[Charania] Sources: The NBA is fining Nuggets star Jamal Murray for substantial amount after throwing heat pad and towel on court toward official Monday night. No suspension.

Even Denver fans think he should have been suspended

Not a fucking soul can convince me that if KAT or Ant pulled that bullshit Jamal did that either of them wouldn’t have been suspended for at least a game. Im praying the wolves sweep these lames and get this ring in June. Between the Ant discourse about him playing for a bigger market and this shit, I just want the wolves to be a dynasty people hate outside the bubble.
Make them suffer.

Should’ve been a suspension and a substantial fine, league had to set a precedent and this is what they went with. Weak penalty but whatever though, still expecting Target Center to pop the heck off this weekend and Wolves looking to close these guys out.
Quite funny the two teams the Wolves went against in the post season had their coach storming the court, no T’s given… star players also whining to refs like babies who got their bottles taken away. The Jaden jail is real.

No suspension… Some real BS- trying to help the nuggets as much as possible for game 3. Hopefully he still plays like trash and that ends up hurting them more than a suspension would.

It’s unfair but it won’t matter.
Walrus_arrf
Yup sounds about right🤦♂️

While I do want to face the Nuggets at full strength, Murray not getting suspended in this situation is mind-boggling. Just the heat pad incident was enough, but the entire game he was completely unable to control his emotions.

I don’t want to hear a single Nuggets fan complaining about the refs after this.
South_Ad_7488
Ant should start throwing dangerous objects on the court. No tech and he would lose .004 percent of his contract
Blevanhoval
Not surprising but that’s wild that the precedent has now been set that you can throw shit onto the floor (TWICE) during a live ball and all you have to do is pay some pocket change.
Mustard_Jam
Silver is such a bitch lmao.
Meatball2112
The Nuggets can still man up and do the right thing by suspending him….but I’m not holding my breath
Blaze4Dayzz
a worse punishment than being suspended is him playing game 3
yourloudneighbor
Feast the fuck out of that gimpy little turd Friday night.
SingleVertebra
I mean the maximum fine amount under the new CBA is $100K, but the lack of suspension is pathetic
Specialist_Brief1552
I have a feeling refs might call some unseemly techs on the nuggets as makeup calls for this. But also it’s the nba so probably not.
Hefty-Profession-567
Eh. The real punishment is making him suit up again.
John-the-Gardener
I think the league forgot to tack on “during live play” to the description. KAT almost stepped on that pad and could’ve seriously been injured.
Message received, NBA: ratings are more important than player safety.
Self_Important_Mod
Only because we’re up 2-0
Some fraudulent horse shit, but i look forward to seeing Murray get spitroasted again
Nickeil Alexander-Walker is Jamal Murray and Adam Silver father
phernoree
Murray is devastated to learn he’s forced to play game 3.
Ozzietheparrot
Effing BS. I don’t want to hear anymore bitching from their fans about the officiating.

Fan = lifetime ban. Player = .5% salary fine
ANTfanclub
What makes me fucking furious is, it doesn’t look like he will be punished for making the money sign. Rudy got a T and a $100,000 fine.
Once again goes to show, the NBA will come down harder on the Timberwolves more than anyone else.
lazyFer
1/3 of what he makes each game isn’t “substantial”
HiImWallaceShawn
Adam Silver looks like a serial killer who keeps several people in his basement

This is a nothing punishment. I hope Ant clowns Murray game 3.
krispykreme_jr
No longer ref vs wolves now it’s NBA vs wolves
donwothe
As annoying as this is, the refs are the only people more annoyed with this outcome than us. The nba just said a tiny fine is the result of throwing stuff at refs. I’d be surprised if the refs don’t take some of their own justice.
REACT_and_REDACT
So if Ant starts tossing stuff at refs and onto the floor under Jokic, I guess it’s just gonna be a fine right?
I don’t want to win against a team where Murray is suspended, and the average NBA fan doesn’t want to see a star suspended in the playoffs … but Silver really shit the bed on this decision. You just sent the message that anything goes in the playoffs.
Andy_Wiggins
Wolves fans going to the game. Bring heating packs to the game and toss them onto the court as a form of protest (not during live play, though, that’s dangerous).
davisthagreat83
$100k!! Frickin joke!! Rudy got $100k for his money sign, Murray did the money sign AND threw at the ref TWICE!!
Yet the refs are against Denver hahah
DeleAlliForever
Seems like if it’s something pointed at the officials or anything verbal it should be a fine. But in this instance it was a physical thing that could’ve really injured someone when he was on the bench
TmizzleFOShizle
What a joke but not surprised, welcome to hell at the crib
WarmToning
So where is the line drawn at what is and isn’t allowed to be thrown during live play? Heat packs are ok but what about some assless chaps? Or maybe some jello jigglers? Wish nba would release some guidelines to clear this up.
iceyH0ts0up
Good. No excuses for the sweep.
Gutless and spineless, no doubt.

Kick him off the tour, Doug!

This is what we call a “business decision” and does not make me hopeful that the refs are going to be fair on Friday. They let a lot of shit go, that’s how basketball should be played, but I can see them calling a foul on us if we breath wrong.
Let’s not forget this is a business first and foremost, the best financial decision is to make series long.
omahawizard
In other news, anyone going to the game, you could start the “shame!” Chant anytime Murray gets the ball?

Don’t matter little boy small

Rudy should especially take beef with this given he did less for the same fine. Hope he’s got a little chip on his shoulder. Maybe that and his newfound dad strength and parental motivation will result in a huge game from him.
StLsC10
Interesting precedent to set I suppose.. you’d think the referee unions would be a little pissed knowing players can throw things at them when they’re unhappy without missing games.
EnvironmentalToe4403
Remember, he tried to hurt KAT. Let him know how we feel about it on Friday.

“Stars” don’t get suspensions for clearly suspendable actions
