Good
Is that bruh DD rocking the Miami Marlins shirt in the background?
and nothing happens to the ref who made the call?
5K is not even a slap on the wrist but at least he has to pay something.
Unlikely, stars usually get their small fines paid for by their respective franchises.
5k to him is like $5 for us
It's ing ridiculous that the ref made that call when he wasn't even looking at the ing play. What a joke

not even.
$5k to these multi-millionaire athletes is like a nickel to us.
its hilarious how delayed the call was

You can clearly tell the ref wasn't even looking when it happened.
Refs should NEVER react to players tbh... it's stupid. If you didn't see it, don't call it, I could live with that. Don't call something just because wade acts like a about it
He should get fined as well for making stupid calls
They make that call when not even looking, but can't see westbrook clearly out of bounds with both feet on that steal while looking right at him.
yo fine fool.
Ginobili actually got hacked in the face on the latter stages of the game and they didn't call it. It would have been FT and a tied game, instead we got a turnover. They should have called it at least as a make up call.
5K for multi-millionnaires.
There should be a strike system for the flops you got caught for, plus the fine, in an attempt to curb the most egregious flops. A game suspension for every 3 flops, for example tbh...
Yeah this is going to put a real dent on his bank account.
Yeah I just checked his lifetime earnings stand at $121M. Let's say taxes and sponsorships cancel out so that his net worth his roughly $121M. $5000 for Wade is like...$165 to me. Yeah, I wouldn't give a about a $165 fine.
Yeah it's amazing how inconsistent the refs were this game. They give Wade that call even though they're going by the aftermath of Wade's flopping and not actually seeing the foul itself, and yet they don't give Manu the same benefit. Just inconsistent reffing.
ing hilarious the flop occurred against Ginobili of all people.
The real punishment isn't the fine. It's the embarrassment of being made an example of by the league and looking like a pussy for the world to see. And the more elite you are as a player the more humiliating it is to be called out like this. No one really cares if someone like Battier flops, but people will verbally abuse the out of Wade for this.
100K per flop. Get 3 in a year or postseason and you get suspended a game for each flop until the next season.
if i'm commish for a day and i could change the rules on this stuff:
1st of all, this gets reviewed more often than it currently does. way too many blatant flops that don't get picked up
1st offense: warning
2nd offense: 1 game suspension
each ensuing offense: 1 game suspension
obviously resets for playoffs, so you get 1 playoff warning
That sounds about right to me.
People already give Wade enough for this before the fine. He's basically a running hospital with how hard he flops and fakes being hurt for the benefit of calls.![]()
