I love how the NBA started the fines this year yet not one Heat player has been fined for it.

quote:

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


I thought he was an annoying little gnat and hated his dirty game. Great player but him and Malone were dirty as hell.

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


I remember him driving to the basket A LOT more so yeah, he was going to get contact. and I'm sure there were instances where he sold more contact to get a call, but pretty much every player does that.

it just seems that Wade has gone full-blown flopper recently where he will fall at any contact. a la him falling out of bounds last game.

The recent phenomenon regarding Wade and Lebron is called butthurt.


yeah, that's always going to be a part of it, but Wade isn't helping to disprove any of those opinions.

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.

The only one he sold was the Haywood gif. Flopping was a detriment in the Indiana gif because he gave up position for it and let him score. Absolutely idiotic.

WOW.................... You JUST proved to me that you aren't really good anymore and are taking the sad way out......... If you played in the 80's or 90's you would have gotten killed.... The more and more I look at what you are doing now... The more and more your title in 2006 was as tainted as ever......

So YOU are a fan of FLOPPING??????

What a You are.......... Its ruining the game[among other things]... Doesn't matter.. David stern will OVERLOOK ALL the flopping the heat do the next two games to make sure the Heat make the Finals so Bron and Wade get extra rest to take on the Spurs........... Watch and see....... And extra [ELBOWS ] that get thrown by Wade will be overlooked as well.........
