Stephen A. Smith Tears Into Officials For Draymond Green’s Dramatic Ejection

The NBA Playoffs have plenty of drama.

Warrior star Draymond Green was ejected for a Flagrant 2 foul during Game 1 of the Golden State Warriors-Memphis Grizzlies series Sunday afternoon. The decision to determine the foul ejection-worthy was certainly controversial and ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith was not having it.

At halftime of the game, Stephen A. Smith went off on the officials for the decision. He called it “utterly ridiculous.”

No doubt that could be deemed a Flagrant 1, but it was almost certainly not worth Draymond getting tossed.

Either way the Warriors won the game, so no harm no foul.
