word-- in game its too subjective to b consistent-- at least now every game will now b reviewed-- league fines (big ones) -- increase wit each offense-- leads to eventual suspension-- rinse and repeat-- i think thats the best option.

Kobe's salary: $27,849,149 % fine for physical or verbal flopping (let's say $25K)

=

1114 HEYYYYYYYY's to burn over 82 games. Divide that and you get

Kobe flopping 13.5 times a game.

If it is simply fines then it's not going to do anything, they need to start suspending players for games - it is the only way that it will stop the problem.

word these fines gotta b hefty.. and hopefully they follow a similar standard like techs.. maybe 5-10 flop fines equals one game suspension?

Flop should be $250K. That will kill all that noise real quick. I say 2 flops, kicked out of game. 3 flops, 1 game suspension, after that, get suspended 1 game for each subsequent flop. Game will get cleaned up overnight.

i dont think there needs to be a penalty or a fine, simply just stop calling it. if a guy wants to flop down and leave his teammates playing 4 on 5 then let him.

if it looks like a flop, dont blow ur whistle.

the flopper looks like a dumbass and the game keeps playing on with him on the floor.

how hard his this??


:comeon:

Smh "don't blow ur whistle". Why the hell do you think he blows the whistle in the first place? He obviously thinks the player has been fouled. This rule is for when the flopper fools the referee, they can fine the player after watchin it on video later on.

Those last two flops are :wow:
if the fines are hefty enough players will stop.
You can't give a person a "hefty" fine over a damn flop :comeon:

Spoken like someone who has never reffed a game.
Spoken like a lazy incompetent ref who sucks at being a ref.

This is beyond stupid actually, and its funny watching so called fans support this. Who will be in charge of these reviews and who will determine the standard of what is and what isn't a flop? Players often "flop" when they are legitimately being fouled, how will that be handled? What about all the verbal flopping? What, are they going to fine every player that yells in an attempt to draw a call as he drives the lane? If not then it won't be fair or consistent.

The answer isn't to fine/punish players, the answer is to tighten up on the refs and hold them more accountable. Obviously being a ref isn't "easy", but that is no excuse. Differentiating flops from legit fouls is the refs job. Refs are lazy and players just take advantage. Blame the refs not the players.
