Simulation? Flopping? Legal?

I'm watching Gasol and Rubio in action and once again there's a whole bunch of faking contact to get the referees call. It really annoys me how often the head and shoulders go back quickly even when any contact (if it happened) was nowhere near the head or shoulders.

Can refs penalise it for simulation or flopping or anything? It's as bad as diving in soccer and gives bb a bad name.

I have given up on it to be frank. I think it is just too hard to see everything in a sport played in such a tight area where players are moving so fast...
