    Ejection Boston & Indiana Game

    And surprise it's not Artest. He was involved in the play, but Battie was ejected for a flagrant 2 foul after he though Artest kicked him in the head. The Celtics are going to really struggle without Battie in the middle. Dumb decision by Battie.

    Yup. If you noticed the replay he tried to make it look like it was all ball. *shaking head*. You could tell the kick wasnt intentional. Battie looked like he wanted to help Artest up though.

    Yea for once it wasnt a pacer who got ejected.


    The pacers are leading 88-78 with 7:29 to go in the 4th.

    the kick was intentional but battie was stupid to give the refs an excuse to throw him out. the pacers wasted a big break in not closing the game.

    the kick looked like an accident, it looked like artest stuck it out to keep his balance, but i'm sure he didn't mind it catching battie upside the head. the refs always catch the second guy in scuffles. so hit first!
