Luke Walton Keeps Lakers-Pelicans Ejection Party Going
By Bobby Burack
A few minutes after Isaiah Thomas and Rajon Rondowere ejected after an intense scuffle, Los Angeles Lakers head coach Luke Walton is joining them.
After a technical foul call on Kyle Kuzma, Walton reacted vividly:
Luke Walton Ejected.

I have no idea what he's upset about. It was a foul. Kuzma then reacted in a way that drew a technical. pic.twitter.com/rXxOTtXND4
While some are better at lip-reading than others, this may have been what was spoken:
Don't need to be a world-class lip reader to see what Luke Walton said to referee Michael Smith. After the tech on Kuzma, he said, "Are you (expletive) kidding me?" Smith was not, in fact, kidding him.

At least Thomas and his new coach Walton can watch the second half together.
