    So who do you think is the best 'actor' in the NBA that can manipulate refs and fake anything?

    I'd go with Sam Cassel.

    Reggie Miller is pretty good at it. Mike Bibby did a good job last night to fake getting hit by Eisley. Must've learned from Divac.

    Reggie Miller and Vlade are the best I have seen.

    I somewhat agree with you. He was great in E.T., but he's not at the line as much as some of the other players in the league. So because of that I have to think the best actor in the NBA is Pau Gasol. Gasol has had 211 shots from the free-throw line this season (12th in the league) and he never lets up on the referees. If you've ever seen a Grizzlies game you will know that Gasol spends twenty-four minutes whining and twenty-four minutes actually playing.

    [​IMG] Man, Sam Cassel is one ugly motha. Him and Anthony Mason used to be on teams, that was the nastiest possible site. But Reggie and Vlade are the best on court actors.

    This thread should be closed, because Vlade is the king hands down.

    Makes me sick though because their is flopping 2/3 times down the court it seems, it's crazy. Makes the game not fun to watch in my opinion. Should be a tech.

    You're right King James. Flopping is one of those things that just takes away from the game itself... it should be stopped or disallowed just like that new rule of hand-checking on the perimeter. Also, they should get rid of the little arc under the basket, because that contributes to a large percentage of flops.

    Vlade is the best actor, but it is the most annoying thing. It should be a foul; in hockey it's a penalty and it's the same stupid thing. Honorable mention to Sam Cassel, because he tries hard but it isn't always so convincing.

    I don't really know much about faking, so in my opinion out of the people I'd had seen I'd have to go with Vlade myself, he pretty much exaggerated alot of the time.

    Vlade is the king of exaggeration, but he does not neccesarily always get the call

    Sir charles is just mad Sam lit Kevin Johnson, up for like 35 in a playoff game as a rookie which cost him his best chance at a chip with MJ not in the League at the time. What charles doesnt know is that chicks dont get a chance to look at Sam's face they are to mesmerized looking at those 2 championship rings. Maybe he could use some.

    The Best actor in the league is Mutombo, he'll punch you in your stomach then put on that "wasnt me face".

    Vlade for sure. I wonder how he gets away with it knowing that everybody knows he loves to flop.
