I don't, it's part of the game. Judging if somebody "flopped" or not is too subjective and something I could see creating problems.Fly4Fun;1152577 wrote:Harden has flopped in the past, but that Artest elbow was a solid connect with no flopping at all.
I do agree that the NBA has to punish players for flopping though.

His refusal to accept reality and trying to pass it off as "celebration" shows that the guy just doesn't get it. He needs to have been out at least double digits. Then again, because he is a Laker I was afraid the league would only do 3-5 games.

He missed 1 game, was cleared to play tonight, but the team held him out. So he will miss a total of 2 games.
Which tells me one big thing. The elbow didn't make as bad as contact as it seemed. Which I thought at the time when it happened. He was hit directly in the side of the head, it was more of the neck region.
