Knicks' Bargnani ejected from game after multiple incidents with Garnett
Andrea Bargnani and Kevin Garnett were at each other's throats throughout the entire game on Thursday.
It was only a matter of time before one player got ejected, and most people would have likely placed their money on Garnett.
However, it was Bargnani who was tossed from the game in the fourth quarter after picking up his second technical foul. Referee Joey Crawford caught Bargnani running his mouth after hitting a three-pointer and sprinting directly by Garnett.
In you case you didn't see how Bargnani picked up his first technical foul, it happened only moments earlier when a scuffle broke out between the Italian big man and (yup, you guessed it) Garnett.
There was also this little moment that happened early in the third quarter:

Next time the Knicks and the Nets meet, Bargnani and Garnett really need to mic'd up so we can hear all the trash talk.
They should've just isolated a camera on Bargnani & KG. Non-stop trash talking before ejection. Lots of KG calling AB female body parts.

I can read lips in Italian. Andrea Bargnani just told Kevin Garnett, "I rule Brooklyn."

But regardless of what was said, it sounds like Garnett didn't understand a word.
What did Bargnani say to get ejected? Garnett: "I don't speak Italian." Bargnani: "I wasn't speaking Italian."
