MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The NBA has fined Memphis Grizzlies guard Tony Allen $5,000 for violating the league's anti-flopping rule during Game 2 of the Western Conference finals against the San Antonio Spurs.
Officials called a flagrant foul on Manu Ginobili for grabbing Allen's arm as the Grizzlies' guard drove to the basket with 26.1 seconds left in regulation Tuesday night. Allen hit the court and rolled over, holding his hands to his head. Replay showed Allen never hit his head on the court.
Allen hit both free throws, and the Grizzlies also got the ball to force overtime. The Spurs won 93-89 in overtime.

I'd flop every time for $5,000 to help my team win a playoff game.
Plus, Tony just needs to avoid going out on the town a couple weekends to make up for it.

$5000 probably doesn't even cover one night out for an NBA player

Have Paul and LeBron ever been fined?

It was definitely a flop but why haven't they fined anyone else? (Especially the clips)

Were the refs that called the flagrant (even after a review) fined?
