Do you respect players that flop?

Someone please post the gif of the four Cavaliers flopping all in one play.

Here's my take: You hate the floppers that flop but love it when they're on your team.
NO.

I'm a big Fisher fan, and I'm glad Fisher is on my team, but I HATE his flopping... EVERY TIME. There has never, EVER been ONE TIME where he flopped and I thought 'Good idea, Fish. We get the ball back, down 1, with so-and-so already fouled out and 12 seconds left. Thank you for that excellent flop, sir.'

No.

No, no, no, NO.

NEVER.

Vlade Divac was the ultimate flopper of all time

You can't blame these players for "acting" so many times in a game...
Blame the NBA for these, I mean you don't need a half-circle inside the paint to determine whether it's Blocking or Charging Foul, very simple..
If the Offensive Player LOWERED his shoulder not "LEANED" and the defender established or planted his FEET that is a Charging Foul..
If the Defensive Player didn't establish or planted his feet and denied the path of the Offensive Player, that is a Blocking Foul..
These Players are just Smart to take advantage of these rules, They should take out this "Half-Circle" in the NBA and let the game evolve especially inside the paint..
I mean thst's the purpose of having 3 referees in the pros right? each one has it's own duty

When someone is shooting and they fall after the release all dramatically and stuff; does that count as a flop?

I have no idea what you are trying to say.

haha i remember baron taking that phantom bullet... stern should implement a committee to review these things, if there's an egregious flop, fine the player. at the very least it'd make players think twice

Hell no, I hated it when Iverson did while he was here.

Most hated flopper for me is Fisher, on the offensive end majority of the times.  He just looks for the foul, not even trying to make the basket.

Also I love when players that are known for flopping get flopped against

Applicable unless you have the shooting form of Reggie Miller/me.

I don't respect the Flop, period.

i want one so bad

anyways this year anderson has changed his game a little from flopping to just goin up and trying to get a piece of the ball...but he is a good actor

What the heck

 

[japanair21]

Baron is

JJ helps us out sometimes with his flopping, but sometimes I think he genuinely gets thrown around since he's about 5'2''.

yes, word to Allen Iverson...


where's the .gif of B. Davis flopping? The one where he gets shot

 

[japanair21]

Anderson Varejao doesn't count as a flopper IMO, he's just soft.

Vlade, now THAT is a flopper.

Anderson is a very good player don't get me wrong, I actually like him.
