    NBA rewards flopping with flagrant fouls

    Flagrant call ryan anderson just got was just crazy. a little elbow jab in his chest and he flops like a sniper just got a head shot.

    Was it worse than the one they gave Bogut for setting a legal screen?

    @ 44 I'm kind of an old guy. I grew up watching NBA in the 80s - Showtime Lakers, Celtics, Bad boy Pistons, etc. The whole concept of flagrant fouls is still hard for me to grasp. Hell, let's just do it like hockey.

    Okay, fine so we have the whole flagrant foul thing. But what I don't get is with all the modern technology do the refs not watch the film later and realize just how bad they are being punked????? And it's always the same guys. Ginolbili flopping, Harden acting as though his beard has just been shoved up his nose and the countless other pretenders.

    For shit sake - at least make all the stoppage of play worth something. Look at the damn video. In the 80s the only reason they'd stop the game was for Kurt Rambis to pick up his glasses.
