I watched the rest to see if he ever found a flop and out of Lebron's top 10 flops he managed to find 2 examples of actual flopping. #1 was not one of those, it was Lebron falling down after getting clotheslined by Draymond in transition. It was probably an intentional foul to stop the break!
He doesn’t even really embellish all that much on the actual fouls. What a trash video.
Bron haters furious and it’s not even July yet. Gonna be the best NBA season in a long time.
Guy posts a video of “flopping” and the literal first play on the preview when you scroll across it is him getting shoulder checked at full speed. LOL. Amazing stuff.
Edit: just saw the next post

Lol you fully admit you didn’t even watch the video. Here’s the thing - yes, LeBron does flop on occasion but nowhere near as much as most superstars. If you combed through MJ’s entire career you’d be able to come up with something worse probably. Some insane guy couldn’t even find 10 flops for his video and had to post obvious fouls that weren’t flops at all.

Manu should come out of retirement and Poppyvich should direct for the Oscar.
I watched it now and will cosign these as examples of Kang flopping:
10 - Kang's momentum takes him out of bounds (oob) there, but why he is flailing an extra 10 ft into the press area?
9 -Again momentum taking him oob, gets a phantom shove and theatrically dives into the press area again
8 - Nasty Nate's hand never even touches the Kang's face, but Kang's head jerks back like he took a straight right. And then he ends up flailing 20 ft oob again...
7 - Did he even get touched? Kang picks up the dribble and runs oob...
6 - Barely gets touched by JR SMith, diving into the press area again...
5 - just wow
4 - come on man
3 - still thinking these aren't flops? Who touched him there, because it wasn't a person?
2 - Manu would be proud of this flop
1 - That was a "flop". Kang is pushing the ball up full speed and Draymond clips him with barely any momentum. Kang goes flying... Cue the kitkat song... definite flop even if it was a foul.

Lol. This is legit trollish posting. He barrels into him. It wasn’t a flop at all and if you aren’t trolling I seriously am concerned for your mental welfare.
Unpopular opinion - Flopping is awesome and good for the game. I think it's entertaining to watch after the fact, and admire guys like Smart who take it to an artistic level.

Bron did the barreling... You think Kang pushing full speed is going to fly backwards like that? He literally lowered his shoulder into Draymond.

....Draymond sees the play developing, speeds up, and quite literally shoulder checks LeBron.
Draymond is the guy on the Warriors in the clip, btw. Twilight Zone level stuff going on here. BTC’a unbridled hatred for LeBron is causing his brain to melt and become unable to process a simple video.
I don't hate the Kang, I'm being objective. Is that a top ten flop? Nope. But Draymond didn't blindside him like an old stockton pick either. He had a few steps to build up the force it took to literally stop full-speed Freight Train Kang in his steps and cause him to fly backwards. Kangvision sees everything and everyone on the court, and he literally lowers his shoulder into Draymond.

I get this, that's part of his game. But the top tier guys should be above that when they get all the calls anyway.

Watching it again I'm even more convinced it was intentional and not just a steal attempt gone awry.
Draymond saw Thompson ahead of the ball towards the bottom of the screen and realized that it was a 4 on 3 that was gonna develop into a 2 on 1 at the rim and made a heads up decision to foul, and foul hard enough to guarantee the play stops

It was definitely intentional, not even debatable. However, that doesn't negate the fact that Kang flopped. He was moving full speed and Draymond had a few steps to make up ground. Watch Bron's eyes, he knows what's coming and lowers his shoulder like an RB hitting the hole. If that same sequence happens about 20ft closer to the rim, Kang gets a shot up 100% of the time. But because he's at half court he flops instead of shrugging off the contact for a shot attempt.

In basketball, a flop is an intentional fall by a player after little or no physical contact by an opposing player in order to draw a personal foul call by an official against the opponent.[1] The move is sometimes called acting, as in "acting as if he was fouled". Because it is inherently designed to deceive the official, flopping is generally considered to be unsportsmanlike.
Selling an otherwise hard foul with a slightly exaggerated fall isn't typically called a flop and that it made Lebron's "worst flops" video actually is a huge point in his favor.
Fine enough, and agreed these are all not top 10 worthy. Also to reiterate I'm not a Kang hater, but the guy is a flopper. Selling fouls and flopping are in the same neighborhood, come on man. What about the several examples there that meet the criteria you're using to define flopping? Entries 9,8,7,6,5,4,2 are up there with his crab dribble and add in how he undresses the ref after many missed shots...

Drawing offensive fouls should be a bigger part of the game. More stars should foul out committing a charge against some scrub.

Last season, you might know it as the season LoLebron didn't make the playoffs, in a league where more than half the teams make the playoffs, was already the best season.
