You beat me to it Ginobili is just terrible the slightest contact and he goes flying across the court.

No flop in the NBA has been as bad as this one. This is the single worst flop in the history of the NBA.

Yeah that's pretty bad but Baron Davis doesn't have a reputation of flopping like Dirk and Manu.

NBA is going to overtake Football in flopping. Players still flop in big footbal games, but they barely get the call anymore. In the NBA, if you even look at the ref they give you the call.

Ronaldo was flopping all over against Wigan and didn't get a call. Yet the spurs were flopping NON STOP and constantly got them.

The flopping in the NBA is starting to rival the rediculous shit you see in soccer. The flopping and the fact that the last 3 minutes of a game takes 30 minutes to complete make basketball almost unwatchable to me.

Flopping is part of the game, you need to sell it to the ref. Smart players can draw so many fouls by doing this.

You really have to hand it to the floppers in soccer. The way they roll around in pain for 5 minutes and get carried out on a stretcher. I love the sport, basketball too, but goddamn it gets ridiculous for both sports.
