Hilarious stuff...
These players should feel like asses.

Some flop city, Tony P and others in there.

[Al Thornton]

kind of insane. how would tony parker have to pay $5000 for getting fouled when they are admitting in that video he got fouled? who gives a fck if you embellish real contact as long it is real contact.

[coin24]

They should have showed the Bosh one or one of LeBrons classic flails after no contact

Not sure how theyre going to review it? After the game then fine said player? Does each instance get put on report or does someone review every game???

I think its a positive move though, watching the Clippers pull that shit every game last season was disgraceful.. Miami werent much better either..

[Poetry]

Hard to believe it ever got to this point. The elite players should be ashamed of themselves for resorting to this.

[kNIOKAS]

Right. Very expected...

I can see what's going on there, you can exaggerate contact and move in a way you are pushed, fall in a direction you were hit if you don't add to it (flailing arms, head etc.). You can act a glass doll if you want to, but don't add to it...

Alternative link? This fucker doesn't want to open.

I can see it already.. I really am happy they've done something to address flopping, but there's going to be a lot of **** storms throughout the season of people getting fined who claim that the rules aren't clear/specific.

I like it.

just open it with a video player... or save target as might work

If the Refs actually called it the way it's supposed to be called, then none of this would have gotten to this point....

Chicken or the egg....?

They used to, but its extremely hard to ref a game and a lot of them are so used to no flopping or low quality flopping so when players flop good they will blow their whistle.

We will provably see more skilled flopping in the future.I guess I would rather watch a great actor then a bad flopper

It will be fun.
But I am more interested in if superstars will get away with flopping. Like (FOR EXAMPLE, NOTHING SERIOUS) a blatent and obvious Lebron flop going unpunished/ignored.

Its gonna be a fun 82 game season.

So much clipper red in that video. Even a few that they said would not be fined even though it was an attempt to draw attention.

Josh Smith and Reggie Evans should be ashamed.

[EnoughSaid]

@ that Chris Paul flop.
