NEW YORK (AP) -- Detroit Pistons guard Allen Iverson has been fined $25,000 by the NBA for making inappropriate comments toward a fan in a win at Charlotte. Iverson made the remarks to the fan during the Pistons' 90-86 victory over the Bobcats Saturday.
 
It's the second time Iverson has been disciplined since the Pistons acquired him in a trade with Denver Nov. 3. After skipping practice Thanksgiving, Iverson was fined by the team and benched for the start of Detroit's next game.
