Brown, Iverson fined for critcizing ref Posted: Tuesday March 11, 2003 5:47 PMNEW YORK (AP) -- Allen Iverson and Larry Brown were fined $7,500 each Tuesday by the NBA for criticizing referee Derrick Stafford after the 76ers' loss to the Lakers this weekend. Iverson, Philadelphia's All-Star guard, got two technical fouls and Tyrone Hill received one from Stafford in the third quarter. Kobe Bryant made all three free throws to give the Lakers an 11-point lead in a game they won 106-92 Sunday. "I don't think we had a shot after that. It is just frustrating," Iverson said after the game. "I think that referee, Derrick, has a vendetta against us, and it was evident today. We weren't able to talk to him at all. When we asked about things, he gave us smart comments and pretty much juked us." Said his coach, Brown: "One of the officials has it personal for some of our players. ... He's been personal with us for a long, long time." |
