    This shit pisses me off just watching it. The Clippers are flopping every chance they get and over exaggerating everything.

    Flopping is so Un-American. If you're not bleeding and don't have any broken bones, quit being a pussy. Get up and play on.

    Another thing. I graduated from Oklahoma and am a huge Sooner fan. With that said, I'm getting sick of Blake Griffin's shit. I'm so sick of watching him flop. He is soft.

    He Blake, if you want to make highlight dunks on people, quit being such a bitch when your try to throw down and someone knocks you on your ass. It's part of the game.

                  Officials. They allow it, that is where is starts and stops. Players are taking advantage.

                                I remember a few years ago the NBA instituted the flop rule. It seems to me that it caused more flopping as it's never ever called.

                                I've always said that the league office should control flops and give out fines and suspensions after every game. A lot of players seem to take acting classes and the shit needs to stop.

                                  I'm not going to be homer, he does flop.

                                  With that said, he is no where near as bad as a lot of the guys in the league.

                                    He's easily one of the worst right now. If you exclude the "veterans" (Ginobli's and such) he's easily top 5.

                                    With that said, still one of my favorite players right now. This thread really asks for an "Americans..." type of comment though. I watch the nba since 2000/2001 and there's always been as much flop as there is now.

                                      There has always been flopping but it seems like it's getting worse.

                                      When I see big guy like Blake Griffin flopping around it pisses me off. I used to be a huge Griffin fan too because I graduated from OU and am a Sooner fan.

                                        I dont think he flops as much as people say. The man is huge. These can be interpreted two ways: he shouldn't make so many gestures and complain so much because it doesn't hurt him... or he is getting fouled really hard and we just don't understand because of how strong he is, meaning it seems like flopping to our normal eyes.

                                        The men as been tackled this season. More than once. I would have gone off on people already and I'm a pacific guy.

                                            FIFA introduced a yellow card for "diving" in soccer. Its still a cancer in soccer though. The bottom line is, its cheating. You are trying to con the ref, have a foul on another player. Its disgusting and needs to stop in any sport it exists. Stern needs to address this in the off season. Even if they bring in the video replay to review diving it would help. Tee up the guy and give the other team 2 free throws would solve it pretty quick. Whats the present FLOP RULE ?
