The Golden State Warriors had a great Sunday, as they bludgeoned the Houston Rockets in a 126-85 win in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals. As what the score suggests, the Warriors were in total control of the game which had Golden State doing Golden State things, including a Draymond Green technical foul.
Green was assessed with a technical foul in the fourth quarter when he had a brief exchange with Rockets forward Trevor Ariza. According to Chris Haynes of ESPN, the NBA has decided to not to cancel that call, meaning Green will have that technical foul stick to his record.

Green finished the game with 10 points, six assists, a steal, a block, and a whopping total of 17 rebounds in 37 minutes of action. He is averaging 11.7 points, 11.3 rebounds, and 8.5 assists per game so far in the playoffs.
