Wade's stance on flopping is well known now after that embarrassing flop last game, but when did he become such a puss? I don't remember him flopping early in his career.

Excuse me Mr. Wade, could you give an example of a hyperbole?

"The NBA is full of floppers. It used to be amazing with guys like Laimbeer, Reggie Miller, and Vlade Divac."

When John Stockton threw elbows and flopped everybody praised him for being hard nosed and savvy.

and joe theisman thinks he should be a QB after his NBA career is over.
My point? Glad you asked: Nobody gives a shite.

Probably about #3 or #4 on my list of why I don't give a shite about the NBA anymore.
#1 - Hugely overpriced tickets (unless you are willing to sit in the nosebleed sections).
#2 - White Fan Apathy (there.. I said it. I don't hate. I just don't identify or care any longer.)
#3 - Stars get obvious special treatment, aka "no calls on fouls and traveling".
#4 - Flopping
#5 - David Stern and his plantation ruler style of managing which teams win and which teams lose, both in the playoffs and in the lottery.

Didn't he say two weeks ago that he didn't flop?

Jordan never would have seen the point to flopping. GOAT

no, but this whole blatant flopping from him seems like a recent thing.
he dominated the 2006 finals and from what I remember, nobody was calling him a flopper.

key word bolded. He flopped the shite out of those finals. I think 95% of the earth looks back on 2006 and sees this as self-evident.

The recent phenomenon regarding Wade and Lebron is called butthurt.
