http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=AnU5VN6DndnF7wHiqjLCNY68vLYF?slug=ap-trailblazers-fernandez Trail Blazers swingman Rudy Fernandez(notes) has been fined $50,000 by the NBA for comments his European agent made last week. Fernandez also was fined $25,000 for statements his U.S. agent made in August. I guess Stern plans on taking back all of the contract money one way or another...
good. to hell with Rudy Fernandez. the dude has Vassilis Spanoulis syndrome. we don't care if you're "the man" where you're from.
I have no problem with what Rudy is doing, it is his career, he should do whatever is best for himself. DD
Kudos to BDswangHTX, Dei and da_juice for offering three diverging opinions on the subject that I completely agree with.

Rudy,,, you should know better... don't talk bad about the NBA, don't complain, don't disobey, don't talk about fixed games ( referees ), don't talk even if it's in Europe you do your talking .... Just ask JVG ... $100,000.00
Anyone else read it as "Rudy T fined $50,000"? Rudy Fernadez does not deserve to have a similar nickname as our Rudy T.
