The forecast for Game 6: chippy as ever.

Chicago Bulls power forward Nikola Mirotic received a flagrant-1 after using his arm to clothesline Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Iman Shumpert in the second quarter.

Shumpert had a delayed reaction to the incident.

After sinking a 3-pointer from 26 feet out, he walked back to the bench, yelling "He's a bitch."

"I think the wrong guy to clothesline in his own hometown is Iman Shumpert," said coach David Blatt after the Cavs walloped Bulls.
