Luka trying to catch up to a generational flopper in Flops/48 minutes this year but said flopper has set the benchmark so high that Luka's chasing a ghost ;)

Just watched Booker run into a defender standing their ground three times in a row and snap his neck back all 3 times.

Refs fell for it once. Just pathetic basketball.

It's the game. Everytime Booker goes through a screen, he acts like he got shot.

Booker flops just as much if not more, where is his thread ?

He’s just insufferable to watch - can’t stand him. But I get it

How do you feel about Booker looking like a bobblehead everytime a defender makes contact with him? Or when he goes around screens on defense? Is that insufferable too?

Every game is like a soccer match now. It's like watching 10 Neymars out there.

I mean yeah? This thread is about Luka so I replied accordingly and even said I get it. Flipping sucks across the board.

Yes, even more. Flopping is one thing. When a player is legtimately fouled and they flop it is annoying, but I understand it.

When a player intentionally creates the contact and flops like Booker and many others do that is annoying.

Fair

It's sad to watch great players flop because it helps them increase their odds of winning. Seeing huge players ending up on the floor due to minimal contact is embarrassing :lol: but if the refs stop falling for it (they won't), then they'll stop doing it.

The flopping really ruined the game today. Officiating is at an all time bad level right now. Not sure what can be done.

Unfortunately, he doesn't get calls when he doesn't flop. I know the haters will blatantly lie and say that he is always flopping, but that's just not true. We Mavs fans have been saying it for years that he has to fall down, because otherwise they just refuse to give him the calls, doesn't matter that he drives more than almost anyone in the NBA. Embiid is the best at this, and when it's the playoffs, you gotta do what you gotta do.

This is the hate Luka board, so I know it'll fall on deaf ears, but Luka is not a flopper, a whiner and a cry baby yes, but not a flopper, he did flop hos ass off tonight because refs were missing calls on Suns all series, and he decided to take action, and I loved every second of it.

I would bet money that Crowder and Paul have more flops combined than Luka.

Every flopper is insufferable and you should get a T if you flop - that solves flopping
