Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green has been fined $50,000 by the NBA for making an “inappropriate comment” to officials during a playoff game.

No one associated with Golden State asserted that the team would have made the Western Conference Finals with a healthy Curry after losing to Minnesota in five games. But the Warriors' belief in their ceiling didn't waver after dropping Game 5 to the Timberwolves in Minneapolis on Wednesday, May 14.

Draymond Green and the Golden State Warriors had their season come to an end Wednesday night with a Game 5 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. It didn't take long for someone after the game to ask Green about the aging Warriors and what their championship window might look like going forward.
