    His flopping is beyond annoying. He does it blatantly and the refs buy it every time.

    He's Stern's new boytoy.

    Why not? If you got a call every time someone barely touched you, you'd do it too. Free points AND you get your opposition out of the game? Sounds like a win/win to me.

    LA could learn a thing or two about rebounding from watching Reggie Evans.

    BTW, I still hate Dick Stockton. Shitty voice. No emotion, doesn't know the game or the players. Why does TNT bring him back every year?

    Because they figured he'd have died by now. I remember when he was paired with Hubie Brown and I thought they looked like they were both on the edge of death. That was TEN YEARS AGO.

    I wonder how much better LAC would have been if Billups hadn't gotten hurt?

    The Grizz just don't have a superstar player to give the ball to. They have some really good players, but no stars.

    I used to really like Chris Paul, but he has gotten progressively more annoying over the years. The guy whines like a young Kobe Bryant.

    Is there an elite player who doesn't whine? I remember fans on this board getting mad at Roy for first not whining enough, and then saying he was whining too much for yelling every time he drove the lane.


    What is the proper Whining ratio?

    Derrick Rose whines the right amount.

    I loved his "i'm the only superstar who gets hit this much without getting so many calls" rant. Was quiet funny to me.

    Hollins needs to get himself a huge fine. The amount of blatant flopping the Clippers are doing thats getting calls is insane. This is the playoffs and its like watching Lebron in game 1 vs NYK. The clippers aren't fun to watch with all there flailing about to get calls, i'm really just waiting for one of them to get decked by ZBO or Gasol.

    And yet it was Blake who fouled out last night. I think it evens out.

    fouled out after 31m and some insane flopping. grizz flop too but evans/paul/blake flop like its going out of style. makes the games hard to watch. we need some rule to take away flops, maybe assign techs after games for blatant flops or a flagrant 2 for flops. something extreme that will make it go the hell away.

    The Clipps brought flopping to a whole new level. I have to change the ch. when that shit starts.

    I can honestly say I dislike the Clippers more than the Lakers, Knicks and Heat. Un.Fucking.Bearable.

    So here is my issue. Assuming both make it to the next round, do I root for L*kers or Floppers? Or do I simply hope for the Staples Center to collapse during the game?

    Never mind, I answered it myself
