Draymond
Green
is
opening
up
about
his
NBA
suspension
and
revealing
that
he
debated
retiring
before
Adam
Silver
changed
his
mind.
After
being
handed
an
indefinite
suspension
by
the
NBA,
Draymond
Green
is
set
to
return
to
the
Golden
State
Warriors.
Reportedly
Green
was
subjected
to
a
month
of
counseling
before
he
was
reinstated
to
play.
His
suspension
comes
after
a
string
of
WWE-style
moves
on
his
opponents.
Additionally,
we
can’t
forget
about
his
falcon
punch
on
Jordan
Poole
which
seemingly
went
without
reprimand.
The
incident
that
called
for
accountability
involved
him
hitting
Jusuf
Nurkic
in
the
head.

It
could
have
been
an
accident
but
with
his
pattern
of
behavior,
he
doesn’t
get
the
benefit
of
the
doubt.
According
to
ESPN,
Green
revealed
during
his
suspension
he
was
overwhelmed
and
on
the
verge
of
retiring
before
NBA
Commissioner
Adam
Silver
changed
his
mind.
“I
told
him,
‘Adam
this
is
too
much
for
me.
…
This
is
too
much.
It’s
all
becoming
too
much
for
me
—
and
I’m
going
to
retire,’”
Green
said.
“And
Adam
said,
‘You’re
making
a
very
rash
decision
and
I
won’t
let
you
do
that.’”
“We
had
a
long,
great
conversation
—
very
helpful
to
me.
Very
thankful
to
play
in
a
league
with
a
commissioner
like
Adam
who’s
more
about
helping
you
than
hurting
you;
helping
you
than
punishing
you.
He’s
more
about
the
players.”
Now
that’s
fulfilled
his
suspension
commitments,
Green
could
return
to
the
team
before
the
end
of
the
week.
His
style
of
basketball
is
a
very
old
school
no-nonsense
type
which
just
isn’t
today’s
world
and
hopefully,
while
he
was
out,
he
was
able
to
use
the
tools
provided
to
him
to
become
better
overall.
If
not,
he
could
very
well
be
back
in
this
same
situation.
