Perkins ejected; Davis hurt

Basketball Betting Lines

05/27/2010 - Orlando, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Boston Celtics not only lost Wednesday's Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals against Orlando, but ended the game without an ejected Kendrick Perkins and an injured Glen Davis.

Perkins, the team's starting center, was ejected with 36.1 seconds left in the second quarter of the 113-92 loss.

Davis suffered a concussion in the closing seconds of the third quarter after receiving an elbow to the face from Orlando's Dwight Howard. The status for both players for Friday's Game 6 is up in the air.

Also, Boston swingman Marquis Daniels suffered a concussion in the fourth and Rasheed Wallace tweaked his back.

Perkins lightly fouled Howard in the lane and then turned to complain to the officials about the call, but walked away. He was still assessed the technical by Eddie F. Rush.

It was Perkins' second technical foul of the contest. He was part of a double- technical with Orlando's Marcin Gortat with 2:15 remaining in the half.

Perkins has seven technical fouls in these playoffs, and if the calls from Wednesday hold up he'll be automatically suspended for Friday's contest, but that doesn't appear likely.

"It was awful quick, but they called it," Boston coach Doc Rivers said. "I did think that Eddie Rush, once he called it, he couldn't rescind it because he had forgotten they had given him the other one. I don't think Perk would have gotten that."

While defending Howard's drive to the hoop, Davis fell to the ground when Howard's left elbow connected with his face. Davis stumbled to the other end of the court to join his team on offense and had to be held up by referee Joey Crawford. Davis was still woozy and eventually received medical attention before exiting the contest with 9.7 seconds left.

"I just hope that Big Baby is all right," Howard said. "You never want to see a player go down and I just hope he's okay."

Boston has lost the last two games, but can still advance to the NBA Finals for the second time in three years with a victory Friday night at home. If the Magic win, though, Game 7 will be back in Orlando on Sunday.
