Warriors’ Draymond Green picked up his first technical foul in the 2nd Quarter and has been risking a second since then

The Golden State Warriors are hosting the Dallas Mavericks for Game 2 of the WCF right now. After taking a lead as large as 19 points, the Mavericks got dominated by the Warriors in the 2nd half. The Dubs cut the lead and took a 9-point lead of their own.
Luka Doncic had 28 points at the end of the 3rd, while Stephen Curry had 22 of his own. After starting the game making 14 3s in the first half, the Mavs could only manage 2 triples in the 3rd. The Warriors have tried their best to make this a chippy game, with Draymond Green leading the charge for the same.
He picked up a technical foul in the 2nd quarter for the same. One would expect Green to calm down and play carefully after the same right? The exact opposite has been happening since.
NBA Twitter reacts as refs refuse to give Draymond Green a second technical
Ever since picking up his first tech, Draymond Green has been reckless. He’s going after players, arguing with the referees.

However, he hasn’t been assessed his 2nd tech. NBA Twitter saw the same and decided to mock this behavior.

However, Dray did pick up his 5th foul midway through the 3rd quarter. He sat out till the 8-minute mark of the 4th quarter, and looks like a whole different person now. In his absence, Kevon Looney was huge, scoring a career-high 21 points, and grabbing 10 rebounds.
