    there are different levels to flopping and what people define as flopping

    there's exaggerating contact and the hit - Lebron did this a lot
    foul baiters - I don't consider this flopping but some guys are just good at getting contact and drawing fouls - AR is great at this particularly with the pull up off the dribble
    complainers - whine about every call - well hello luka

    these are basically purgatory IMO

    then you go down a couple of levels and you get players who just act like they get fouled with no foul
    feel like every player does this at some point

    now you get to the seventh level of hell
    Harden back in his day - grabbing defenders arm
    SGA - the forearm shiver and kicking his leg
    (these are offensive fouls in my book and worse just not basketball plays)

    That wasn't you, you got hacked?

    Touche on that Luka video. There were definitely some flops to the floor. And he was pretty FAT there too. I never watched him on Dallas and didn't remember any to the floor on Lakers that were fake like those. Could be wrong. I searched on AR and if he hit the floor to me it did not look that that, and was hardly at all in any video of him "drawing" fouls. Absolutely nowhere to the level SGA does all of it worse and more often, especially going to the floor as ridiculously frequently as he does.

    So I'll move the goal post, as you often do and say find me the compilation tape on AR, your constant whipping boy that shows him going to the floor the ridiculous number of times and manner that SGA does. Or we can drop it. You're constantly claiming they're in the same league with SGA's "baiting" and it's not true. He's flopping around on the floor with the videos to prove it.
