Talking Points of NBA Week 7

Ejections - here, there, everywhere

LeBron James was ejected in the game against his former team - the Miami Heat

This week in the NBA has been all about ejections and more importantly, it's top players being ejected, and Coach Popovich (not a rarity).

LeBron James was ejected for the first time in his 15-year career. In a match against the Miami Heat, LeBron was repeatedly frustrated with no-calls when driving to the basket. On one particular no-call, James lost his cool and charged at the ref. This is what the referee had to say about why he threw James out:

"Immediately after the no-call, he turned and threw an air punch directly at me and then he aggressively charged at me and then he used vulgarity in my ear a few times."

Here's what happened:

Enes Kanter thoroughly enjoyed James' ejection following their altercations on and off the court. He tweeted this:

Gregg Popovich got ejected after he used a bunch of expletives against one of the referees in the game versus the Dallas Mavericks. Angry Pop is the best:

Pop is not holding back on going off on the refs in recent weeks. Two weeks ago, this happened.

Anthony Davis got ejected for the first time in his career on Wednesday against the T-wolves. He had to be held back by his teammates from charging at one of the refs. Watch it here.

Kevin Durant joined the Ejection train on Friday against the Magic. He didn't leave the court before directing a few expletives at the referee.
