Re: Flop Warnings
Amen. The officials have proven to be incapable of distinguishing between a flop and a charge. How many times have we seen a flop been called only to watch the replay and realize the offensive player totally trucked the defender. Definitely lacks consistency and seems like the officials are calling flop warnings just for the sake of calling them and making a point.
Re: Flop Warnings
The offensive foul on Bean (i think) was pretty terrible. The SDSU guy wasn't even close to having set feet. Major inconsistencies with flops and charges and blocking across the board.

Re: Flop Warnings
In the ruling on the flop, can they call a flop on an offensive player? or can they call the kicking the leg out, like the NBA changed, i think that is how we got the call in the corner on the sdsu player, he kicked out each time.

Re: Flop Warnings
Yes they can. We have actually had that called against us as well this season on a 3 point shot and falling down in the same fashion as the SDSU player did last night.

Re: Flop Warnings
There was way too much flopping last night by both sides. Ashworth RJ, Bairstow on our side, many times leaving the Aztecs with open shots. It reminded me of an NBA game. The flop warnings are inconsistent, but something has to be done with the flopping.

Re: Flop Warnings
I don't know why the ref has to call anything on a flop? If a defender wants to fall down on the ground and leave his man unguarded, that is on him. Unless he throws himself down in the middle of the key where someone could trip on him and get hurt, all the flop does is just leave the defense a man short. The refs shouldn't let an actor bait him into making a call.

Re: Flop Warnings
I completely agree with this take. Is it not punishment enough to slide across the floor while the other team gets an easy bucket at your expense??? Let em play, just make it a no call.Yossarian wrote: ↑January 27th, 2022, 11:38 amI don't know why the ref has to call anything on a flop?

Re: Flop Warnings
Flopping should be a foul, but I find selective enforcement has made things worse.

Re: Flop Warnings
Make it a follow up call. Let the play finish and then at the next dead ball give the flopping player a foul. Why not make it a time out review as well. Keeps the game going and punishes offenders.

That's normally how it's called. After the play ends.pilotaggie wrote: ↑January 27th, 2022, 8:17 pmMake it a follow up call. Let the play finish and then at the next dead ball give the flopping player a foul. Why not make it a time out review as well. Keeps the game going and punishes offenders.

Re: Flop Warnings
They usually let the offensive player continue to a shot attempt and call it on the change of possession. That's what they tried to do in the first half last night before the senior ref overruled the call.
