Laughable.

i dont think that was BK's point. i think he just wanted to know how here would flop if they played. fans, including myself, hate flopping. but if i was in the NBA.. i would do it. it's helping your team win, and that is your job.
i hate it.. but i dont hate it that much when lebron and wade are shooting free throws.
Then you're a pussy.
The point is that it literally does nothing. It's a waste of time. There is no advantage to be gained by not telling the ref you fouled someone; you're just not wasting anyone's time.
Ya, I guess I agree somewhat. However, the difference to me is that hooking a guy doesn't make you look like a bitch. Flopping because you can't take some contact does. Especially when you are a beast like LeBron. That's just chump shit to me.
Because they can't. Once the call is made it is made.
Replay only is allowable in certain situations on certain calls.
Because they can't. When the call is made it is made.
A different official with a better angle can overrule the first official, but that's not the first official changing the call. It's deferring to the guy who saw it better.
A player cannot overrule the ref's eyes.
Has an official ever changed a call when someone admitted to it? You can't call your own fouls.
I hope this thread is not trying to justify the all time high flopping thats goin on.
Flopping is not at an all time. If LBJ wasn't flopping, nobody would notice the flopping that is going on as it is the same as other years.
As I stated before I don't mind flopping as long as it is not the dramatic kind when you act like you just got shot.
Show me the rule where it says they can't. Refs change calls all of the time. Yes, video review is only used in certain situations. However, refs discuss calls among themselves all of the time to make sure they got the right call.
Why couldn't they discuss it and change the call if a player speaks up and says "he didn't foul me"?
My guess, which is no more than that, is that refs don't want to look like they're showing the players more respect than they're getting FROM the players.
If that's not it I've got nothing.
I'll say it again. Say the game's changed and it's somehow " acceptable all you like. It's STILL cheating and totally unnecessary. With all the bad acting jobs in recent memory i don't see how anybody can justify it...
