Los Angeles Clippers head coach Tyronn Lue was ejected in the fourth quarter Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors for picking up his second technical foul during a brief altercation between both teams.

Tensions erupted when Clippers center Mason Plumlee appeared frustrated by not getting a foul call and responded with a hard foul on Warriors rookie Brandin Podziemski. That drew a crowd involving both teams around the Clippers' bench.

Plumlee was assessed a flagrant 1 for the foul, though referees appeared to disagree with Lue's defense of his center and handed him a second tech, ejecting him from the contest at the 9:36 mark.

Lue picked up his first technical less than a minute prior after taking exception with an earlier swipe by Draymond Green on Plumlee and pleading his case to the officials.

Lue's ejection seemed to spur the Clippers, however; they rallied late without their head coach to defeat Golden State 130-125.
