New York, NY (Best E Casino) - Detroit Pistons forward Rasheed Wallace was fined $25,000 by the NBA on Thursday for his use of profanity and criticism of officials. Wallace's eruption occurred after Detroit's 106-102 loss to the Celtics in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals, as Boston took a 3-2 edge in the best-of-seven series. The always-vocal Wallace was noticeably upset about the perceived flopping done by Boston throughout the contest and was issued a technical foul during his 18-point, four-rebound effort.
