Indiana Pacers guard, Paul George was fined $35,000 for publicly using harsh and improper words on NBA officials during a live post-game interview after his teams victory against the Brooklyn Nets.

George said " the stripes were terrible...we had to go out and just play. We knew the way the game was going and the way they were calling it we had to just play. Its frustrating...hopefully the league does a better job in looking at sh*t like this."

During the game against Brooklyn Nets, George had 23 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists. You can see the interview for yourself below.
