Livingston calls Green’s absence “ultimate test” for Warriors

Livingston calls Green’s absence “ultimate test” for Warriors Draymond Green went through his usual game-day routine Monday morning during the Warriors’ shootaround - taking passes from assistant coach Luke Walton, launching shots, smiling and joking. [...] the routine will take a notable detour Monday night, when his team seeks its second consecutive NBA championship. Green’s one-game suspension, in the wake of his fourth flagrant-foul point of the postseason, will keep him out of Game 5 of the Finals against Cleveland. Green did not speak to the assembled media after the shootaround at Golden State’s downtown Oakland practice facility. Green is the vocal and emotional leader of the Warriors, but these are strange, uncommon circumstances.
