But damn it, I got to call it like I see it.
It's facts over feelings.
Yeah.
Well, you got to get back to enforcing the rule of finding guys for flopping.
Because let's be real.
Let's call it how it is.
Marcus Smart, LeBron James, SGA, Luke Dort at some moments, even Chet last night.
All of those guys that had moments of flopping.
And so to me...
When you talk about how do you fix it, the only way to fix it is for the NBA to do more work, meaning that, hey, man, we got to get back to finding guys and put something in place for flopping.
We used to have that.
They kind of went away from that a lot over the last three, four years.
But when you get back to that moment of you're going to find guys for flopping, then you clean up the game.
I'm an old school type guy.
I want to see physicality.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
I want to see guys get it in the mud, get it in the trenches, earn, not give it.
Right?
And so, again, again, the only way to clean it up is that the league is going to have to do more work, meaning that they're going to have to take a deeper dive into this, put the fines back in place for flopping, and I think it will work.
