    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">NEW YORK -- Timberwolves forward Kevin Garnett was fined $5,000 by the NBA on Monday for throwing a basketball into the stands in a win over Memphis.

    Garnett accidentally hit a fan when he tossed the ball away in the third quarter Sunday. He was reacting in frustration after being called for an offensive foul and was ejected from the game.

    Medical personnel examined the fan, who was wheeled from the court on a gurney to boos and later walked with his family and arena personnel to a back room. His condition wasn't immediately available, although he appeared to be uninjured.

    Garnett said Sunday that he didn't intend to throw the ball into the stands but was trying to get a delay-of-game call.

    "By no means was I trying to hit a fan," he said.</div>

    KG Fined $5K for throwing ball into stands.

    I liked when KG went over to apologize, and the guy (actually girl) just glared at him like hes a hardass, then got carted out from getting bumped in the face from a basketball going .7 miles per hour. If he sues KG it would be a travesty.

    Actually looking at what SC, us fans posting on this board - and Im sure many more fans thinking watching the game and replays, would not conside the NBA to have a bad image if they didnt suspend Garnett.

    Btw, the fan was booed as they carted him off.
