Seconds after Lamar Odom was ejected from Game 4, Andrew Bynum delivered a cheap elbow to J.J. Barea and was immediately tossed from the game.
Bynum had no intention of making a defensive play on the ball and clearly sought to injure Barea. The starting center is almost guaranteed to face a hefty fine from David Stern, who notoriously comes down hard on players that commit dirty plays. This is a sad way for the Phil Jackson coaching era to come to a close.
