Vice president of basketball operations Kiki VanDeWeghe stressed on Sunday the NBA is not targeting Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green with some of its rules.

Green was whistled for a critical flagrant foul when he flailed his leg and made contact with James Harden’s head in double overtime during Thursday’s 132-127 loss to the Houston Rockets. It was reminiscent of a couple of Green’s postseason plays, but VanDeWeghe said the rules are in place for all players, per Sam Amick of USA Today. 

“Our rules are for every player,” he said. “We want each play judged according to the rules, as best possible, and the rules applied fairly across our whole league. That’s very important to us. We don’t make exceptions for players. They are applied to everybody.”

This game is so good that Draymond thinks it’s the playoffs…
