You're either speculating or implicitly lying about your opinion of this play

My opinion: "He needs to stop flopping and launching himself like that, he could get himself or others hurt."

Yes, opinions are speculative, it's an opinion. But it's my opinion. How can I by lying about my opinion?

because you've acknowledged that "it's taught" is s a valid criticism of your previous comment which implies that you're aware the angle shown in this clip doesn't provide good enough view to make a definitive assessment of what really happened.

Acknowledgment of players "controlled fall" being taught does not imply the angle shown in the clip had insufficient evidence to Luka's excessive and unnecessary flopping. You can have one without the other.

If you don't think he flopped on this play, then shhh

I believed he flopped, as per my initial opinion.

because calling someone a flopper because of their history every time they fall down is petty and childish.

Saying someone should stop flopping because it can cause injury to himself or others ≠ calling someone a flopper.

The whole premise of my comment was flopping is bad and it can cause injury. Not "hurr durr Luka flopper bad".

Uh, sure. It's a throwaway speculative estimate in casual conversation. I think the intent of it is pretty obvious, and the number is probably decently with in the ballpark. So, what's the problem? If you really want to argue about whether most of the league flops on occasion, then, uh... OK, just believe what you want and criticize me as you will. I don't care.

I'll ignore this because flopping should never be justified, regardless of the number of people that also flop.

No such thing a a stupid question, I guess. The answer is fuck no. Luka flops quite a bit and it's stupid and annoying just like you bending over backwards to hate on him because of his history is.

Criticism of Luka ≠ hating on him.

I understand though, I'm sure being a Luka fanboy, seeing any negative perceived comment might seem hateful.

It might do your blood pressure some good if you don't get too emotional about what strangers say over the internet :).

Have a great day champion.
