By Kyle Koster
Tensions ran high after Cleveland’s Kendrick Perkins delivered a moving screen on Jae Crowder late in the second quarter. After knocking Crowder to the floor, the former Celtic delivered a few choice words in his direction.
The two players then came together for a heated confrontation which Perkins escalated by shoving Crowder in the face.
Once order was restored, Perkins was assessed a flagrant foul but avoided an ejection.
Cleveland enjoys a 21-point halftime lead.
