If Kobe got 100 directed towards and official, It seems logical Noah would get more if directed towards a fan. But what in the NBA is logical.
Both fines are outrageous, just to make my position clear.

Noah fined $50,000 for gay slur..what do you think of it?
My first thought was that they can't go backwards after Kobe was fined $100,000...but Kobe makes a lot more money. Do you think fines should be assessed as a standard amount, or as a percentage of the players salary?

Noah is a nobody, Kobe is a worldwide superstar.

Calling the official a fa**ot is different from doing the same to a fan. It does not help that Kobe's language was heard by millions of viewers.

fines are not based on salary, only suspensions (I know that's not what you meant)
and Noah just got a 50 or 60 million dollar extension
But there shouldn't be varying degrees of penalties for the same offense, what is this, the NFL?
