Funny that....during an interview after one of the Bulls playoff games he stated that he didnt need to flop.

If anyone should be getting fined it should be Wade....he flops more than a fish out of water!

Exactly. Ineffective until the officials have in-game power.

Wade should be fined for every game he has ever played. Maybe the worst flopper out.

When all is said and done, the list of the best floppers in the NBA doesn't read too differently to the list of the best players.

Well, I guess that amount of money shows exactly how seriously the NBA are taking this, doesn't it?

Battier is the worst in the league.

But he disguises it so well, and his timing on the flop and the way he goes down makes it hard for the league to say with certainty that he flopped.(even though everyone knows that's exactly what he did)

Pretty sad that the best part of his game is the ability to sell a call. He isn't doing anything on either end of the floor.

I have lost a lot of respect for Wade. Not just the flopping, but the dirty plays, the trash talk(direspecting Dirk in the 2011 finals..fake cough) and just his ego.

@MACDUB, I agree with your ideas on players who flop and trash talk, I am not a fan of that kind of behaviour either; however the NBA is full of big egomaniacs with acting skills far above their ability to tough it out on the court and trash talking is so common place that I can't see anything being done...

I just hope that our players such as BAYNES, BOGUT, MILLS and future Aussies are not going to follow suit and remain somewhat good sports, especially as this next crop of potential Aussie NBA players coming through will be role models for the next generation!

Generation N(BA)....

He should be called for a tech foul for each flop he does.
