The NBA is testing some new rules.
in the 2012-13 season, the league hasn't enforced the rule nearly as much in recent years.
But the NBA's flopping issue came under the spotlight once again in the 2023 playoffs. During the first round, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr accused the Lakers of gamesmanship and"I think, to me, what I’ve learned coaching in FIBA ... There’s a flop rule," Kerr said."If a referee deems a player has flopped, they just call it a technical foul, and it’s pretty penalizing.
"I think we should address it, because the players are so smart, and the entire regular season is about gamesmanship and trying to fool the refs. And this is how it’s been for a while, and it’s up to us as a league. Do we want to fix this? ... These are all things that are my personal plea to the NBA. I think we can do better in terms of cleaning up the flopping. In the meantime, I give the Lakers credit for the plays that they’ve been able to sell.
