Kobe is gonna have to chill out. I have seen him wildin on some refs too.
He has instituted a fine system, starting at $5,000, every time a player or coach makes a public criticism of an official. He has stiffened the consequences on multiple technicals -- $1,000 fine for the first five, $1,500 for the next five, $2,000 for the next five then $2,500 for the ones that followed, plus a one-game suspension for every other technical after the 15th.
I know Wade won't have a problem with this rule. He goes way back with the refs.
hell my dad's been down with the Lakers since the '60s and up until about 4 years ago he quit watching because of the refs obsession with the whistle
