For as much money as the NBA now makes, why isn't there an official for every game watching remotely for flops and giving out flagrant 1s for this? They can adjust the score minutes later if a 3 was actually a 2 but they can't give out a penalty for a flop? I wouldn't mind them stopping the game to check the video for the flop since after a few stoppages for the same people would start spotlighting them for flopping I would think the embarrassment would make a lot of the flopping go away.

Will the NBA just pretend this didn't happen since if he's fined it will get people to look at why he got fined?

Eye don't believe so, at least not at the top of the foodchain. But the evolution has occurred and offenses and defenses will never be the same

The issue in the past it was that the owner (Glen Taylor) backed both Wiggins and Towns over Butler, he pushed his thoughts onto the FO and coaching staff (he did interviews and would talk about what would or wouldn't be happening under him), if you hadn't noticed he's the only common denominator for their nearly 1 1/2 decades of missing the playoffs. To fix this situation he used a consultant to pick his coach which was Thibodeau who pushed for Butler and got Minnesota into the playoffs for the first time in 14 years. Luckily, they did luck into the #1 pick of Edwards and are going through a transfer to new ownership and with that, the franchise is being much more successful. I'm telling you... ownership means almost everything unless you get a superstar who can overcome the incompetent ownership.

That said, here's Towns saying screw the win, I want my points! It takes more than just talent because Towns has INCREDIBLE talent, just the wrong type of mindset.

Truly a spectacular player. Hope Gogi is in his ear and he ends up in SoBe at some point in his career.

Luke would be a true blue whale. Even Jimmy himself was only megalodon. Dragic was an orca at best.

Would be our biggest catch since Bron'.
