Dillon Brooks had already been called for one technical foul earlier in the game.
So when he bumped his chest into LeBron James late in Sunday night's game between the Phoenix Suns and Los Angeles Lakers, it was clear what was coming.
Brooks got his second tech, which means an ejection.

It was probably totally fair for Brooks to be ticked at James, who had just run right through him on a shot attempt, only to have no foul called on that initial action.
These two have a history of a feud, and even as they've gotten older, they've continued to be key players for their team who still don't like each other.
Ironically, James went to the foul line after this technical foul and missed the free throw. It was the second missed tech FT he had in the same day.
Brooks has been getting a lot of buckets lately, which has helped the Suns start to get this season going in the right direction.
James won't be thrilled to have gotten involved in this feud, but it'll certainly get people talking.
