BOSTON — Well, you don’t see this every day.
The Boston Celtics found themselves in comeback mode in the third quarter of Wednesday night’s game against the Spurs, trimming San Antonio’s 20-point lead to nine midway through the frame. But things suddenly would come crashing down for the Celtics.
Kemba Walker toppled over after getting flattened by a LaMarcus Aldridge screen, but no foul was called. Walker didn’t like that one bit, and made sure to let the officials know it.
Then, the unthinkable happened: Walker got ejected.
Here’s how it all played out, via NBC Sports Boston:

Walker was handed two technical fouls and Brad Stevens, who had a few choice words for the ref in question, also was handed a technical.
Didn’t see that one coming, did ya? (Neither did we.)
