Not very many players have, tbh. That rule has barely been enforced.
The dude that flops more consistenly than 99% of other players still hasn't been fined or warned for flopping, tbh.

Manu stopped egregiously flopping years ago, imo.
Lance Stephenson was the worst offender from either team last night.

Not as bad as the one on Rondo in that Game 2, I saidddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd.
That's ing disgusting.
I've looked on both sides of the the spectrum and this is what I"m seeing. The Spurs are playing more aggressive than the Heat on offense where as the Heat are barreling in looking for contact on defenders that are backing up.
On offense, the Spurs are still being more aggressive and still warrant the calls they've received and possibly even more.
I've looked at all Wade and LeBron drives fairly and when they stay back and complain, they complain about almost nothing. There are a number of plays that I thought warranted a replay because it did seem like they (Wade/James) did get mugged.
The Officials have allowed physical play unless it gets out of control. The Spurs cope with their no calls whereas I've seen James and Wade stare or tantrum. Most of all, there are a number of moving screens set by the Heat. The Spurs are clean on those type of plays but not 100 percent clean. The moving screens go uncalled on most of Miami's part. Especially the screens far away from the ball.
Overall, I think this has been the best officiating in my history of watching the NBA playoffs. Last years officiating was terrible. The year before that, it was even more terrible and so on. It has gone leaps and bounds as far as I'm concerned.
As for the Manu flopping, I haven't seen that most of the series so I don't believe what everyone is gawking about. Other players have flopped much more than he has.
Any call that Miami hasnt gotten is completely neutralized by EVERY SINGLE CALL TIAGO SPLITTER HAS BEEN ROBBED OF.
Anyway is this even being discussed. This is poetic justice as far as I'm concerned because I haven't watched all the 82 games of Miami in the regular season. In those season games, they were heavily favored by the officiating crew. It wasn't even close. They were flopping all season also. Now that the league is exposing there flaw, they aren't as great of the team as they thought they were since much of their defense was a fluke. I've also seen the officials rob games for them, one against the Cavaliers, another against the Magic. That was during that.........supposed 29 game winning streak.
Tell me how should I feel sorry for players that have flopped into the position they are, a position the league wants them to be, a position in which the media wanted them to be, a position the NBA strived them to be in, a position in which fans with arrogance and ignorance, a team that most people would call made? Why should I care? Why should anyone care?
the guy with the white shirt amongs the crowd is hilarious.
