Brandon Jennings fined for "Tweet"
The NBA announced today that Bucks rookie guard Brandon Jennings has been fined $7,500 for posting a message on his Twitter account in violation of NBA rules. On Saturday, December 12, a message was posted on Jennings’ Twitter account immediately following the Bucks’ 108-101 double overtime win over Portland at the Bradley Center.
Jennings “tweeted” the following message in the locker room immediately after the game:
‘Back to 500. Yess!!! "500" means where doing good. Way to Play Hard Guys.’

He made a tweet celebrating the win and praising his teammates, and he gets fined $75,000. Something is wrong with that picture, David Stern needs to put his dictator manual away.

Why should you have to wait a half hour after a big win to celebrate it on twitter? That's absolutely ridiculous. You just won a big game....you're excited. I guess you can't share your excitement with others on twitter right after a big win? Stupid stupid stupid.
I don't know about you guys, but after the Browns beat the Steelers last week, I didn't wait a half hour to celebrate it.......one of the dumbest rules I've EVER heard of.

My bad, saw an extra 0 lol. 7500 is still too much for celebrating a win and praising his teammates.
