    I would say, given our history with injuries to cornerstones of our franchise, it is never a good thing to joke about injuries.

    I'd rather beat a healthy Lebron instead of injuring him to beat him. If you did that, did you really win? Very Bush League.

    I don't care about winning. To Ariza LeBron is its own reward.

    Is it possible this could shame him enough to get him to stop?

    No. The video evidence hasn't yet. Cheating in this manner is very lucrative.

    Maybe the league will be shamed into enforcing its policy about issuing fines and suspensions for flops against one of its star players?

    There's an even worse one than these from the playoffs I think last year. I wouldn't know how to find it though. Youtube I suppose. That one where he hits the guy with his forearm then flops should have been a foul on Lebron and a tech for unsportsmanlike. But the NBA doesn't roll like that, apparently.

    Damn, for a guy who says he's a Baskeball nut and plays the game with a ton of respect (not word for word, but a general gist), he sure does make a mockery of it.

    It's a really bad look when he does it against opposing point guards. Especially for a guy who is so freaking big

    I guess I don't see a problem. He's hit in nearly every one of those gifs.

    That first one against dallas where he "gets hit" and travels... he wasn't touched there. There were some where he really did get hit, but also some where he got tapped and he fell over. There's also one where he got hit in the leg and he shot his head back... so... yeah. He may have gotten hit, but it wasn't where he accentuated the hit.
