NBA Fines Floppers Starting Next Season

Hallelujah!


The NBA will finally begin to do what they should have been doing for quite some time now. Watching some of the games in the playoffs for the past couple of seasons has been a tremendously frustrating experience with famed floppers Manu Ginobili and Bruce Bowen throwing themselves onto the hardwood every other possession.

Check out this ridiculousness:



I highlight Manu partly because I'm somewhat of a Suns fan, but I won't deny that even Suns' commit these heinous plays.

Here's Raja Bell auditioning to be a Hollywood stunt man:



I hope the NBA comes down hard on these guys. It's time to cut the feces. I'm tired of looking back at close games and wondering what the outcome would've been if a flop that was called hadn't been called.

Other notable floppers:

Robert Horry
Richard Hamilton
Andres Nocioni
Andrei Kirilenko
Anderson Varejao
Pau Gasol
James Posey
Tayshaun Prince

I'm sure I'm missing several more. Can anyone refresh my memory?

Before I go, here's one last video for good measure:



Wow.

Later.
