League fines Lakers coach Jackson 35K for ref rant

Jackson spoke out after the Lakers suffered a lopsided  100-81 defeat to the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday.

Jackson was unhappy about the treatment of his forward Ron  Artest, who was whistled for critical fouls and a  double-technical foul while battling with San Antonio’s Manu  Ginobili.

“On both replays we looked at, Ginobili hooks him and does  this up and under move,” Jackson told the Los Angeles Times on  Sunday. “Obviously the refs just didn’t want the contact at  that time.”
