    Dwyane doesn't flop, he gets violently fouled. The man is a hero and a national treasure.

    Wonder how many of those flops actually hurt and added to his ability to be injury prone. When he and Lebron flop....they really FLOP.

    Like dude you dont have to fall that hard to flop.

    He is also a consummate professional. I hope he retires a Flopper.

    I agree. Just because Jason Kidd asked the question doesn't mean it is not a valid question. He should answer it.

    imo flopping and superstar calls are the biggest negatives to the NBA...

    idk why espn doesn't do something good for the sport and do a little 2 min segment each night laughing at fools for cheating (cause that's what flopping is - cheating...). Players don't like to be ridiculed...

    and DWade just avoids the question....

    The league is all about the top 10%. That is what brings in the ticket sales, merchandise sales and advertisement. The better the stats they have, the better for the NBA. There can only be one Championship and it will be awarded every year regardless, so the NBA doesn't care about winning. There is endless amount of revenue dollars and the NBA wants to collect every penny they can possibly get.

    Unfortunately the NBA is short sighted and fail to realize that with a better and more equal playing field, they would have more fans. Sports in general are becoming a joke and more and more people are no longer tuning in. THis is why the NBA is so desperate to reach out to emerging markets over seas.

    I think the problem is that the NBA doesn't seem to enforce the flop warnings equally for stars. Did Wade even get a flop warning last year at all?

    I hope the referee was reprimanded for the top one. How do you call a foul when you're not even looking at the play? This is rhetorical since the NBA officiating is by far the worst out of all sports.

    What the hell happened to Wade?
    Yeah this guy has always been taken care of well by the refs, but that's not really his fault.
    He used to get his fouls much like Harden; off of drives and crafty footwork in the paint and forcing contact.

    Now he just flops around like a fish. :(
    This dude used to be my favorite player.

    I miss the old Wade!
