Look, I am sick as of flopping as the next guy. And I always try to be objective when it comes to Rockets Basketball, (except where Carl Landry is concerned!!!) I am glad that the league is doing what it can to stamp out flopping. Howevever I honestly believe that this is one that the league got wrong.
(For some reason, I am not getting the damn thing to imbed!!!!! Had about 6 go's at it!)
Two hands in the chest, shoving him off. IMO that one is a bit dubious.
What do you all think? Look it up on Youtube you lazy buggers!

Re: Asik receives 2nd flopping Violation.
Did cp3 ever get a warning for that horrific flop on cousins?
Did griffin ever get one for that flop on nene?
If not league is seriously more of a joke than I thought it was

Re: Asik receives 2nd flopping Violation.
the flopping rule is bullsht. the stars wont get anything more than a warning. i guess they were trying to fool the average fan that they're cracking down on flopping, but i doubt even they believe that horsesht

Here's the video link:

I can't disagree with the flop violation. Even though it was a foul by Duncan, Asik did the head snap and arm flail even though Duncan didn't touch his head.
That said, Chris Paul deserved a double or triple violation for his flop against Cousins, because he actually initiated the contact! Hard to believe he only got 1 violation this year so far.

It's fkn bs that they initiate this punishment and then do absolutely nothing to the worst floppers in the league.

Re: Asik receives 2nd flopping Violation.
they issued a warning to Ricky Rubio finally. he's the new john Stockton of flopping.
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming
