Boston's Perkins eligible for Game 6 after technical rescinded
Basketball Betting Lines
05/27/2010 -
New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The NBA has rescinded the second technical
foul issued to Boston Celtics center Kendrick Perkins in Game 5 on Wednesday,
meaning he is eligible for Friday's Game 6 at TD Garden versus the Orlando Magic.
Perkins was ejected with 36.1 seconds left in the second quarter on Wednesday
after reacting to a foul call. He screamed in frustration while walking away
from referee Eddie Rush, who still made the technical foul call.
It was Perkins' seventh technical foul of the playoffs at the time, which
triggers an automatic one-game suspension. His total is now reduced to six, so
his next technical foul will cause him to miss a game.
The Celtics lead the best-of-seven series, 3-2, which shifts back to Boston
for Game 6. Orlando has won the last two games and is looking to be the first
NBA team to climb out of an 0-3 series deficit to win a best-of-seven set.
Game 7 would be on Sunday.
In addition to Perkins' ejection on Wednesday, both Glen Davis and Marquis
Daniels suffered a concussion, and it is currently unknown whether either
player will be available for Game 6. According to The Boston Globe, both
players will undergo a neurological exam before the team determines whether or
not they can play.
Paul Pierce's foul on J.J. Redick in the fourth quarter was also upgraded to a
Flagrant 1.
