Things got heated, to say the least, in Friday night's Game 3 between the Wizards and Bulls.
In the fourth quarter, Wizards forward Nene was assessed two technical fouls after getting into it with Bulls guard Jimmy Butler, meaning an automatic ejection from the game. Butler was assessed a technical foul of his own for his involvement in the incident.
Nene grabbed Butler around the neck before the two players were separated.
