That would just ruin the game. They'd be stopping play every other possession.

Heat games would literally take 4.5 hours.

His fine would probably be every dollar he's made since being drafted in the NBA...........billions.

I didn't want to start a new thread, so I'll just post this here.
LeBron is so full of shit it's not even funny.
Any player that says there's nothing wrong with flopping and that it's a useful "tactic" is probably a flopper.
So it's kinda funny when LeBron came out with this gem:
"It's kind of the same as when people said I was overrated, I have the same response," James said. "I don't need to flop. I play an aggressive game but I don't flop. I've never been one of those guys. I don't need to flop. I don't even know how to do it. So it doesn't mean much to me."
You don't flop? You don't know how to do it? HAHA!
If there's one thing LBJ is a king of, it's flopping. Take a look at the video below. Those aren't even all of the flops he's ever had
[video=youtube;L8rGCH_HRdQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8rGCH_HRdQ[/video]
Look at the flop with Fisher near the end. It's impossible to fight through a screen that LBJ is setting because he falls the second there is contact made. Sometimes it legit looks like the player knocks him down... but that's because LBJ is an amazing flopper. And if a flopper is a good flopper, that means they have experience doing it or maybe even practice it.... which is pretty pathetic.
Flopping ruins the game. Who the hell likes watching guys fall when they don't even gets touched? Then they proceed to act like they're going to be out for the rest of the season before they stand up a minute later and continue playing the game with no issues.
I swear, my skim crawls when I see so much flopping the NBA. It's the worst when I watch Miami play. It's like they take an hour out each day to practice flopping. They all fuckin do it. LBJ, Wade, Bosh, Chalmers, Battier, etc.
It's mind boggling to me that Miami flops so much. They're a very talented team and they probably don't even need to flop to win.. yet they continue to do it anyway.

and this is my biggest gripe about Lebroad and the Miami floppers! LJ's character just sucks for a so called superstar! He's a liar, a cheater, and is a poor role model for kids, imo. I'd take a Durant over a LJ anyday in terms of character!

All they have to do is stop calling fouls just because someone falls on the floor. Look at the impact not the result. That is the only realistic way to fix flopping. There are times where there is no possible way that a player should have fallen down and they still call it.
Players getting backed down in the post.
Little guards knocking over Forwards and centers on screens.
Establishing post position.
Refs just have to relearn not to look at the result and look at the impact and then ask "does that make sense?". They will cure most of the flopping. There is no need to do in game punishment. Just expect players to play stronger. If they don't play strong they hurt their team because they are on the ground and the play did not stop.

Yet, they just got fined for ONE!!! flop during the entire year.
Yeah, I honestly don't know how the NBA does this whole fining players for flopping thing. There have been so many blatant flops this season that went unpunished. Even some Bulls players haven't been fined for flopping. I don't really get it.

I don't know about your Hitler and Tojo thing, but you can save that for your other MB. :bizarro:
But, I would take Rodman over Lebroad when it comes to basketball character.

Figures you'd see it like that. Proves my point. I pretty much just went with your flow, but with just a little more class. Pretty much like MJ having more class then Lebroad. And on that note, I'm outa here. Better luck next time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They reallly never wanted to do anything about it. They just wanted it to look like they were doing something about it.
