Surprised the fine wasn't bigger. Thibodeau basically implied the league was flat out letting Miami win. Anyway.....

His comments were retarded.
Mohammed got mad and blatantly pushed like Lebron like an idiot. Who cares if he flopped...Mohammed didn't act like a smart veteran player.
And LOL at that ^ Lelbron gif.

Should've gotten much more.
Flat out lying to the press should not be so easily accepted.
35K which he'll earn back in what? 5 minutes of coaching? These measly fines mean nothing to any coach or athlete who is earning 10s of millions of dollars.

It really doesn't look like there was much flop involved in that. Just look at it..
If you had your head turned away and some dude slightly larger then you pushed you with a decent amount of force, you're going to be moved.
Either way, it's not a basketball play and he deserved to get tossed. The Bull coach and players really look like a bunch of ******* right now.

This phaggit Bruce Blitz said LeBron should have been ejected for pushing Noah's arms off of him then the very next game says Nazr definitely shouldn't have been ejected. Bulls fans are legit retards.

How come Lebron didn't get fined for flopping?
The NBA is a joke :oldlol:
Not saying he didn't deserve to get tossed, but players have gotten away with much much more and only been given flagrant.
Wade's elbow push on RIP in 2011 and Wades push from behind on George Hill in 2011 come to mind...
Lebron definitely sold that push, but the fall he had when Marco bumped him late in the game was way more of a flop. And Bosh had a way more obvious flop that impacted the game...no reason Bosh shouldn't of been fined for flopping

If they actually start fining everybody for a flop, I'd imagine 90% of the NBA would be getting a fine. From the Bulls, I've seen Noah, Butler, Belinelli, and Robinson all flop in the past three games. Why don't Bulls fans bring that up?
Anyway, it was obvious that he would get fined for his statements.

Bulls fans:
the star player of the other team just got a tech and your center shoved the same guy to the ground during a dead ball and shouldn't have been ejected.
Your coach broke NBA policy and shouldn't have been fined.
You intentionally play physical basketball but shouldn't be called for fouls.
Did I miss anything?

Are we surprised? He should have been fined more. If your team (The Bulls) are going to go out and play extra physical basketball, you get what you get. Don't whine about the calls. Just play.
Good. It's like the Bulls are trying to play 5 on 8 instead of 5 on 5.

Nazr's shove was after the whistle. That's a large part of why he was ejected.

Why would Lebron get fined for flopping on a push after the whistle? He did the same thing Reggie Miller used to do when he got under people's skin.

Completely different scenarios, buddy. Nazr pushed LeBron in a dead ball situation. That's why he got tossed.

LeBron actually didn't flop this time, he was too focused on crying to the ref and was surprised and knocked off balance and didn't have time to stagger backwards so he just went with it.

Not much to be proud of since it was pretty much gift-wrapped for him. Dwight was a far better candidate that year.
This fine is so small. He basically said the league is cheating. Not the reffing was bad, but that there was an actual agreed upon bias against the Bulls. How is that only $35k?

It's basically a wink and a nod by Stern giving 100% proof that he is the head of the Heat ref-fueled championship conspiracy.

Its literally a bitch fest in here, you guys aren't even real fans so it is to be expected though.

Lebron got the T as fast as any ref can give a T and then after the play is over, a 6'10" bulls player shoves lebron while he is looking at the refs and whole united center cheers. Just goes to show you how intelligent chicago fans are. No wonder they murder each other for burgers.

That's what I find hilarious. Play had stopped. Flopping has nothing to do with it anymore. :oldlol:
Bulls fans honestly have the same attitude as New York fans for the most part. They think everyone is against them, that everyone is a hater and that they are always relevant. One of the worst fanbases on this forum. Not sure about real life, but it certainly holds true for this forum.

Fcuk that.
Tom is all in and supports his players 100%. The fact that he shares the sentiments of his team, shows his belief and passion for the Bulls. Sure, players can get out of hand with their passion, and I'm sure he's pointed out when not to step over a line, but he won't stop them from believing, nor will he discourage them showing passion and shaking up this team of primadonnas who don't like to get dirty...Poor babies

Why were you so upset about my comments saying the refs were favoring you guys in game 1 then if you do the exact same thing? My whole shtick that game thread was to prove a point, and its going down to the tee.
You think you got bad calls, I think we got bad calls. What now?
I don't care about the Lebron fans. Its also rich that comes from a Bulls fan seeing as the majority of your global support comes from Michael Jordan fans. Don't knock player fans when your team is built off them.
I've never seen the Heat fans in the stadium cheer an injury, or clap when the opponent is hurt, nor have I heard of any death threats being made to our opponents. This is the case with Chicago. So what exactly makes us worse than these fans?

They have a high number of trolls compared to real fans. Longtime Heat fans are few compared to the new fanbase before the rockshow joined up.The game fans have been atrocious, we've all seen that chick and her douchebag man sticking her finger up at noah, and trashing him.

What does sticking up a finger at a player do? Nothing. Its not wishing harm to anyone. Its like when someone cuts you off in traffic and you flip them off. No harm done.
Bulls fans are cheering possible injuries and calling in death threats.
And again, Heat fans think we have been robbed of calls and you think the Bulls have. So I'll ask again, what now? You just responded with the same shit in regards to it. Your fans rubbed in the victory when you won, just so you know, and then you did the same shit, complained about the refs when you lost. Yet, not only your fans did, but your team actually did. And somehow we're the primadonnas? :oldlol:

I agree with this. He was caught off guard and didn't even have the time to think to flop and make the push seem worse than it was. He did however flop a couple times in game 1 in the fourth quarter (he looked so stupid and helpless trying to win that way) and at the end of the third game when Belinelli slightly bumped into him. I believe he also flopped once when one of the Bulls was shooting a FT. He was backing into Noah, and Noah stepped away, and LeQueen threw himself on the floor.

Cole clearly pushed Noah off when he was trying to deny the inbound pass. Noah tried to sell it, that's not flopping. That's why I said Lebron didn't flop when he got shoved by Nazr.

If you go by that definition, then very few players actually flop. Doesn't the NBA video on flopping actually say that exaggerating contact is considered a flop?

Lebron and CP3 are definitely among those very few players. They usually either initiate the contact and then flop or flop when there's absolutely no contact. Lebron did cut down on his flops in the regular season, but he turned it on big time now that he's playing against a great defensive team.
Lebron definitely flopped when Marco bumped him towards the end of the game. He rolled like 10 feet into the camera men.
Bosh may of had the most obvious flop on that 50/50 ball with Noah. He didn't get it and just fell down.

Can you list these moments when Lebron flopped? The only three I can remember is when he was setting a screen and Noah ran into him, when Nazr pushed him, and when he fell out of bounds. But if we go by your definition, he "sold it". So I don't recall any incidents where he flopped.
