In the fourth quarter of Game 5 on Tuesday, Chicago Bulls big man Taj Gibson and Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Matthew Dellavedova had a bit of a scuffle. The two of them were battling for rebounding position, and they both fell to the ground. As Gibson tried to get up, Dellavedova locked his legs with his feet. Gibson then appeared to kick Dellavedova as he got free. Multiple players from both teams then got in each other's faces. Watch:
Gibson was assessed a flagrant-2 foul on the play, and thus he was ejected. Dellavedova was not given any sort of penalty for the leg lock. That's a controversial call in a crucial game, and Chicago will miss Gibson's defense, rebounding and post presence in the final minutes.
