There are rumblings that the NBA might institute a "no flopping'' rule next season that would give officials the option of calling a technical foul on players who get creative in attempting to get a charging call.

That's gonna be fantastic.

Try not calling charges on flops first. I guess that makes too much sense for the rulemakers.

I've actually seen that recently. I'd prefer that to making another rule that is subjective and could really have an adverse affect on a game... But, like you said, that probably makes too much sense.

Soccer refs can pull a yellow card for diving, but you never see it.

Great idea, I don't think there will be many T's handed out, players may stop flopping so they don't get the tech unless they think they really are great actors lol.
