That's an interesting question, skimming through https://official.nba.com/rule-no-12-fouls-and-penalties/#flagrantfouls, I wasn't seeing anything about a fine being levied for a flagrant foul 1 (compared to a technical foul or an ejection)
The technical fouls suspension/fine schedule is published here https://official.nba.com/rule-no-12-fouls-and-penalties/#fines, but there doesn't seem to be a similar published schedule for flagrant fouls.
I'm not going to go to the effort of verifying those numbers, but assuming they are correct...
Net calls in team's favor in final two minutes per close game (by NBA admission):
Lakers: +0.42
Warriors: +0.33
Celtics: -0.05 (approximate, number of close games not listed, calculated for 20 close games, will be ~0 at any rate)
T'Wolves: -0.07
Pelicans: -0.11
Bulls: -0.17
Jazz: -0.24
Kings: -0.45
Now, there's 22 more teams, so we can't say for sure we're getting hosed the worst...but from among the teams listed we're nearly twice as hosed as the next-worst team.

It makes me wonder if the NBA has the fix in and it’s not like they haven’t done it before.
is there more to certain highly rated free agents not coming here because they no longer could travel with impunity. Or they would look more normal and not get the foul calls their way anymore.
And make sure you collude with all the channels to not have our games on for the general public to witness their actions.
Most of us remember the hosing we got years ago and the stink still hasn’t gone away.
If we make the playoffs do we really believe if and when we happen to make the a deep run we won’t get shafted. as there is no way no matter how good we are They would let us go to a championship game because it would not let them make the dollars a golden state vs Celtics series would.
