The Dallas Mavericks were fined $100,000 hours before their crucial Game 3 against the Golden State Warriors at American Airlines Center for "continuing to violate league rules regarding team bench decorum," according to the league.
"On multiple occasions, several players and a member of the coaching staff stood for an extended period in the Mavericks' team bench area, stood away from the team bench, and were on or encroaching upon the playing court during game action in Dallas' 126-117 loss to the Golden State Warriors," a release from the NBA read.
Missing from that admonishment was Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, who stood extremely close to the court during game action:
But Cuban not only dismissed the fine, he used it as an opportunity to whine about officials' oft-criticized treatment of Dubs big man Draymond Green.
