He scored twice, making both his shots.
He took a charge.
And then he got ejected.
Haslem can finally say that he has played in 18 NBA seasons and it was a memorable, albeit brief, appearance. He got two technical fouls and was ejected with 10:19 remaining in the first half, less than three minutes after getting into a game for the first time all season.
“If this is the last one, I finished it the only way Udonis Haslem could with an ejection, Haslem said.
He took offense to getting pulled down by Philadelphia s Dwight Howard, then had words with the 76ers veteran as they went nose-to-nose. Haslem and Howard both got technicals, then Haslem got a second one and was sent off.
