The Celtics forward, who knows as much about league-mandated fines as he does about technical fouls, learned after last night’s 92-85 victory against the Heat that he was fined $30,000 for his comments following Friday’s win against Toronto.
Here’s another thing Wallace knows a lot about: the appeals process. “I’m definitely taking this one to the appeals board,†he said. “I knew it was going to happen, but I don’t know why (it did). I didn’t talk about no refs. I’m going to get that one back for sure.â€
Wallace was hit with the technical for protesting a call after he set a pick on Toronto’s Hedo Turkoglu. Afterward, he said, “I got a technical tonight for saying he’s a flopper.â€
