Fake hair, fake defence, fake humility.

I really wish he stops flopping completely. Too good to be doing that cheap shit.

[–] erog84@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Def a flop, but seen much worse not called. Refs must of had the other team for their bets.

[–] dae_giovanni@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

if this is getting called, I assume we're about to see a LOT more flop calls because that was a level 2, max. weak.

[–] KingBoga@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Remember when MJ would flop all the time? Oh wait, neither do I.

[–] KeathleyWR@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's absolutely a flop, but why such a late call?

[–] troubledtimez@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

he is going to need to speak to Le Manager

I think he was selling it a bit.

I don't mind a player letting a guy knock them down and take the bump: That's just letting physics do its work. But LeBron started falling it seemed a bit before the contact even got there.

My issue here is how late the call was. The Lakers had already brought the ball up and were setting a play. Either call it in the moment, or don't call it at all (unless of course there is a challenge).

This is one of LeFlop's less egregious flops. I wish everyone got called more across the board on the bad ones

I got my swim trunks. And my flippy floppies!

If there’s the rare but amazing “double flop” do the flops offset? What about the even rarer “triple-flop”?

[–] ljrubbo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He definitely sold it but at least there was contact and a decent performance. If anything I’d happily have this be a be a no call of it meant we could get rid of the dramatic head fakes people do. They’ll act like they just got uppercut, but the replay shows a couple inches of air between the defender and the ball handler.

This just made the ref look stupid. No affect at all on game flow and a "Look at me!" moment. Pretty pathetic.

[–] gcoles@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They should go back and comb through games for these calls handing out techs.

[–] WolverineLong1430@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

AD flops a lot too. Especially during the Sixers game, he was on a mission to flop on Embidd all day. Pathetic. Wish they were consistent with this rule. And Lakers coach ‘we don’t coach flopping’ LeFlop? 😂

Used to be called taking a charge

Coming from the NHL to the NBA is wild

The refs in the NHL are wildly incompetent

NBA refs are good but obviously try to impact the game in a more critical way
