Derek Fisher fined $5K for flopping during Game 5 vs. Houston

Ummm...just for game 5? Did they miss the other 5 games?

 

why wasn't kmart fined, too?

 

Was it worth the money? of course it was. that's why the commissar needs to put a harsher penalty, a technical for every flop. Two techs and you're out a game.

or you can do what comes natural to a commissar and just delete all video evidence and censor the broadcasters.

 

Funny how they failed to fine any of the other obvious flops he has done in the series and somehow this is his "first offense".

 

Yeah what about Martin? Did they not see it was a synchronized flop? Are they actually claiming Martin is so pathetically skinny he didn't flop? $5K is a joke and hardly a deterrent for making game changing plays, but at least get the wrist slapping correct.

 

Fisher exaggerated by pushing himself away from Asik making it look like it's really a FORCE lol.

That fool is the KING of flopper after Divac retired.

 

David Stern is a joke. Fisher flopped ALL SERIES and got fined 5k?!!!

 

The NBA should fine Derek Fisher $100,000 for being Derek Fisher, the most annoying player in the league. He may not always drink beer, but when he does, he drinks Kaflopsy.

 

This. They couldn't ignore it because the clip went viral. All the other offenses they could sweep under the rug.

And yeah, Martin somehow got away with it when both accomplices were caught on the scene together. Weird.

 

Under the league rules, he should be fined at least $30k. I lost count of the number flops he had against the Rockets just in that series.

 

what a joke, he should be in debt with all the flopping hes done

 

They fine somebody who gets fouled, and this foul was called for Fisher. They can't fine Martin because he wasn't the guy who the refs called it for.

 

Fix'd it......

At the beginning of the season, I was cautiously optimistic that the NBA was headed towards the right direction with their flopping rules. With this season in the bag, I can safely nothing has changed.

The way Fisher plays the game is an abomination.

 

Rodman23 owes Fisher 5 large.

 

~lol~ Yeah! :grin:

 

Does the rule say that you have to get the call to get fined?

 

$5k is obviously a joke
