This is obviously a flop but how do the refs decide which ones to call and when to call it?

[–] NoKnowsPose@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is the problem with the rule that so many of us saw coming. When it comes to flops, there are many more that are much worse than this. I have no problem with this being called, but watching other super obvious ones not be called makes me feel weird about it.

same with travels and moving screens. just the way she goes

Refs only call flop foul when the player record 10 actual flops.

[–] Shhadowcaster@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It's a blowout in favor of the team it's being called on. I assume that made it a little easier for the ref to feel comfortable making the call.

Depends on the OverUnder on Fanduel probably.

I'm pretty sure these calls come from HQ, right? That's why it took so long to call it. Now why isn't it more consistent is a better question.

Lakers were 21 points up. Safe time to call it.

The real question is why the fuck Lebron thinks he needs to flop against the Pistons.

[–] glockster19m@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Well on this one it's clear they gave him the flop instead of a technical with how long they waited

Vegas over under

[–] Curi0s1tyCompl3xity@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Same way they decide charge and blocking.

Oh…yeah I guess that doesn’t help…
