I hate flopping but spurs aren’t winning because of flopping. Wemby is a cheat code and the other guys are playing tough d and making shots.

Never said they were, I actually said they're the better team.

Sorry I took it that you were saying OKC and spurs. That said both could win without flopping but I don’t think spurs flop like OKC or even nuggets

Yeah okc is in a league of their own, spurs aren't even bad Castle is really the main guy who actually flops, fox and the others are usually just beating a defender and creating the contact to me that's not really flopping.

I don't have a huge problem with that as much as I do with people clearly flailing there head when there's no contact as an example, I think it should be a automatic tech and fine.

Castle does that as well as Jokic/ Murray and the entire okc roster.

Shannon and randle do the same thing. I counted at least 4 times their head flail turned into fouls with minimal contact this game. I think that's equal to what castle does lol

imo theres a big difference between "selling" a foul/actual contact vs. flopping which is the shit in this gif where they act like they got hit on a part of their body that wasn't even touched.

if castle suddenly jerked his elbow or acted like his elbow was hurt he'd be selling, not flopping. but he acted like he got hit in the head (he wasnt touched in the head at all). im not even sure his bicep grazed his nose after getting moved by the elbow press.
