The Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets locked horns for Game 4 of round 1 tonight. After watching the first three games of the series, most were anticipating a sweep in favor of the Dubs as they led the series by 3-0.

But in the decisive Game 4, Nikola Jokic put on an absolute show and helped his team win a game in the series. While the job is still far from over, this victory meant a lot to the team's morale.

After all, the playoffs are the time when each team and player is hoping to find the fruit of success after playing hard the entire year. Speaking of playing hard, Warriors forward Draymond Green took it a notch above in Game 4.

Fans who have watched Green's entire career are aware that, at times, Draymond seems to get a bit too rough with his game. It was a similar case in tonight's fixture when the former DPOY poked Nikola Jokic in the eye.

The image looks really painful and most NBA fans on Twitter couldn't stop themselves from reacting to it. On that note, here are the best reactions posted by NBA fans on Twitter after seeing the incident between Green and Jokic.

Being competitive during the playoffs is understandable, but Green always seems to take it even further.

Moreover, as many fans pointed out, this isn't the first time Draymond has poked an opponent in the eye. He has done the same to James Harden and LeBron James as well.

Although he received a technical foul, which was majorly due to the heated altercation between Green and Aaron Gordon, one might wonder if the Warriors star should be penalised for his actions? Well, if there is a fine for his actions, we will soon find out about it.
