Each time the discipline comes down you think maybe, maybe, this time Draymond Green will learn. When the Warriors sent him home for cold-cocking Jordan Poole, when the league suspended him for chest-stomping Domantas Sabonis, when the NBA sat him down for five games after Green wrapped Rudy Gobert in a choke hold just last month.
