JJ Albrea gets kicked out of game after flagrant foul on Ray Allen. The announcers were doing their best Bob Eucker homer impersonation, at first saying Ray Allen wanting no part of him when one of his player and a ref were holding him back and then saying Albrea was just standing there when replays showed him backing away from Allen. Funniest part is listening to the homer announcers completely missing reality in the whole thing.

I still wonder what ray was trying to accomplish by running at JJ BAREA. you know you're not gonna throw a punch just let the refs deal with it. nba players, especially those with egos like BAREA, aren't going to get intimidated by all that yelling/stomping.

If Ray Ray did the same thing to JJ, the announcers would be upset, wanting a flagrant, etc.

Barea is clearly in cahoots with Seth Davis and Doug Gottlieb. This is obviously a scheme to make Ray look bad and hurt Ollie's recruiting efforts.
JJ Albrea lmao, the officials do a very poor job settling these scuffles. I thought it should have been a flagrant 1 to be honest. It shouldnt take 20 minutes to decide what the foul should be you make the call and move on. The officials slow down the game so much its unwatchable.

Who jj? The guy who helped the mavs win a title? cool your jets Allen shouldnt be getting his panties in a twist.i love ray but he often gets into it too much for a role player. recently he was yapping at the rockets until harden utterly destroyed him. Bottom line he's too old for that

Wow I've seen chest bumps more physical than that. JJ retaliated for Ray's push. That was not ejection worthy by any means. Good thing it didn't get ugly for Ray Allen's 'unblemished' career sake.
It is good to know that our Ray has favor with the refs. He is in Jordan and other's category in that department.

The announcers were so ridiculously biased against Ray... but I agree that the shove itself shouldn't have resulted in an ejection for Barea.
I believe he got a flagrant 1 for the shove (which was deserved) and then kept yapping at Ray after the fact (calling him a ) which earned him a 2nd flagrant and ejection.

JJ Barea averages 19 minutes and 8 points on his career. Thats a lot of talking for a role player. When you shove someone to the ground, what do you expect them to do? Just stand their and say aw shucks? He also went off in the press at length. Ray Allen has been in this league a long time, and is a future hall of famer. Definitely wasnt flagarant 2 worthy, but maybe Ray just got a little respect from the refs on this one.

Well part of a flagrant 2 call is whatever the refs deem to be excessive vulgarity, so maybe it was something Barrea said that pushed it up a notch to a flagrant 2.
Reports I've seen say that the refs had issued a verbal warning to JJ a few minutes prior.
Probably the same way one gets a flagrant foul by escaping a headlock.

LOVE RAY BUT SINCE JOINING LEBRON HE HAS BECOME A BIT PRIMA DONA - far from a flagrant 2 - Barea would be hard for Ray to handle if there was a scuffle, he is a wildman I know someone who went to school with him at NEU and was living on same floor as him - said he was quiet and nice but play anything competetive like darts of beer pong and he became ultra serious and competetive
How so?
