The NBA fines the spurs but not the heat for resting starters. Hmmm

It looks bad...
but is there a difference in flying your starters back home in the middle of a road trip during the first of the season and resting them once you've locked up everything you can in the playoffs?
Were the Heat stars in the building?
I've been busy all weekend so I've not watched any ball...
but I remember that Stern was pissed over the Spurs because they were not in attendance so the fans couldn't see them, ask for autographs or talk to the press ON TOP OF not playing.
I don't want to side with the Heat...
but I can see a stark difference in these two situations if in fact the Heat players were on the sidelines.

Also, it is my understanding that these players were listed on the injury report unlike the Spurs.
