Los Angeles Clippers head coach Doc Rivers was fined $25,000 on Thursday for criticizing officials after the Clippers' Game 5 loss in Oklahoma City.

Rivers and Paul said they were told by the referees that they didn't have the right replay to change the call.

"We did a lot of stuff in the game ourselves," Rivers said after the game. "But at the end of the day, we have a replay system that you're supposed to look at it. I don't want to hear that they didn't have that replay. That's a bunch of crap."

The NBA said Wednesday the referees made the right call in not changing the possession to the Clippers. The Clippers are down 3-2 in the best-of-seven series and play host to the Thunder Thursday night.

They need to change the fucking rule, then, to "we'll just make it up on the spot."
