3.
But the hard game was tarnished by the last hard foul of Draymond Green.

The referees whistled Green just three minutes from the first quarter after they dirty the Rockets guard, Jalen Green. The four -time NBA champion tried to establish a screen for Steph Curry when it was mixed with the green of the rocks.
Video repetitions seemed to show the Warriors star contacting Green’s head while trying to unravel from the Rockets guard. Golden State’s Green begged his case with the referees after listening to the whistle, but the officials quickly evaluated the Warriors forward with an offensive foul.
After a review, the officials determined that the offensive fault should change to a flagrant fault.

The call granted the 23 -year -old rock star a journey to the foul line, where he made his two free kick attempts. Houston also received the next possession.

The two players also had an exchange shortened in the series. Moments after the Warriors won a 104-93 victory in game 3, Draymond seemed to make fun of Jalen. Other Warriors and Rockets players finally intervened.
Draymond finished the game with 7 points and was 0-4 beyond the three-point line. Houston’s Green pointed out the less than stellar 3 star of the Warriors star at a press conference after the game.

“Just speaking,” said Jalen Green in reference to the shortened time. “You really can’t do much more, so talking is your only way.”
Draymond also evaluated a flagrant foul in game 4 of the series after shooting on Tari Eason and seemed to kick the rockets forward.
Game 7 will be played on Sunday night in Houston.
