Report: Cavaliers pushing hard for Draymond suspension

The Cleveland Cavaliers want to see Draymond Green punished for his glancing blow to LeBron James' groin in the dying seconds of Game 4.

The league is reviewing the incident, and the Cavaliers are pushing hard for Green to be punished appropriately, Cleveland.com's Chris Haynes reports.

Over in the other locker room, there is a growing concern Green would be suspended for Game 5. Green is sitting on three flagrant points through the playoffs and if the incident is upgraded to a flagrant foul, Green would face a one-game ban along with a fine.

Green's hand did come up and strike James between the legs, but that was only made possible by James walking over him. The two forward got tangled up after the play and had words for one another.

James said in the postgame interviews that Green went "a little overboard," while Green answered that James "disrespected" him with the step over.
