ORLANDO, Fla. -- The NBA has fined Lakers coach Phil Jackson $25,000 for criticizing the officials during Game 4 of the Finals.

The league also penalized the Lakers $25,000 on Saturday for Jackson's comments, which came during an interview with ABC between the first and second quarters of their 99-91 overtime victory Thursday.

Jackson said there were some "bogus" calls after the Lakers' Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom and Andrew Bynum each picked up two fouls in the first quarter.

Game 5 of the NBA Finals is at 8 p.m. Sunday on ABC.

I knew this was coming as soon as he said it. Sad part about it this has happened before even with other coaches and they let them slide. weird.

Went to game six here in Houston and never realized how big of a man Phil is. Saw him across the way and Phil can fill up a chair. Showing my age but was a Knicks fan growing up but I recall when Phil was thrown out of a game for slapping a ref.  8) Phil was a trip back in the day.  ;D
