The Milwaukee Bucks have filed a protest with the NBA over the two technical fouls called against Desmond Mason in the third quarter against Philadelphia on Saturday.

Referee Marc Davis ejected Mason during a timeout with 2 minutes 57 seconds left in the third quarter. Philadelphia led at the time, 69-63, and went on to win, 116-97.

?I placed a call to the league and they?re looking into it,? general manager Larry Harris said.

The Bucks are hoping the league will rescind at least one of the technical fouls. A $500 fine goes along with each one.
