Holiday stress? Everybody's losing it! Things got HEATED during the Clippers vs. Nets game last night that resulted in Clippers coach Doc Rivers getting ejected! Peep the intense clip and a clip of “Love & Hip Hop: New York” star MariahLynn throwing bows inside…
Last night’s game between the LA Clippers and the Brooklyn Nets got intense when Clippers coach Doc Rivers lost his cool on the sidelines. The NBA coach got so riled up Clippers baller DeAndre Jordan and assistant coach/former baller Sam Cassell had to hold him back while he screamed and lunged at an official.
Peep the intense clip below:
Doc was PISSED!
According to CBS Sports, the Clippers head coach ended up getting ejected from the game with 18.6 seconds left in the first overtime of their 127-122 double-OT loss to the Nets, drawing a second technical foul for arguing about the first one. The 2nd tech was called by referee Ken Mauer when Doc appeared to be yelling at referee Lauren Holtkamp.
But, according to Doc, that wasn’t the case. The NBA coach explained after the game saying:
"It was an awful tech. Honestly, I think you guys know why the tech was called. The official who had nothing to do with the play thought I was yelling at Lauren, and I wasn't. Actually, she said, 'You're right' or whatever, 'let's walk back.' We were talking. We weren't even arguing. So it was the damnedest tech to give at that time, and you know what the league's gonna do. They're going to fall back on 'He crossed half court.' You'll see tomorrow, that's what they're going to say, and we're going to all know that that's not the real reason."
So there’s that.
Last night’s loss was the Clippers' third in a row after starting the season with 14 wins in 16 games. So, you can imagine how that factored in with his frustrations. He talked about being disappointed in his team after the loss saying:
"We lost our respect for the game. I thought we lost our humility. I thought we were playing great, we got up, we got cool, we stopped moving the ball, we went showtime, and I think when that happens you deserve to lose the game. I really do. I think champions have humility throughout the game, and I thought we lost that as a group. We started turning the ball over, we stopped defending as hard because we were up. We were more concerned about getting the ball back so we could try to go score."
Tomorrow, the Clippers will go head-to-head against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In reality TV news...
“Love & Hip Hop: New York” MariahLynn and her girls got into a brawl with some random chicks at her co-star DJ Drewski’s weekly viewing party held at Dolce Lounge in Elizabeth, NJ Monday night. If you're still watching LAHH, you know this is everyday behavior for these folks.
Apparently, some chick poured a drink on MariahLynn’s friend and she tried to break up the fight. Then, someone threw a drink on her and that’s when she jumped in the fight, according to TMZ. After some some punches were thrown, Drewski pulled MariahLynn from the fight and everything settled down and went back to normal.
It’s hard to tell what exactly is going on in the video clips, but see for yourselves above.
