Dwight Howard Gets Ejected And Kobe Bryant Returns To A Hero's Welcome

Dwight Howard was ejected in the third quarter of Game 4 against the Spurs after he received his second technical foul. The shorthanded Lakers were already getting manhandled with Howard actually in the lineup so this game, and series, is over.

It's possible this could be the end for Dwight and the Lakers and, oh, what an end it was. As TNT showed Dwight heading into the locker room, out hobbled Kobe Bryant, to a huge ovation in a game where the Lakers are getting thumped by 20. He's now sitting behind the bench, urging the team on.
