Celtics guard Jaylen Brown set the tone for Game 2 of the NBA playoffs against the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night with an incredible dunk just three minutes into the game.

Brown drove past the 3-point line, soared from the middle of the paint, and unleashed a powerful dunk right in the 76ers center Adem Bona's face. The dunk was incredible, but the officials weren't thrilled with Brown's move afterward.

The 29-year-old guard stared down Bona after the dunk, and the officials promptly assessed Brown a technical foul for taunting.

Brown's dunk was incredible, but there was no reason for the officials to call a technical foul on the play. It didn't seem like Brown said anything to Bona, and his stare-down wasn't even aggressive.

Even play-by-play broadcaster Jason Benetti and commentator Robbie Hummel, who are on the TV call for NBC tonight, didn’t think a technical foul should have been called.
