Last night in the nba finals there was a play where dwayne wade reacted in pain to getting hit in the face by a spurs defender and the ref responded by calling a foul. While i rip on nba refs as being the worst in any sport by a long shot this is one area that the league should step in. In the mentioned play the defender came no where near wades face but like the doucher wade is he acted like he had. While the league has taken steps to alleviate the flopping situation assessing fines of 5k and 10k and possible suspension the league needs to hurt them in the place that hurts the most, like charlie kelly says " in the dick" figuratively speaking. Heres what i mean, have an independent rep at each game whos job it is to watch video and if he deems a foul called and that player flops its a techical 2 shots and the ball. After 3 on the season its a 5 game suspension.
Kinda over this thought since the seaaons over but now i can watch a bunch of futbol floppers
Yeah, I hate that flopping has essentially become a defensive strategy; it was even maddening when Vlade did it against Shaq. Defend, dammit, and if you're going to get dominated, at least do it with some dignity.
