There were plenty of moments during the Golden State Warriors’ win over the New Orleans Pelicans that could’ve acted as an inflection point toward a lost season.
A struggling offense that couldn’t generate advantages whatsoever. A faltering defense that failed to get a consistent string of stops.
And probably the most crucial one of all: Draymond Green committing a flagrant foul on Brandon Ingram during the second quarter, getting assessed a technical foul, and almost getting another infraction on a charge call that would’ve sent him to the showers early.
No matter what anyone thinks of Green — brash, loud, overly emotional, etc.
