Draymond Green, the Warriors’ All-Star power forward, was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor assault early Sunday in downtown East Lansing, Mich., after slapping a basketball fan who was taunting him at a nightclub, a source with knowledge of the investigation and police there said.

Green, 26, was arrested around 2:30 a.m. after an altercation in the busy business district with numerous bars and restaurants, said East Lansing police Lt. Scott Wriggelsworth. A source close to the investigation told The Chronicle that Green slapped a taunting fan at a nightclub.

The male victim, who was not identified, was not injured, said Wriggelsworth, who would not elaborate on the circumstances of the altercation....

“We are aware of news involving Draymond Green in Michigan over the weekend. At this point, we are collecting information and will have no further comment until we have a better understanding of the situation,” the Warriors said in a statement Monday.

I'll bet the guy was wearing a LeGroin jersey. As you will recall, it was LeGroin's taunting of Draymond that led to LeGrab and the subsequent disaster.

2. Taunting and alcohol, not a good mix ...

throw in a short fuse and you get this result.

Green (and whoever else was with him) should know he's a target and to run, not walk, from any and all conflict.

BTW ... anger management is your friend, Draymond.

4. And his kick to the nuts in the Thunder series?

Or his tackle in the series with the Rockets? Fuck Draymon Green. He's a scumbag piece of shit who should have been suspended for either of his first two assaults and then a lengthy ban for the third.

5. But he was not suspended for either of his first two assaults.

Because neither player has the access to the media, broadcast, print and social, that LeGroin does. He basically shamed the league into suspending Draymond.

6. But he was warned

He should have learned to take it easy.

He should have been suspended for the Thunder series. He was lucky and frankly so were the Warriors!!!

3. Draymond needs to be smarter.

Any altercation can escalate into something much worse. A guy like him shouldn't be staying out late and getting with the wrong crowd. Hire bodyguards and let them take care of everything. I hope that Steph, Klay, Kevin, etc. have a word with him.
