Dallas had already received a fine of 25,000 dollars which sanctioned the agitation of his bench, during Game 2 of the semi-final of the conference against the Suns.
Theo Pinson and his comrades thus got into the habit during the season of encroaching on the field to celebrate the exploits of their teammates in play, and the NBA had tried to calm things down.
It was not enough, however, since the league has just announced a new fine, this time of 50,000 dollars. It is still the attitude of the substitutes, as well as certain members of the staff, which is in the crosshairs of the NBA, during Game 7 of the semi-final of the conference, won on the ground of Phoenix.
The league thus once again criticizes the Texan bench for having encroached or even having entered the field outright on multiple occasions. An overflow of enthusiasm that annoys.
