basically. dudes are HURT. lakers been out of the playoffs for weeks now and dudes STILL can't keep them out their mouths

Pretty sure Kobe fans brought it up saying Kobe doesn't do stuff like that and that they've never seen him do it. Sorry to break y'all Kobe fans hearts do y'all upset and try to resort to the feelings card.

Parker straight broke Conley off, then proceeded to break Allen off 

 

[HIM]

Knicks and Lakers fans are the only insecure people in this thread. The only real reason you guys are up in arms (or pretending to be) about flopping is because it's the last thing you have to discredit LeBron and the heat. I don't understand how you can complain day after day in this thread. It's the same thing over and over again. We get it. You guys really hate dlopping and it takes away from the game lol) now keep the rest of the complaints to yourselves and watch the game.


Crying and complaining takes away from this thread.

its okay bruh. you're hurt.

Lol every time Kobe fans get proved wrong they either pull out the lebron Stan's got there feelings hurt or there insecure just accept the facts Kobe ain't god and he does the same stuff every other superstar does in the league

LOL 2 of the 3 plays you listed aren't even flops. The first play James Harden clearly pushes Kobe off with is elbow as Kobe is chasing him. His momentum ads in sending him flying toward the floor. The second play is a clear flop. I won't even dispute it. The third is embellishing actual contact. That's not a flop.

Guys leave Kobe alone. Dude hasn't ever flopped in his life. It's just an other notch in his belt that he has over Lebron. Kobe is an old school cat and doesn't need to do any of that garbage and is also one of the cleanest players ever.

So cut the crap, and keep on bashing Lebron but leave Kobe out of this please.

He pushed him and made him fly all the way across the floor? Come on that's a flop he's trying to sell the contact made from harden pushing off so he flung himself across the floor. Embellishing contact is a flop he's throwing his floping arms and hands in the air to make the ref call a foul that's a flop.

You forgot lebron fans on list of insecure people in this thread. You said the only reason people are up in arms about flopping is because they have to discredit lebron? So if lebron didnt flop, everyone would be cool with the other floppers in the NBA? ****, there is no place for flopping from ANY PLAYER in the NBA.

its hurt because people pointing out that EVERY STAR HAS/DOES FLOP? Even Jordan flopped

 

[SneakerProSr.]

I love Bill Simmons but that's some of the most stupid **** I've read from a writer I like.

Just stupid

 

[durantula]

Word, that wasnt a kobe flop, that was an ice cold crossover from Harden

He might have tripped over his foot.

I find it funny that Bron got fined haha. But to say Kobe has never flopped is a little far fetched. IMO anyways.

Dont attack me!

It's just funny how biased some of these dudes are.

 

[licensed to ball]

This fine isnt fair. I'm gonna make sure that everybody on Niketalk.com knows that Kobe flops just as much as LeBron...even if it's the last thing I do!!!

 

[imlive365]

This is how the thread goes. Kobe fans attack lebron. Lebron fans stick up for lebron with evidence that Kobe does the samething Lebron does and that Kobe fans criticize him for. They have no answer so they say the lebron fans got there feelings hurt, or the lebron Stan's are insecure.

 

[imlive365]

Yea your really upset I see. Maybe the lakers can make it past the second round next year. Cause they haven't the last 3 years.

LeBron should hook you up with some MVP's for your doing your due diligence on his behalf

Let's change gears for a second...

Bill Simmons’ odd comment on MLK’s assassination and Memphis sports

Martin Luther King’s assassination has a direct impact on Memphis sports according to the ESPN columnist.

Article in Link

Simmons is getting too big for hisself. He was great as the quirky internet writer that had some good ideas, was funny, etc, but now that his stage is elevated, he's losing his head.

How you even THINK to bring up MLK during a basketball series, 45 years after the fact, makes no God damn sense. Jesus, Memphis has had MULTIPLE playoff series before this last one, why hadn't it come up in those series'?

Be better than that Bill.

Right on!

Glad that makes you feel better about the fine.
