    Kevin Martin has, and Reggie Evans has received two (the second means a fine).

    Know how soft he is i would assume he was trying to avoid the hit as much as possible. Its actually pretty funny when i saw the replay lmao!

    the only flop i remember on Knicks games.

    Was that Tyson Chandler s

    When he fell on Lin´s penetration...

    i do not agree with this against PP. No way.

    When coach said you need replace Scola's play I don't think that is what he had in mind.

    That wasn't that bad if Patterson got a warning for that? Reallyy? You mean to tell me Lebron, Scola, Griffen, etc hasn't done that. Patterson could argue that it wasn't a flop

    I would have never suspected a PF that averages going to the freethrow line once every six games would be a flopper.

    looks to me Ppat fell backwards to avoid contact. still a flop tho.
    pretty dangerous sequence, as Tyson nearly stepped on him on the rebound.

    It's kind of tough because when trying to draw a charge, you need to start going down BEFORE the contact occurs. If you don't, you run a higher risk or injuring yourself and the person charging you.

    So I'm not surprised to see guys make mistakes like this when attempting to draw a charge. I'd guess Patterson in this case just didn't realize Chandler was going to stop and not really make contact.

    But it does show how soft/unathletic 2Pat is though. With as slow as Chandler was coming in, he should've went for the block instead.

    Lebron is horrible at flopping.

    Knowing 2Pat he probably was trying to avoid contact.

    I feel like Patrick hasn't been the same since he got hurt his rookie season. He played pretty big that year and took some nasty hits and falls. Now he just seems soft. Like he lost his confidence and never got it back.

    Not that bad of a flop IMO.

    It's only when other team's players do it that makes it bad.
