Who is the biggest flopper in the NBA?

[BUMP]

That's ridiculous. AK rarely flops. I'm not going to say that he hasn't had some egregious ones, but he IS NOT a flopper by volume. I count 4 in the past 3 years. Two against HOU, one against GS, one against DAL in a game where dirk kept trying to put his elbow into AK's head. That's it, that's the list. And it's the reason you can't find an AK flop mixtape like you could for Sasha, D-Fish, Manu, Varejo, etc. Just a couple videos of isolated plays.

[BlackSwordsMan]

all of you. You're all entirely clueless about AK's game apparently if you think he flops in volume.

are you AK?

Name a flop besides 2 against HOU in the playoffs. Golden state two years ago. Or the dirk flop this year. Name it. If you guys think he's such a big flopper, off the top of your heads, you'd be able to cite more than 4 of them from the past 3 years. GMAFB, there's been times in his career where Ginobili's had that many in two games. Varejo did it in one quarter once. Four flops in three years makes you the biggest flopper in the NBA? Yeah, give me a ing break.

And actually nobody brought up GS but me.

I think its just sour grapes bro. Houston still has nightmares about that flop. LOL They will never let that one go!

Exactly.

And if people want to hate AK for what admittedly, are some fairly evil flops, it's fine by me.

But this board-wide mis-characterization of him as a volume flopper is ignorant.

LMFAO @ a Utah fan refusing to admit the NBA's biggest lanky got isn't a flopper.

The foreigners are completely ruining the NBA and they should stick to the basketball-soccer hybrid Euroleague.

Go ahead. Name a flop besides those 4 from the past 3 seasons. Obviously you know of some. Enlighten us.

Sorry, I don't keep track of flops. The fact people are able to name 4 flops off the top of their head just shows how bad it is. Anderson Varejao is a volume flopper, doesn't mean I can name any of his flops off the top of my head.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

But since he's white understandably the Utah fans are blindly defending him.

You don't like my AK take so you call me a racist. Classy. ing jerkoff.

Anybody? Nope. Didn't think so.

I call you racist cause you live in Utah. Go drink some alcohol free beer.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Hey Bump, you stole the pic a posted

[balli]

I call you racist cause you live in Utah.

And that makes you a ing jerkoff. You make bigoted assumptions about me, ostensibly to call me a bigot? Laughable.

It's against your religion to say go make a 13 year old sign one of those Utah marriage contracts.

Dude, get that soft outta here! You sound like an uneducated bag! You probably watch Big Love and actually think you know something you dumb ass.

Try to name that many distinct flops with any other player in the league.

[Cry Havoc]

You people need some education.

Fact 1: Taking a charge is not flopping. It's taking a charge. It's a valid defensive play. It has value for the player's team. Don't confuse the two.

Fact 2: When a player exaggerates the effects of contact, it doesn't mean the player wasn't fouled. Don't assume there was no foul if the player "flops".

Fact 3: This is officiated team basketball, not streetball. The officials have a clue about flopping vs. actual fouls and generally make calls accordingly. (However there are still "superstar rules".) Don't assume that flopping influences calls very much. (Except for Chris Paul... see below.)

To my way of thinking, the player who gets the most unwarranted calls due to his own exaggeration of contact is, without a doubt, Chris Paul. He is a muscled, compact, very strong guy, yet he bounces like a pinball and falls like he's been shot when he thinks he can get a call.

I think the refs know exactly what he is doing, but they also understand he is the NBA's golden boy right now, and they treat him as such, giving him every benefit they can.

Best post in the thread.

Selling contact is a completely legit play. Artificially making it look like there was contact when there has been none is a flop.
