    Do players eventually get suspended for flopping or do they only get fined?

    They were hoping Harden to miss the free throw and catch up the game by shooting 3. You will see this kind of games a lot particularly in the playoff.

    CHAMPIONSHIP


    jk But I agree with the offensive call of Irving, he created the contact.

    I think it was a fore arm around the belt and some how Lin's head snapped back and he fell over.

    hell no the popular players never get warned. Blake Griffin or CP3 would've been suspended multiple games by now.

    Good win. but kept us nervous from the beginning to the end. Why are we playing badly against bad teams? The lowly Cavs? Come on, should have been a blown-out.

    Good: moved the ball,made some important shots and rebounded ok

    Bad: kept missing some wide open 3's ,Turnovers

    Ugly: the start of the game

    Overall: Win

    Dude lol dont even try. That was the biggest flop lol. Lin knew that cos he keeps getting hit in the head that refs are just gonna buy it again after Bucks and game before that and all the nose bleeds. But that was a flop man haha you cant find an excuse for it.

    Can't stress it enough, this is why having a superstar separates the haves from the have nots. You don't win games like this without a superstar. Rox are so much more interesting these days. The future is bright.

    There are eventual suspensions down the road under the new rules.

    Harden had 16 pts with 6:35 left, we were up 4. He finishes with 29 we win by 8. He deserves a ZJ.

    theres a difference between popular players and superstars. Superstars get the breaks. popular players dont. Lin will get fined with no hesitation.
