That is a class A flop. I won't be a hypocrite and condem LeBron for doing it, but man that makes him look bad.

Don't forget to then stare at the ref while on the ground with your hands up

It’s a huge piece of the Laker’s offense

It's killing the sport. Between the flopping, foul baiting, and little tricks players use to game the refs, the league has gone downhill. As a lifelong NBA fan it's sad, but I've found myself unable to watch as the whole league has become like Harden, Embiid and Trae.

"Grifting" has become a thing and Lakers have perfected it the last 2 years.

Vicious cycle where refs don't call anything if you don't fall down, and call it too often when players do so they learn to flop. Absolutely infuriating and punishes players with integrity too.

The amount of foul merchants in the league is insane. And it’s the Superstars!!!

It’s why the NBA is unwatchable

Why isn’t flopping a technical?

Acting like your were electrocuted is a fun one too

There has to be more challenges and more penalties for flops. That is the only way this stops. A flop should be a technical foul.

They are trying to turn this shit into soccer its dumb as fuck.

It has become the premiere league mixed with European basketball, with LeFlop crying mixed in.

I also hate the, “throw your head backwards” move anytime there is the slightest bit of contact when you have the ball…
