Come on, now, Joakim, Kobe didn't make it completely clear to you that you'll get fined for that shit?
| quote: | MIAMI -- Bulls center Joakim Noah apologized for allegedly using a gay slur toward a fan during Chicago's 96-85 loss to the Miami Heat in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals.
Noah was angry after picking up his second foul with 6:26 left in the first quarter. After sitting down on the bench he turned to his right and shouted toward a fan.
"I apologize," Noah said. "The fan said something to me that I thought was disrespectful, and I got caught up in the moment, and I said some things that I shouldn't have said. I was frustrated and I don't mean no disrespect to anybody. I just got caught up."
Noah said he expects to be fined for the comment.
NBA spokesman Tim Frank declined to comment on the incident.
Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant was fined $100,000 by the NBA for directing a gay slur toward referee Bennie Adams during a game against the San Antonio Spurs on April 12.
"While I'm fully aware that basketball is an emotional game, such a distasteful term should never be tolerated," Commissioner David Stern said in a statement. "Accordingly, I have fined Kobe $100,000. Kobe and everyone associated with the NBA know that insensitive or derogatory comments are not acceptable and have no place in our game or society."
Noah scored just one point to go along with five rebounds and struggled defensively against the Heat's Chris Bosh, who had 34 points as Miami went up 2-1 in the series |
