It just scrolled across the bottom of the NBAtv station that the league is doubling the $$ penalty for technical fouls this year, and for every 2 technical fouls there will be a one game suspension. I didn't get all the details, but Coaches fouls will cost $2000 for the first 5 fouls, Players cost $5,000 each,with one game suspension after 2.
I am not sure how much fun basketball is going to be to watch this year....
