Wtf?
this flopping fine thing is the worst idea ever.
Incredible. Poor guy was just trying to get a foul actually called by the refs against the Thunder. If I could afford it, I'd pay it for him.

Then why don't you take up a collection. Tell Spurstalk to empty their pockets.
So is flopping unless it's a Spur doing it.
When your bigs are flopping instead of defending, you're in trouble already. Spurs stopped defending after that horrid 3rd quarter FT display. Might as well just not even dress out for the next game if you're not going to defend.
Tiago tried to buy a foul and the would not sell it to him.....
Sorry guys--didn't see this posted previously. My bad.
It's tough to defend when you're lying on your back.
i'm fine with the flopping fines. if he's going to be a got and fall down instead of focusing defensively (could have deflected the entry pass, etc), then he deserves to be fined. my issue with this is how inconsistent they are, letting 95% of blatant flops go unpunished
I'm not sure what the big deal with flopping is. If a player wants to do it, let him do it. Big deal.
Meh, it was expected. But how about some of the bull Westbrook and Durant pull to get calls? No fine there?
The big deal is it takes the offensive player out of the play. Have you ever seen a defender properly defend while lying on his back?
Okay, I can understand implementing this rule but how is it the guys that flop ALL the ing time don't get fined because they are protected? Durant did two of the worst fouls in this playoffs and nothing. I'm done, this is my last year watching the NBA because this unfair bull is just ridiculous to me.
I would like to see the play.
I feel bad for Tiago too. But the guy's making $8M per year. $5,000 is spare change for him.
All rigged, like Hyman Roth said in Gothfather II, or our ol´sports said in Catch Me If You Can.
I'd like to rewatch the play because when I initially saw it, I thought it was a blatant flop. Guess I was correct.
I'd actually like to see stiffer penalties for flopping because if they suspended people, LBJ would be suspended at least once a series.
Suprised they didn't suspended him. Anything to help the Thunder seems to be the way of the NBA.
Flopping fines are okay with me....HOWEVER I would like to see some FINES on Refs that miss players stepping out of bounds with the ball, bull calls AFTER the 3 point basket is made and other appalling blatant unfairness!!! BOOM!
The official was standing right on that sideline when it happened. He was looking right at it.Flopping fines are okay with me....HOWEVER I would like to see some FINES on Refs that miss players stepping out of bounds with the ball, bull calls AFTER the 3 point basket is made and other appalling blatant unfairness!!!

Actually I reviewed Game 3 carefully after cooling down and we were simply outplayed. There is no other way to debate it when you are out rebounded by 20. Aside from a few of the typical Westbrook careening into the paint but has nothing fouls (with missing replay of course), I saw nothing amiss about game 3 whatsoever beyond the Mills theft and Adams piggy back ride on Duncan.
Now about that video of this flop anyone have it?
Tiago wipes his ass with $5,000 tbh
And that Westbrook "steal" made the top 5 play.
Anyone have a video of the incident
And, we all thought that Tiago wouldn't do anything to make a name for himself in this series.
