    Probably has to do with Reggie saying "he'll probably get a call from the league office for flopping" on national tv.

    Don't forget Kia is a major sponsor of the league too .... I'm surprised when they actually call him for a foul.
    How bout the play where he bulldozed into Harden with a shoulder who fell in the lane .... Shocked they didn't fine Harden for getting knocked on his ass. That was the very definition of a foul by Griffin - contact that gives an advantage.


    Has anyone other than Terry and Brewer been fined for a flop so far in the playoffs ?!

    You gotta be a superstar to flop without being fined. AKA CP3.

    Flop? Sure? More accurate to call it an embellishment. That still could be called an offensive foul.

    Good for him! Mission accomplished, we got the ball back for a measly 5k. We need to do more of this next game.

    Worth the money. That was a key turning point in the game when Brewer and Howard started taking over.

    My thoughts exactly. What's the point in fining a player for embellishing?
    They should be fined for creating the impression of a foul only when their was non, and it looked like the foul on that play was legit.

    Funny, Rockest only team to be punished in the play-offs for flopping. Yes that was definitely one, but crazy how they let so much stuff go..

    Brewer does this anytime an opponent touches him. Even as a Rockets fan I get a little tired of it.

    Guess they missed the one where Blake challenged Dwight, Dwight's hand barely grazed Blake's cheek and yet Blake sold it like he got stabbed in the eye. Believe it was in the 4th.
