“Said what I had to say and I moved on, but he decided I should get two of them (technicals),” James said. “It is what it is. We got the win and that’s what’s most important.”
Adding to that were these words from James about the lack of calls he gets, citing his one trip to the foul line during the game:
"I'm not a jump shooter."

James was ejected from the game with 1:59 left in the third quarter and the Cavaliers holding a lead of 23 points, after having led earlier in the quarter by as many as 34. Miami was able to whittle the final margin down to 11 by the time the game had ended.
The Cavaliers will next be in action on Thursday night. While James can expect a fine from the league office, there’s no expectation that a suspension might be merited, especially since this is the first time James has been ejected.
