Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle Unleashes Fury on NBA’s Controversial Tanking Fine—What This Could Mean for the League’s Future
As the NBA faces ongoing concerns about tanking, Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle fired back at the league over its recent $100,000 Player Participation Policy fine, calling the discipline “ridiculous” and “shocking.”
During a radio interview with 93.5 The Fan Tuesday, Feb. 24, Carlisle publicly addressed the fine for the first time and centered his rebuke around the availability of guard Aaron Nesmith during a Feb. 3 game against the Jazz, a 131-122 Utah victory.
