When you don't get to the line, and you game is predicated upon FTAs, then it's bad, and always has been.
There is a difference in not being fouled and making it look like you were, and being fouled and exaggerating it so it gets called. The first is a flop, the second isn't.
Harden is not nearly as big a flopper as anyone on the clippers team, harden is crafty with the ball and exposes it to defenders to trick them into reaching which results in a foul. Tim duncan has always done this and ron artest used to do this alot also, the difference is they knew when the calls were going their way or not and adjusted if they werent they made sure to focus on the shot instead of the call. Harden hasnt gotten when to forget about the whistle down yet but hes nowhere near the flopper people make him to be. Thats why they say Harden has that old mans game because hes so crafty not because he flops. Cp3 is notorious for running down court and finding a big man to get in front of and flop for a call, blakes problem isnt really flopping as much as it is body control.
Why has this thread become Harden's thread? It's about Griffin getting away with illegally using his off hand.
i remember Yao got this call in many ocasions. I believe only super stars are exempt from getting these calls.
Lol good one.....i just don't like when ppl don't appreciate the greatest player in a rockets uniform in 20 years, and instead throw him under the bus even she manages to play well
