NBA nullifies technical fouls on Nene, Green

The NBA has rescinded technical fouls that were called on Tuesday night on Nene of the Houston Rockets and Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors, ESPN's Brian Windhorst reported. The technicals were called in the third quarter in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinals when the two players jawed at each other.

That means Green now has three postseason technical fouls instead of four. Any player who is assessed seven technical fouls in one postseason automatically is suspended one game. Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after the game that the team would ask the NBA to rescind the technical foul prior to Saturday's Game 3.
