Game 3 of the first-round series between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics was a physical one.
In the second quarter, with LeBron James chugging down the court with a head full of steam, Evan Turner did all he could do slow him down -- which meant taking James off his feet.
The play was reviewed and Turner was assessed a flagrant foul for the heavy contact.
