    That wasn't even the worst one. I think the flop where he literally ran into Wes on a fast break and bounced off him like he was shot was much worse.

    Agreed - when I first saw the headline i figured it'd be that one.

    He might be a bigger flopper than CP3 or Harden. I haven't decided yet.

    So can you get a warning and fine in the same game? :)

    Probably not, but that fucker should get a suspension for all the flopping he did in that game.

    No kidding. At least on that one he could argue he just lost his balance and fell down. It's not like he tried to sell it to the ref (he just got up and ran up the court).

    This flopping enforcement system is a joke it's so poorly policed. When a team successfully executes a half-dozen flops in a single game, and one player has three, but gets a warning on one of the less agregous and unsuccessful ones, you know it's mostly lip service.

    I'm not even sure I would call that a flop. KM was trying to draw contact by kicking his feet out. When he didn't get any he landed off balance and just kind of went down. If anything the kick out was the offense, not the falling back--which was legit considering the angle he landed.

    Yes, LeBroning is much worse.
