    Yea, I pretty much agree. I think that it's kinda pathetic that they fine for everything anymore.

    No...what they need to do is get better refs..since it seems like EVERY SINGlE REF HATEs THE LAKERS...(and some other teams aswell but especially the Lakers..)
    WHy..every game Shaq gets @ least 2/3 times a 3 sec violation while being pulled by the opposing center.
    and the refs never say anything..it happens ALL The time..but when shaq kills some1 with a dunk..they do give him a BS!!! technical..
    So FU-CK the refs

    Bad calls are part of the game and always have been. What needs to change are these filthy rich basketball players whinning and complaining about how the refs "screwed" them over. Deal with it.

    I understand why Jackson was fined. But why was the organization fined?
