Embiid lookin like he tore Danny Green’s ACL, MCL, PCL, Meniscus, and shorts inseam all in a single flop.
Don’t flop, y’all.

NBA should handout suspensions for flopping. Nothing else will curb it.

It gets rewarded so players are gonna do it. Players will stop if the league don't reward it or better yet penalize it.

Long, unpaid, shameful suspensions.
First offense / season:
3 games unpaid suspension, $25,000 fine
Second offense / season:
7 games unpaid suspension and additional $50,000 fine.
Third offense / season:
20 games unpaid suspension and additional $75,000 fine.
That would straighten

I support it. Flopping is the worst thing about today's game, and it's out of control. It takes a ton away from the sport. Screw the floppers. Fine them, supspend them, flog them....no punishment is too harsh.

Absolutely. Probably the only time I will agree with you. Watching today's game was just annoying with all the ***** ass flopping from both teams.
I would say:
1st flop - Warning
2nd - 1 game suspension
3rd - 2 game suspension
4th - 3 game suspension + $500K fine
5th and onwards - 5 game suspension + 1 game per flop (after 5) + $500K per flop
All these are suspensions without pay, BTW.

The worst is guys who dish a lot of contact themselves and flop at the end of drives. Luka, LeBron, Westbrook, Harden etc. At least with the trae or Iverson types featherweights they didn't trick you by acting tough only to bitch out at the end. They were just generally small and skilled in their falling.

WB and LeBron, you see probably 1 flop every 10 games. It's not different for your lover. Dude used to elbow people like he was in the UFC on the offensive end and always flailed his arms like a ballerina.
Case in point:

Pound for pound LeBron is one of the worst floppers of all time my guy. He has an Oscar worthy highlight reel of flops so notorious its become a meme.
Overall though I don't like anybody who relies on rim running and flopping. Its a joke form of basketball.

He has egregious ones, but lets not act like Kobe doesn't flop more than him. In fact, Kobe flailed on literally half his shots and I'm not exaggerating. The only difference is that Kobe doesn't have a rabid hate base (like you with LeBron) dedicated to him.
As I said, LeBron has one every couple of games, but Kobe flailed multiple times a game.

What's worse about this play, is that not only did he flop from a light tap from his own teammate, but the ref called a technical against the Raps on that.
There's no justification for LeBron's flopping. This also makes it near impossible to respect a blatant cheater.

Don’t flop, y’all.
Except he was tripped by Heat #2 - Gabe Vincent. Wasn't called, still a trip.
As for Danny Green, this is karma for his cheapshot on Klay Thompson- a mid air foul, unnecessary, had no chance at contesting the dunk - that took Klay out of the game a long time.

To you maybe.
Is it excessive enough to somebody like Harden ? Making Harden money ?

Some guys need to flop, otherwise nothing is called for them.
You push Trae Young with x amount of pressure, he legit goes flying.
You push Embiid with the same amount of pressure, he barely felt it.
Both are legit fouls, but one will not be called if Embiid doesn't exaggerate the contact.

that's more light contact on the foot than a trip
embiid's bitch instincts are to fall
and there is no karma you dumb sob

sometimes they are legit sometimes they aren't
jokic is less dependent on modern pussification than embiid or giannis

Remember they started that fine thing? My theory is that the reason all that went away and the spotlight was taken away from flopping is because CP3 been the Pres of NBAPA for years now. Flopping has allowed this man to extend his career.

All joking aside, Post's low quality contributions are unfortunately part of being on an unmoderated forum.
