    The NBA is probably worse than soccer already in this regard.

    I just can't watch anymore without getting very aggravated at the outdated and hopelessly subjective rules.

    This is a LOT worse. CP3 elbows Marc Gasol and its a foul on Marc Gasol for standing there.

    At least refs didn't call the Wade flop which is fantastic reffing.

    CP3 GOT A FOUL CALL FOR FLOPPING AND ELBOWING SOMEONE.

    Wade is a POS. The heat are actually like 10-1 without him. Wade makes the King look bad.

    Chris Paul seriously makes me want to punch babies. Everything about him is so goddamned b****-made. It's sad that someone so skilled can be such a ****ing pansy-ass cheater.

    Maybe the Memphis announcer can get his son Michael Oher to kick Paul's ass.

    I still don't get what's stopping the NBA from handing out techs/fines for flopping after the game. I don't blame the refs since it's a fast game, but come on. It's become an embarrassment to the game.

    can you guys imagine having CP3 on our team having to watch that garbage every night?? I mean having lowry do it is bad enough, but cp3 takes it to another level.

    I doubt the NBA will ever fine flops.

    Flopping is an easy way to control the game.

    If the player flops, the ref could choose to call it, but the fault will lie on the flopper and not on the ref.

    I am not a Wade fan. But that flop wasn't nearly as bad as some other ones.

    I am glad they did not call it, but I wish they had the stones to call a "T" on Wade for flopping.

    yeah i dont see what the fuss is about...thats nothing...keep in mind its easier to know someone down when they step up to you like wade did, since he can't anchor himself down like when he's further away...

    It's a bad angle as well, cant tell how hard Bass backed into him. At worse, he timed the "charge" perfectly and tried to sell it. Could be a lot worse.

    Wasn't a flop, it's called drawing a charge. A flop is what Chris Paul does
