Let’s face it: No NBA playoff game is complete without at least one little tiff.
The Warriors and Trail Blazers offered an entertaining sideshow Sunday, featuring Anderson Varejao and Gerald Henderson. They came together with 3:29 left in the third quarter, when Henderson bumped Varejao in the lane as Damian Lillard drove to the basket.
That sent Varejao stumbling to the court - and he extended his left leg on the way, tripping Henderson. Not surprisingly this angered Henderson, who hopped to his feet and challenged Varejao.
They bumped chests, traded heated words and menacing scowls and drew a double technical foul.
