    - David Stern on Flopping (and indirectly on LeBron flopping).

    WOW, great post. Did Stern actually say that? I LOVE that every time ESPN covers the flopping issue, 50% of the clips are on Lebron. If they did a special about uncalled traveling violations, it would be 50% Lebron once again.

    Stern, a person I generally despise, is 100% correct on this issue. Fines need to be imposed, and if it continues, games. Make it a penalty.

    The Spurs won championships with flopping. LeBron is rewarded for flopping time and time again. It is disgusting.

    Maybe the league needs to start handing down fines for flopping.
