Is he going to set a record for ejections in a series?
Initially, this ejection looked very questionable. It looked like the refs saw Gasol fall and made the Flagrant two call based on that. The commentators themselves expressed serious doubt.
But watch the video and look at Ron Artest's off-arm, the left arm. His right arm is going after the ball (though in a wild swing, which have been called flagrant) and gets some ball with his right hand. But Ron's left arm delivers a shove to Gasol's right shoulder that has nothing to do with making a play on the ball.
You have to watch a few times because of the tangle of bodies. But Artest wasn't just going for the ball or trying to make a play.
