    The incident: https://youtu.be/ojZSyVw4-sQ

    Not sure why Suggs was the only one tossed. Nothing about his behavior seemed particularly worse than what the others were doing. Maybe it was because he was the last one to let it go?

      Came into a situation that was already solved and re-escalated it by shoving the player from the opposing team. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

    Wow. I was watching this game and left with four minutes in the second quarter. My understanding was that Drummond raised his fists? And THAT didn’t qualify for an ejection?

      He did briefly take up a boxer’s stance with his fists raised but dropped it before the shoving started. It was a threatening gesture, but I am sure other players involved made equal threats with their words.

      If he actually threw a punch, it would be an ejection.
