[h1]Unidentified Player: Lakers Paid $50kFor Game 5 Win[/h1]
Phil Jackson and the Lakers were fined $25k apiece as a punishment for his comments regarding the officiating in Game 4.
At least one member of the Nuggets believed those comments factored into how Game 5 was called.
"The Lakers paid $50,000 to win that game. They got their money's worth," said a Denver player, not wanting to be identified for fear ofretribution from the league.
