Kobe just needs to tell everyone to go watch South Park.

Haha. He got fined $100K for that. Only because the camera paned to him at that moment.

Players in the NBA sometimes use the 'n' word according to Rich Bucher...I had no idea.

I saw that...immediately the announcers said they should take the camera off of Kobe, but it was quite clear what he said to the ref.

Michael Jordan said worse.*







*Unknown on truthfulness, but I found it necessary to include the necessary Michael Jordan comparison in a Kobe thread.

That fine is ridiculous. Take it out of the TNT camera crew budget.

Silliness.

Kobe called the ref a bundle of sticks. It's just the gays have glommed on and are stealing this word.

Wow... what a joke to fine him $100k for that. When I read David Stern's comments, I figured he called the ref a ***got in a press conference. He called him that from the bench and you fine him $100k?! I am guessing damn near every player in the league says at least as bad of a thing directed at a ref dozens of times per season during a game.

Wow no other word in the English language would even garner a $15,000 fine, how PC can you be?

And how did a small subgroup that is probably less than 3% of the population become so political powerful?

Why is the NBA concerned? How many of their fans really care?

I'm in the fine is overkill camp. Seemed like the comment was made under his breath when the ref, who was at a distance, didn't acknowledge him.

Shortly after :30 mark.

In fairness, both Richard Jefferson and Luke Walton happened to be participants of this game.

what do you think would've happened if a camera caught some white player calling Kobe a ***ing **gger?? He'd be crucified.

You don't have to be a homosexual to be offended by hateful behavior. It would have been worse fine if he called him something based on religion or race.

That's my point. I'm not sure why that is...
