Now I'm not debating whether this was a flop but wtf is up with the NBA for mainly enforcing this against role players. How many times do you see Embiid/AD on the ground and we hear nothing about them? Such a corrupt league man.

lol f'k the NBA. They hate the Raptors.

That's what happens when u go on a public rant against the league and u have no star power (no leverage)

Embiid actually flops like this 10x a game and he's often wreckless when falling to the ground. He ended Danny Green's career while flopping and its only a matter of time before he does it to someone else.

Its a major problem. Young stars like Barnes come into the league and get no respect/calls until they learn the art of flopping.

I don't see any video when I hit the link.

I wonder if AD got a flop fine, for his getting shot act after the moving screen by RJ Barrett in LA.

According L2M report, it wasn't a flop apparently.

Thanks for that!

Luka/Jokic/PG13 are on there. Embiid and AD haven't flopped all year? LoL

Not that $2000 is a lot to these guys, but I wonder if this is something that the players union will look at the next time there's a round of negotiations. It seems like it's just a completely subjective and random way for the league to take money from some players and not others.

this is a message by the nba to not complain. why didn't the refs call the tech at the time of the play. what a bunch of BS

Selective enforcement I see.. we see what the league did here but I’ll spare the conspiracy theory talk.

Hard to take the NBA seriously in cases like this when 2 weeks ago Aldama fouls Siakam and then whips his head back WWE style while Siakam is 10 inches away from making any contact with his face.

Play goes to review... offensive foul on Siakam.

Mind boggling how league officiating could be so bad.

LeBron would be broke...

As others have said, this is the league sending a message to the Raps, about “don’t air our dirty laundry to the public”. Everyone playing or working within the league knows it is fixed because it is about the entertainment of the product. You just can’t call it out publicly.

Yup

Meh, it was a total flop by RJ.

Remember Smart against in Memphis?

I love the guy that made this video. His monotone approach and constant swearing is hilarious.

I wonder what the laws are governing professional sports. People spend money on tickets and a considerable amount is spent on gambling....cant their be a class action lawsuit against the NBA for this nonsense? I mean if you used that game as exhibit A, I dont see how you couldnt win a court case.

Seems right. But there's been hundreds of flops against us I would have liked to see called.

Those two superstars, PG and Brunson stars, the rest are role players. The league really is a joke
