Nellie fined $15K

Interesting:

The Golden State Warriors were fined $15,000 for public comments made by coach Don Nelson regarding Oden and Durant in an interview posted on SI.com on March 9.

League rules prohibit teams from having any kind of communication with players who have remaining college eligibility.

Very strange rule, if you ask me.  Also fined were Michael Jordan of the Betcats and Danny Ainge of the unlucky Celtics.

Small note (because I might not have enough words yet for this diary), SI lists the teams as being fined, whereas espn told me today that the people (Jordan, Ainge, Nelson) were fined.
