Offensive fouls,and flopping must go

I can recall about ten years ago, when flopping, and taking charges was non existing in the NBA. The league has become a joke in so many ways. I love this game, but when I watch the game, and I see the over acting, and how the refs call the game. It makes me think about my love of the game. The rule needs to change. I think they need to think of new rules around  offensive fouls. Even the restricted area calls are bogus, unless the refs use instant replay to see the call, and make the right call. Getting rid of the restricted area could be an option.


I think flopping has changed games,and the final scores, and I think it's one less rule the league needs. It's a rule that helps the refs alter games in my opinion.

I think flopping is a symptom, not a problem, and I think the root cause is bad and manipulative refereeing. The brouhaha about the flopping is an attempt to distract people from the root problem.

I thought I was until tonight's game. But yeah feeling better. I agree that it's a symptom as well. Tonights game was poorly called, but the calls really didn't change the outcome tonight. Did you see the flagrant foul called on Fisher on James?

I would have agreed with the flagrant foul on Fisher, except I have to ask, how many times did Chalmers cut off a driving player that very same way, and the call went against the other guy?!!

Meanwhile you have commentators/stooges pretending that flopping is the real issue...
