Theus Fined 25,000 For Comments About Officiating

[.GR]

NEW YORK -- The NBA has fined Sacramento Kings coach Reggie Theus $25,000 for comments he made about the officiating following a loss to Detroit.

The league also penalized the Kings $25,000 on Thursday for Theus' actions.

Theus said it was "ridiculous" that the Pistons took 36 fouls shots to just 17 for the Kings in Detroit's 100-92 victory in Sacramento on Tuesday.

Fines in professional sports are such a joke.

I back up Theus on this one, the refs were a joke. Both team got some really <Censored> calls.

Just opening the mouth is a joke.
We all should be like Stephen A and eat cheez doodles.
All coaches should talk behind a sock puppet...
Less fines then and funnier.
