Nah, to generalize "all players have flopped before" is exactly the weak excuse I was expecting. Does Duncan flop? Does Kobe flop? Rarely if ever have I booked either of these old school guys as floppers.
A lot of players flop, a lot sell contact/exaggerate contact like Harden, but if anyone should know, it's Dwyane Wade who has not only tried selling contact, but has blatantly flopped to get a call, which in my book is even worse than someone as annoying as Harden.
I see your Spurs... and will raise the Heat...
Manu flops, no doubt.
But Wade is one of the worse when it comes to 'hollywood moments'. I'm not referring to 'sellling' contact... you remember Manu trying to swipe the ball away from Wade in game 2 last year only for him to 'grab' his eye like he got scratched when in reality Manu didnt even graze him?
Those are the types of plays I'm referring to. If Wade is driving and gets a love tap but sells the call, it wouldnt be as big a deal imo.
