I can go back to probably the 70s talking about how many times NBA Superstars get calls because you didn't touch them but since they missed that Bunny...Stay Here.
It has been called Floppin' and the BLUEDUDE calls it DUMB SH** or Ghost Calls or even Phantom Calls. It has been around since Scooby Doos went to Leather in the 70s. Pacers Lead Man Frank Vogel even eluded to the fact , " The HEAT are the League's Best Floppers", and then you wonder why Vogel and the Pacers might get the Gas Face in the 2nd Round.
What is Flopper by Definition: To Fall or Lie Down Heavily or Noisily. To move about loosely or limply...from the freedictionary.com
How 'bout the Jonathan's and when you say the Definition I see (with the BLUEDUDE'S Mirror Up) LeBron, I see Wade County, I See Durant, the Truth, Ginobli, and many more.
Logo Commissioner David J. Stern said something to the fact that the game doesn't need it and its is ridiculous. Did you just get Cable and a Flat David J.? Does anyone know how much Stern makes the BLUEDUDE needs to be Commissioner for a full NBA Season and Luxury Suites on me.
The Zen Master Phil Jackson used to use the media to get his Team calls and talk about the Academy Awards that go on in the Logo. Michael Jeffrey Jordan led the logo All-Time in missed gimme's and ole Logo Officials and two of the best ever Ronnie Nunn or Jess Kersey would not even be looking at 23 and say those dreaded two words," Stay Here", after they have blown the Whistle.
So why is it so prevalent know because you have guys like LeBron, Wade County, and Durant 66 not really getting hit on the play but they scream as though you have them at gun point. The one real problem I have with the Flopping now is that they have taken away the Hand Checking on the Offensive Player so it is even easier to get to the Cup so why flop because guys missed shots or dunks period.
They took hand checking away to make the game fun because if it was still in effect guys like KD 6'10" and $1.95 soaking wet would go nowhere. Looking like the Rubber Band Man and hand checking would make you look like Brad Sellers the former Ohio State Standout and Bulls 1st rounder.
Ask M -AIR- J 23 what hand checking did for the BAD BOY Pistons when they played he and the Bulls. talking about Floppin'..90% of the league would do nothing if we put hand checking back in the Logo..90%...but we talking Flopping...you Floppers.
Here is some of the more notable Floppers of the past:
John Starks Knicks
Reggie Miller Pacers
Michael Jordan Bulls
Vlade Divac Lakers/Kings
Toni Kukoc Bulls
Sarunas Marciulionis Warriors
Arvydas Sabonis Blazers
Peja Stojakovic Kings
Mark Jackson Clippers
Danny Ferry When he played.....
95% of the Logo Today and all the Stars
Having said that about Flopping you think Michael Jeffrey Jordan made Flopping an Art Form? Not to put Mike out there but he needs some good press at this present moment until Draft 2012 in June.
Why take Flopping out the replays when they do it are Entertainment especially the facial Expressions. The Officials will never know what a true foul is if you start calling Flopping.
