I don't know if anyone saw this but last night in the Nets loss, Scott Pollard came down with a rebound and turned his body into Vince Carter, Carter fell down holding his eye for several seconds and during the reply it showed that there wasn't any contact. There was a foul called on Pollard and Carter looked like a freaking fool. Also more importantly it was a horrible call on the refs part, there wasn't even close to any contact.
:no1:this is just disgraceful. Flopping is the downfall of the league.And this just makes me have even less respect for Carter.
That was insane! He didn't touch him! Carter's flopping skills will go down with the likes of Reggie Miller.
What a faker. On the replay, it clearly showed that there was no contact. But he acted like a bi*ch, by his actions it looked like he got shot in the eye. In my mind, he should get a penalty from the replay for intentionally flopping. Asswipe.

But in this case I would feel the same way even if it was Pierce(my favorite player). I laughed, it was funny.
Kobe and such wouldn't be an 'asswhip' if he did it and the refs were all for the Pacers that game anyways.
Are you kidding, people would be all over Kobe if he did this. He is the most hated player in the game. Anyone who would get someone for a foul which they did not commit, I automatically do not respect.
Wow you guys love to hate on Carter huh..I guess since your teams are lottery bound you have nothing else to talk about..How about you guys shut the F*ck up because youre only out here talking about him when hes playing bad, when he plays like the elite player that he is, you have absolutely nothing to say..Get off Carter's case and stop criticizing his every move, its getting pretty rediculous..
Did anyone by any chance catch Pollard and his acting job on Krstic when he holds his arm after the play, not letting go of it, causing Nenad to pull it away only to get a technical from the refs while Pollard acts like he has no clue what happened..Of course we dont talk about that bullsh** play that scumbag Pollard made because you have to take any oppurtunity you can to criticize Carter..
its one thing to flop when someone runs into you and makes some sort of contact, cuz at least the guy touched you. But flopping when your not even touched thats just bull. He should be fined for puttin on the biggest acting job in the nba.
How can you compare Pollard's acting job with Vince's? Did you even see Vince's acting job?Obviously Vince is going to be criticized, and he brought it upon himself with the actions he pulled in Toronto. Any player that does that will have to suffer the same criticism. He brought it upon himself.It's the same with Ron Artest... because of the brawl, every time he plays physically or makes a "physical play/hard foul," everybody is going to criticize him.
Pollard did make contact with Vince, but he obviously exageratted the play..Im not denying that at all, but if you saw Pollard's play and it was Carter who did what Pollard did, you would all be bitching about him..Its not like it was a foul or anything, the play was well over and Pollard wouldnt let go of Krstic's arm. It was honestly just a cheap play by a cheap player who apparently cant contribute for his team in any other way..

He held his eye like he was freaking injured, it's one thing to flop, it's another thing to fake an injury.
maybe he should quit the NBA and start playing Soccer. He probably won't score or pass, but he'd get his team 10 penalty shots.

Like hes the only one in the NBA who does it </div>And if any other player flopped like that, it would be mentioned. Nobody is singling out Vince Carter as being the only flopper, what people are saying is that its wrong to get a call when your not even touched. It really is quite ridiculous. I personally think its ok to OVER exaggerage when you actually make contact but there was no contact made to overexaggerate.
