The NBA has fined Detroit coach Stan Van Gundy $US25,000 for claiming superstar LeBron James gets special treatment from referees.
Speaking to ESPN immediately after his Pistons lost 106-101 to the James' Cleveland Cavaliers in game one of their first round playoffs series in Cleveland on Sunday, Van Gundy said referees were reluctant to penalise James, who "gets to do whatever he wants".
"LeBron's LeBron. They're not going to call offensive fouls on him," he said.
