They could not afford a fine like that
He was absolutely not out of control. He stopped his momentum without the help of the defender, and the defender inexplicably went flying as if he was hit by an NFL linebacker.That was a charge on Lipsey. Good call. I don't think the game overall has been officiated well, which is obviously why folks are pissed, but the guy was in great defensive position and Lipsey drove in uncontrolled.
Agreed, the consistency is terrible.
