After chasing a loose ball in Miami on Wednesday, Dillon Brooks was fined $35,000 for shooting a sideline cameraman, but supporters are split on whether or not the Memphis Grizzlies swingman deserved the punishment. In the second quarter of the Grizzlies' 138-119 loss to the Heat, there were two:40 left. John Konchar of Memphis saved the ball from falling out along the baseline and then flinging it across the court across the scorer's table. Brooks was convicted of the save the ball himself, but an official decided it out by a different individual. Brooks' momentum carried him over the sideline, where he collided with the cameraman and then proceeded to shove the man to the ground with his left arm.
