He'll get in some trouble. Perhaps suspended for the remainder of the postseason. There aren't many games left and he may or may not have had another assignment or two.
For those who don't know what he did, SportsCenter is showing a clip of the crew approaching the table at halftime of the Boston/Orlando game and a fan rises behind the table and is yelling at them. DeRosa has the ball and he tosses it to the fan, who catches it and throws it back. The fan is obviously upset with the referees and screaming at them the whole time.
I understand how Joe felt, and it was amusing to see what he did, but as a professional one can't get involved with the fans, especially if the interaction constitutes tossing a physical object at the person.
