"He ain't scared of the brothers." These was a sentence uttered by Spike Lee when talking about Kristaps Porzingis. Apparently, the Hawks' Kent Bazemore didn't get the memo.

In the waning moments of the fourth quarter, a battle under the basket resulted in Porzingis pulling down the board and getting foul called on Bazemore. After the whistle was blown, Bazemore wrestled the ball away from Kristaps and the Knicks rookie reacted by getting right in his face. The two guys were eventually separated and Carmelo Anthony came swooping in to jaw at the rest of the Hawks players as the referees stood in between them. 

Why would you want to test someone who goes on WorldStar every day? Tread lightly, Kent.
