Green-less Warriors outhustled by resurgent Cavaliers

By Rory Carroll OAKLAND, Calif. - Deprived of fiery power forward Draymond Green, the Golden State Warriors were flat and unfocused on Monday as they fell to the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game Five of the NBA Finals with a chance to secure a second consecutive title. Green, suspended one game for his scuffle with LeBron James in the previous contest, watched from the neighboring Oakland Coliseum but still loomed large during a loss that cut Golden State's lead in the best-of-seven series to 3-2. Golden-clad Warriors supports chanted "Free Draymond," held up signs reading #FreeDray and waved cardboard cutout heads depicting Green wearing a crown.
