    You guys realize the rockets were one of the biggest flopping teams the last 2 years?

    Scola and Martin are definitely floppers, but CP3 and Blake Griffin are taking it to another level.

    Haha yeah, for sure. I never said they aren't worse, but really for years Scola flopped ALL the time. If he missed a rebound he would flop.

    I firmly believe only other teams flop. Do not tell me otherwise.

    Man, but I can't find videos of Scola punching himself in the face and bodyslamming himself afterwards. HAHA

    Scola flopping = "I fell down"
    Blake Griffin flopping = "Fight club"

    if you haven't seen the movie, you won't understand.

    And most people on this board hated the Rockets flopping. So what's your point?

    LMAO this reminds me of Melo getting knocked "unconscious" by Durant's ribcage.

    Stop exaggerating, Blake clearly fell over Love's knee.

    We exaggerate contact.

    CP3, Griffin create contact out of nothing.

    Flops should be considered technical fouls, both during the course of a game and afterwards, in review, by the league. After a certain amount of techs/flops, offending players should pay a large fine. Nobody wants to watch this- bad for everyone, including the league's pockets.

    Griffin fouled himself. He also fouled the game of basketball.

    This reminds me of the game against the Spurs in OT when Duncan was wide open and went up for the shot and lost the ball, and Patrick Patterson was called for the foul. Standing a good 5 feet away. Damn floppers.

    I wouldn't call taking a charge or selling a foul flopping. The infraction is there, it's just good anticipation, and making sure the ref sees it to.

    What Blake did was disgusting.
