The conversation about Draymond Green not receiving a suspension from the league for kicking Steven Adams in the groin is still going strong as Game 4 approaches tonight.

Fans and members of the media have taken their sides, arguing either why Green shouldn't be on the floor tonight, or why the league office made the right call.

If Draymond is issued another flagrant foul tonight or at any point during the rest of the postseason, it won't be a matter of opinion anymore: Green will be suspended.

Once the postseason begins, technical and flagrant foul totals from the regular season are thrown out, and a new count begins. Green first received a flagrant-1 on this play in Game 3 of the first round against the Houston Rockets.

There was no call at the time, but the league office assessed Green with the flagrant-1 the following day.

Then, you have the incident with the Thunder‘s Steven Adams.

The low kick from Draymond earned him a flagrant-1 during Game 3, but after further review, the league office again made a change, charging Green with a flagrant-2.

That gives him a total of 3 flagrant foul points in the 2016 playoffs. Ira Winderman shows us that another flagrant-1 from Green would indeed earn him a one-game suspension. A flagrant-2 would be two games.

The same scenario applies to Bismack Biyombo of the Toronto Raptors. Kevin Durant has a little more wiggle room.

Green will have to be on his best behavior to make sure the NBA and tonight's officials don't find any reason to dock him with another flagrant. Otherwise, there won't be any question about a suspension this time.
