Good morning! Here are the plays everybody will be talking about on Tuesday:

Draymond Green mocked LeBron James for flopping. The Cavs and the Warriors met for the final time in the regular season, and the Warriors blew out the Cavs, 126-91. Things also got a little testy between the two teams again. In the second period, Green went for a steal on James and the two players collided. James may have embellished the foul a bit. This led to Green mocking James for flopping. Green was eventually given a flagrant foul.

The Penguins win a wild one after Sidney Crosby gets away with a trip. In a battle between two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference, the Penguins won a wild one over the Capitals, 8-7. The game included nine second-period goals, and the two teams were still tied 7-7 at the end of the third period. Early in overtime, Crosby appeared to get away with a trip on Alex Ovechkin. On the Penguins' next trip down the ice, they scored on a scramble in front of the net and the Caps were rightfully upset.

This is not how to do an alley-oop. NBA players often perform incredible aerial maneuvers during alley-oops. This is not one of them. Eric Bledsoe of the Phoenix Suns tried to drop an alley-oop for a trailing teammate — only to toss the ball right to a defender.
