The Flop
« on: December 29, 2007, 11:44:37 PM »
Do we over flop? We do get a fair amount of charges called in our favor but sometimes I feel we are constantly flopping. I'm not sure how I feel about it. Thoughts?

overdoing the flop is seriously detrimental to the team.  It puts your entire team out of defensive position and leads to easy hoops.  Risk is not worth the reward.  Make sure there is significant contact before you fall.  The refs have been around the block...sometimes they can be fooled...but they know what you're tryin to do out there.

yea evans does too many half ass fouls. If you are going to hack him well hack him and make sure he doesn't make it. Just don't tap him or take an obviously late charge and let him score and 1.

it works for Duke!!!   haha...seriously though  I can't stand flopping...they need to start calling fouls on floppers...or at least start breaking up the acting classes players are going to.

I love someone that will take a charge standing underneath the basket but I'm not asking about charges I'm talking about the flop. When an opposing player is dribbling the ball or on an inbounds play and our guy just goes to the floor. If you get the call great but sometimes we get burnt because our guy is on the floor while his man continues on.
