NBA: Chris Paul Fined $25,000 For Comments About Female Referee

Chris Paul has been fined $25,000 for his public criticism of Lauren Holtkamp, the first-year referee who called a technical foul against the Los Angeles Clippers star point guard earlier this week. The NBA announced the fine Saturday, two days after Paul sounded off on Holtkamp following the Clippers’ loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. I seriously hope the league is fining Paul for his comments in general and not because they felt he disrespected the official because she is a woman.

One person you don’t expect to be dissed by is the referee though and that is exactly what happened to Jabari Parker this week.

(Video) Sports: This Soccer Referee Is Gangsta!! Knocks Player Out With Punch

These players asked for it! Soccer games in other parts of the world are not anywhere nearly as civilized as pro sports in America. This is another example of that. The players disagree with the call the ref made so bad that they begin bumping him and pushing him. He runs away at first, but when they keep coming near him he hooks off! He knocks out one player, just before kicking another one. Next time the players will not be so quick to press him. Check it out after the jump.
