Cavaliers star LeBron James isn't surprised by the physicality we've seen thus far in the playoffs.

Things heated up between Cleveland and Chicago on Saturday afternoon and later that night Boston and Miami got into a scuffle that led to a one-game suspension for Kevin Garnett.

"You hope the league would be a little lenient knowing it's the playoffs and knowing how physical the game becomes," James said Sunday. "But it's going to be testy.

"You see these guys a lot and you get tired of seeing them a lot. It's going to be testy at times, but you got to try and control your emotions as much as possible. It's hard in the postseason."
