What did Gobert get fined for? Is he not allowed to touch an opposing player during a fight, even if he is trying to break it up (a reasonable, though inflexible rule)?
From what I could see, it looked like he was trying to grab Thomson around the chest to drag him away, but misjudged the height difference, went in too high, and had to move his hand down.
As a big man stepping into a scuffle with two smaller people, you need to know how to control your body to avoid getting your arm around their neck. If you don't have that control, then use the time during your suspension to learn it.
Remember, these are professional athletes. They train every day on how to use their body properly.
