Stephen Jackson fined due to tweets regarding Ibaka

Isn't that the same line of thinking that lets the NBA fine the Spurs for Restgate.

The team has a contract to be in the league and they deemed the Spurs conduct to be detrimental.

It seems kind of hypocritical for the Spurs to believe that they as a team have the power to fine Jax and then act like the NBA had no right to fine them

You still don't get it and if you really see a logical equivalency between the two situations, you never will.

There's a huge difference between fine a team by commercial reasons and a misbehaviour from an athlete. Stern fined the spurs for financial reasons and jax got fined by ethic reasons.

I missed the Spurs acting like the NBA had no right to fine them. Could you post some examples, please? Thanks in advance.
