Flopping is the softest tactic in any sport. It is so annoying. Even when players from my teams do it

Motherfuckers leaned in to their Hollywood identity. Every foul someone is rolling around like Neymar.

The NBA desperately needs to do something about all the flopping. And intentionally trying to draw a foul should be a foul itself. Can we please just focus on basketball? Please?

Goofy ass team. I don’t know how you can actually watch the lakers and find them flopping for 48 minutes entertaining

There are some things you can’t teach.

Guys be easy… they are relying on lil AR here to win them a chip. It’s gunna take some … er creativity? Gamesmanship? Whatever we’re calling it now

Pretty sure Draymond’s finger hit him in the nose on this play…

You might not teach it but your GM definitely has a type

His head snapped back so easily there.

Players on both teams flop lol

Does anyone have the clip of Bron just falling down just before halftime of Game 2? Post that to the Lakers sub

Tbf didn’t dray did catch him on the face on this play?

This is not a great example, imagine getting raked across the nose by a man as large as Dray.

Stop y’all, he got clipped on the nose and if you’ve ever had that happened you know it can be a stinger. Lakers still be flopping though but bad example right here

Kerr is right that blatant flops should be technicals, but he didn’t go far enough. They should be technicals that can be assessed after the fact.
If a replay review shows a blatant flop, that’s a T. If the leage decides after a game that a play have been called a flop, add a T to their suspension tally.

That video is a bad example. Draymond actually did get him on the face there by accident; you could see it on the close up replay.

Definitely a flop. Ever notice how Steph falls down on 95% of his shot attempts?

Also Darvin Ham: “We gameplan around fouls and the free throw line.”

Lmao, dude actually got swiped on the face. That shit hurts in real life, this video doesn’t do its justice.

I mean not the best example, Reaves did get hit on the nose there. I don’t think either of these teams is known for flopping. I mean compare this series to Embiid vs Smart, or to a lesser degree Brunson vs Lowry. Foul baiting all over the place in the East.

He clearly swipes his face here. Find a better example lol

I started laughing so hard when they showed this. Dude is lying through his teeth

I’m not even invested in this series but it’s so painfully obvious none of y’all have ever taken a shot to the nose. The cope is crazy
