    All these “that’ll show em” jokes will show em

    damn these fuckers suddenly started winning again

    Still waiting for Golden State to be fined for sitting out pretty much everybody in both games in New Orleans.

  5. RosaReilly

    Pacers should be fined for losing to them.

  6. Schristie007

    You want teams to take it seriously? The fine should be refunding the tickets for that game.

  7. MegatonDeathclaws

    “Oh no” anyway. I’m sure this will really hurt the organization.

  8. enby_them

    I’m sure the Clippers have a fine coming too then 🙄

    If they actually want to curb this shit, it needs to be more. 25k is nothing for Tsai

  10. DetectiveFujiwara

    How many millions do they make?…

    i wonder if the fine would have been larger had they lost. tough to fine a team for using bench/G-league players if they still win imo.

    This is such a fucking farce. Teams should be allowed to play or not play whichever players they choose in a given game.

    If the league wants teams to behave differently, change the format of the league to be a point where it is no longer beneficial for a team to rest players.

    thats chump change. they should be forced to refund all the fans.

    I’m sure the nets front office is shook. They’ll never do this again

    Friendly reminder that congress gets a $200 fine if they are caught insider trading.

  16. 25k lol it’s not even a slap on the wrist. It’s a baby tap on the wrist.

    Grant Napear in shambles.

    That sonofabitch swore players were slaves and the best should play every game “for the fans”

    They should have designated games where both teams agree to just play the deepest ends of their rosters. And before you say “yea it’s called the G-League”, shut up.

    But hey, of course they lowered ticket prices when they decide the superstars aren’t going to play… /s

    Really though, that is my biggest gripe. Ticket prices go up when certain teams are in town, and then they sit the stars. I know I don’t want pay a few hundred only to be duped when I arrive. Especially if I drive 3+ hours to get there.

    25k is nothing for an NBA franchise
