Playing D now in the nba is all about setting a player up for a charge

Also, it's funny how nearly all the folks complaining on this thread use their arguments against Heat players.
This thread probably wouldn't have been made if the Thunder were leading in that series

yep, we're all complaining because the heat are flopping.

i mean, its not as if this hasn't been discussed before, right?

everything doesn't revolve around them. get off their nuts.

Fam, he tried to flop against a ref..........

I dont even really have a problem the flopping charges though. That's a small part of game that will never really affect much.

But....

Charges used to be something the bench guys would take for the team when an out of control opponent would barrel towards teh basket. The bench guy would step in and sacrifice his body. You rarely ever saw stars take multiple charges like today. Rodman would do it, but he's different.

Charges today are so SOFT. A offensive player can have little momentum and get called for a charge today.

When a foul is called the game is stopped anyway. So during the time it takes to setup for a FT or inbounds the ball, a sideline ref could have did a quick review. Be honest, it takes u all of 3 seconds to tell the difference between a flop and a actual foul when u see it in the replays. It's not like a NFL review where the shyt takes 10 minutes. If done right u would barely notice it happening. If the player is caught flopping then the call is overturned.

True. It could fit in well with the flow of the game
