    Nothing for Iggy? Damn, guess it’s ok to stand 3 feet from a ref, point at him, and laugh now.

    Interesting that Draymond was fined much more than the other 2. I wonder if his comments/behaviour on the floor were more scathing? I didn't watch any clips.

    It’s probably because he referenced Tim Donaghy in his twitter post. That’s bad red line to cross for the NBA commissioner’s office.

    So where is Steve Javie being interviewed by ESPN telling Curry to man up? I'm just wondering how soon ESPN will get to that...

    From the amount of the fines and what happened on the court it appears the Warriors were strictly fined for their post game comments only and not for what they did on the court. Hopefully the refs collectively agree to not let them do something like that again. It was really bad on both sides to see.

    I'm guessing they dinged Steph for the post-game interview comments. Same $25K that Harden was fined for post-game ref-slapping.

    That, combined with Iggy skating, means the league took absolutely no action for the pointing and laughing at a ref from close range.

    Disrespecting referees on the court and Adam Silver looks the other way. If I were the president of the NBA Ref's Association, I would have something to say about that.

    Steve Kerr also gave the refs a good whack in his postgame interview and gets nothing. If the NBA wanted to dispel the image of the Warriors as golden boys, they aren't doing a very good job

    yeah, i'm probably the biggest nba ref hater here on CF and even for me that fingerpointing bs was too much over the top, basically a childish disrespect to the game itself

    And last night, Durant gets tossed after 2 techs, then calls the ref a "b****ass motherf$#ker" as he's being restrained by his teammates.

    Since it was his 16th tech, he'll miss the next game, too. So of course the league won't punish him further for blatantly disrespecting a ref.

    If you freeze the video around the 7-second mark, it looks like KD is pointing an imaginary gun at ref Zach Zarba when he says it.

    I don't know if that qualifies for a fine or not...but it will quite often get you a tech. I didn't watch the game...did it?

    Not usually something I'd think Iggy would do....guess it goes to show the culture in the Warriors, and how it permeates the team....like a bad odor.
