JO/Haslem...

[Kings113]

Got into a pretty good scuffle with eachother... Haslem got ejected. Shaq tried to seperate them.

I love Pacer/Heat games, the last few years they've been some of the best games with a playoff atmosphere. Along with that series I saw some of in the 2004 2nd round. Become one of my favorite match-ups. Glad I taped it or else I wouldn't of been able to see the game (went out).

ESPN - The Associated Press is reporting that Heat forward Udonis Haslem was ejected in the second quarter after scuffling with Jermaine O'Neal on Monday night.

Haslem rebounded a missed jumper by Indiana's Danny Granger with 5:25 left in the half, and O'Neal locked his arm around Haslem's -- spinning the Miami player around. The two began exchanging heated words and were separated by Heat center Shaquille O'Neal, among others.

No punches were thrown and no players left the bench area, although both coaches -- Miami's Pat Riley and Indiana's Rick Carlisle -- were on the court as the tensions continued to escalate.

Both players were issued technical fouls. Haslem, though, was also charged with an offensive foul, and was issued a second technical after arguing that call. He left the floor angrily, tearing off his jersey and throwing it onto the court.

I saw that and I noticed Shaq's hands were around JO's throat, some way to break them up. JO said after the game he can find me, I'm not hard to find.

Yall see that sign "Jermaine O'Neal is a cry baby"? I thought that was hilarious.

Haslem went psycho on JO last night. I don't know what he was thinking. I'm not angry at Shaquille, though. He chose what could be called a poor method, but he was just trying to keep JO from advancing.
