Jimmy Butler trips Jae Crowder, tempers flare (Video)
Tempers flared during Thursday’s game between the Bulls and Celtics.
Late in the second quarter, Jae Crowder collided with Jimmy Butler and was called for an offensive foul. After the contact, Jimmy Butler tripped Crowder. That led to players from both teams exchanging words and some shoving between Isaiah Thomas and Rajon Rondo.

Dwyane Wade, on the other hand, had better things to do.
