Do the Thunder have what it takes to reach the Finals?<\/p>\n

Oklahoma City has the pieces\u2014but do they have the experience to win three playoff series?<\/p>\n

There has been no shortage of technical fouls in these NBA playoffs, as emotions run high and players grow tired of the same opponents.<\/p>\n

There already have been small dust-ups across multiple series \u2014 the Warriors-Rockets<\/a>, Knicks-Pistons, Pacers-Bucks, Nuggets-Clippers and Lakers-Timberwolves have each seen players scrap, to varying degrees.<\/p>\n

In particular, Monday night\u2019s Golden State-Houston game saw multiple stoppages<\/a> during which officials reviewed extracurricular activity; Rockets forward Tari Eason and guard Dillon Brooks and Warriors<\/a> guard Stephen Curry and forward Draymond Green were each assessed a tech \u2014 and that was in the second quarter, alone.<\/p>\n

In the third quarter, the Warriors were even called for a delay of game technical foul, though that one was not assessed to any player.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything you need to know about how technical fouls work in the NBA playoffs:<\/p>\n

How do technical fouls work in the 2025 NBA playoffs?<\/p>\n

All technical fouls from the regular season reset at the start of the playoffs, which means that all players participating start with a clean slate. Whereas a 16th technical foul in the regular season would trigger a suspension, the number in the postseason is seven, with multiple suspensions possible with additional infractions.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, there are fines and additional consequences that arise from each technical foul assessed in the postseason.<\/p>\n

The NBA, however, has the option to rescind technical fouls on review<\/a>, as it does in the regular season.<\/p>\n

What is the discipline for technical fouls in the 2025 NBA Playoffs?Technical fouls Nos. 1 and 2 result in a fine of $2,000 per infraction.Technical fouls Nos. 3 and 4 result in a fine of\u00a0$3,000 per infraction.Technical fouls Nos. 5 and 6 result in a fine of $4,000 per infraction; the NBA will send a warning letter to the offending player upon reaching his fifth technical of the playoffs.Technical foul No. 7 results in a fine of $5,000 and a one-game suspension.Each additional technical foul results in a fine of $5,000.Each two additional technical fouls \u2014 Nos. 9, 11, 13 and so on \u2014 will trigger a suspension in addition to the $5,000 fine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Do the Thunder have what it takes to reach the Finals?
