For "unnecessary and excessive contact". Here's the hit:

Little curious that Pierce got fined 15k for that, but Barnes got 25k for not leaving the arena on time.

Yes, curious to say the least. Should have been a game's suspension as well. The NBA really needs to stop this preferntial treatment.

I thought a flagrant 2 was an auto 1 game suspension?
