Is Harden The Worst Flopper In the League?

[Vragrant]

Well, that title belongs to Chris Paul, but man is he up there. Some of those flops I've seen him do in this playoff run are downright disgusting. The thing is I WANT to like his game but its so hard.

[unbreakable]

yes he is ..flopped about 3-5 times tonight but only got 1 whistle (the flop on wade)..

glad the refs are catching on

[gilalizard]

Yeah, it gets obnoxious watching him play. He seems to try a flop on literally every play.

It's a shame, because it's great fun to watch him just play (on the rare occurrence he does).

[Cangri]

I'm glad the refs didn't buy that bullsht, that's just a pssy way to win games.

[dunksby]

Wade and he gets the calls too so that makes him 10 times worse.

[Derrick]

He's on the opposite ends of flops too. Mario Chalmers, Wade, Ginobili to name a few. He gets what he deserves.

[bada bing]

not even close. Wade and griffin are among the top in the league in that category.

[dynasty1978]

He flops to no end, he was on the ground constantly in the Lakers series.

[lebeast666]

lol I have no respect for that fahggot harden flopping all day

[LAClipsFan33]

He is a true fahggot, but as a Clipper fan...Chris Paul is the biggest flop, p*ssy fahggot in the NBA. It pisses me off. Sometimes he eats turnovers trying to get a flop call

Atleast Ginobili's good at it. He didn't invent it but he sure perfected it. He's actually skilled at it and knows when to use it. That's not to say it wouldn't piss me off if he was playing my team, but atleast he doesn't look as pathetic as Harden and some of these other dbags.

I swear some of these guys look like they don't even have their mind in the game, they're just herky jerking all over the court hoping for a call.

[EricGordon23]

I used to like harden but with all the flopping i've seen him do in this post season its made me dislike him quite a bit which is a shame.

I agree, Harden's flop on lbj opened up a open shot for Bosh because Collison had to go help. :facepalm

[NumberSix]

He's bad, but he's not Clipper level.

[LAClipsFan33]

He's bad, but he's not Clipper level.

This.

[chips93]

its not just the flopping, on offense, he'll just run straight into back pedaling defenders, and get the call, like very game

it baffles me, not just how he keeps getting the call (ginobili gets the same call/makes the same move very frequently), but how defenders dont draw more charges no him

[IGotACoolStory]

How can you watch the Finals and come to this conclusion? Battier is far, far, far worse.

That wrinkly head ****. I want to punch him in the face his game is so annoying.

[flipogb]

Chris Paul flops on game winners, hes more of an offensive flopper tho .
Harden flops on both ends and runs into peoples arms

[NumberSix]

Of all people, you hate Shane Battier? :confusedshrug:

[SevereUpInHere]

I'm a huge Harden fan, but he's getting pretty bad. There was one stupid one where he flopped about 5 seconds after he hit a 3. Really needs to cut that sh*t out. He's not Griffin or Paul level by any means, but if he gets much worse, I'ma have to hand in my fan membership

[IGotACoolStory]

He seems like a good guy and all, but the guy flops on everything. 3pt shots, 2 feet away from the offensive player, on rebounds, on the bench, in the bathroom, in the pool. It's damn annoying.

Harden too.


Flopping is out of control.

Yeah he did it alot in the regular season but in the playoffs I don't even remember a blatant flop, Harden just does it every game, it's disgusting.

[livingby3's]

he's the closest thing ever to a ginobili

[Lebron23]

Black Ginobili.

[Mr. Jabbar]

The funny thing is, refs actually fell for those flops, but the game was rigged :lol

[gilalizard]

It's pretty much Wade, Ginobili, Harden and Paul vying for the top spot.

And each gives it their all. These guys pour effort into flopping like MJ poured effort into winning.

LeBron gets an honorable mention here. He's not as consistent. But he's so incredibly gifted, yet painully obvious at times while still getting the call, that his flops demand recognition for their sheer shamelessness and the ref bias they receive.

Pierce as well. He doesn't seem to flop quite as much the past couple of years as he used to, but his body of work rivals the best.

[G-train]

Easily Manu. He has an incredible body of work.

[Floppy]

Pretty sure you'll see more Harden flops than Manu flops per game. And he's far more annoying with his constant provocations.

[derb2k2]

i didnt watch Harden much throughout the season, but man is he disgusting. I hope Udonis lays him out for real. Wade doesn't flop much, what he does do however, is fall after every layup and that really is annoying.

[LJJ]

Not worse than Wade, Lebron, Griffin, Paul, Maggette, and a slew of other guards.


Curious how Griffin is really the only major big man flopper in the league.

[Fiasco]

He is a true fahggot, but as a Clipper fan...Chris Paul is the biggest flop, p*ssy fahggot in the NBA. It pisses me off. Sometimes he eats turnovers trying to get a flop call

lmao yes

[Fiasco]

You're joking, right?

[SpecialQue]

That flop on a wide-open 3 last night was a masterpiece.

[Kurosawa0]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGzSNsPafY0

I'm not sure I've seen a worse flop than that.

[tmacattack33]

He's pretty bad. Definitely one of the three worst. I'd say he is the worst after watching game 2 last night. What the F was he doing out there.

[dunksby]

How can you watch the Finals and come to this conclusion? Battier is far, far, far worse.

This, Mfer is trying to get cheap ass charges ALL GAME, he sets bullshit screens and dives back like he has been shot in the chest with a sawed off shotgun or something.

How are those cheap charges?? EVERY player in the league do it, it's completely legal.

[lilgodfather1]

The flop is strong for the Heat. I think the dark side of the flop (Heat) has more power than the light side of the flop (Thunder). OKC doesn't have a skilled flopi master other than Harden, where as the Heat happen to have multiple flopi masters; Wade, LeBron, Battier, Chalmers, and a flopi apprentice Chris Bosh.

[dunksby]

Flopping is not illegal, Harden does it, Battier does it too why the double standard?

:applause: :applause: :lol

Because he constantly does it every game, he's looking to flop on minimal contact.

Same with Battier, and are we forgetting Wade? He schooled Harden last night in flopping.

[keep-itreal]

Harden too.

I'm not sure I've seen a worse flop than that.

GOAT flop. It's too bad the NBA hasn't handed out big fines for flopping.

[Cangri]

GOAT flop. It's too bad the NBA hasn't handed out big fines for flopping.
And then I hear people say names like Wade, James, Battier, and these guys have never flopped like that, it's clear he's the worst flopper out there.

[Droid101]

Wade, Raja Bell, Manu Ginobili, Andy Varejo, Battier are all worse than Harden.

But Harden is quickly moving up the ranks with his recent performances.

[ChandlerParsons]

Wade, Chris Paul, Ginobli, Harden, that's some of them right there.

[NugzFan]

Flopping is not illegal, Harden does it, Battier does it too why the double standard?

oh god...you sound like CF86 now :rolleyes:

[asdf1990]

chalmers is a big time flopper also, his flopping usually costs the heat like 4-8 points every game

[Sampsonsimpson]

Anyone remember this gem from a couple weeks ago? Arguably the two best floppers in the game going head to head, trying to "outflop" each other if you will.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQ247wtv8hU

[Sampsonsimpson]

Europe is still on the cutting edge of flopping though, there's a reason why you always hear people talking about how good they are at developing their young players.
