Nets lead league in flops: Wallace fined $5,000 for taking dive against Miami

Gerald Wallace this week joined fellow Nets forward Reggie Evans as the only players to be fined $5,000 for flopping under the NBA’s new rules regarding ”any physical act that appears to have been intended to cause the referees to call a foul on another player.”
