The NBA Finals are in full swing and the Cleveland Cavaliers are desperately looking for any sort of advantage they can get now that they're down 3-1 in the series. It seems they might have caught a break going back to Oakland as the NBA has just announced Draymond Green will be suspended for Game 5 on Monday.

Green was retroactively given a Flagrant 1 foul for his actions against LeBron James in Game 4 and that was his fourth of the postseason. That means Green automatically is suspended for the next game and most non-Warriors fans would say it's about time.

Green has seemingly gone out of his way to land a few hits below the belt the past couple rounds of the Playoffs and now he is paying the price for it. While most people don't believe the Cavs can come back from the 3-1 deficit, this should surely give them an advantage in the game on Monday and give them a chance to bring the deficit to 3-2 heading back to Cleveland.

Although Green isn't the top scorer for the Warriors he does a lot of other things for them:

He also creates mismatches since he is a forward who can play very much like a guard and defend multiple positions. Now both teams will have a day to plan for a game without Green's services.
