WATCH: ‘LeFlop’: LeBron Flops So Egregiously It Starts a Fight
Breitbart ^ | 5/24/21

Posted on 05/24/2021 2:43:58 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

If there were a flopping safety word that would make all of this stop, everyone should be screaming it right now. Chris Paul is a much, much smaller human than LeBron James.
There really is no scientific way in which Paul could have caused injury to James in this scenario. Yet, there is “The King,” writhing on the floor as his Laker teammates attempted to defend their leader’s “honor.”

Outrage online caused “LeFlop” to begin trending. If there’s any consolation, the Lakers lost to the Suns 99-90. It’s probably safe to say that LeBron James has done more to expand the Phoenix Suns fanbase than the Phoenix Suns have ever done.

Tweets and video at link. Awww, poor leBrony got a boo boo. As the late great roller derby announcer Elmer "Elbows" Anderson would say "looks like we have a Donnybrook going on!"

Lebron weighs 80 lbs more than the guy who barely touches him. Even die hard Lebron fans are giving him beef about this one.

Carefully choreographed, over-acted performances of “Agony”.
From what I hear, a lot of Soccer Pros do this quite a bit.

Lebron went down pretty hard, so I’m sure there was some impact. He teetered when he should have tottered.
It still looks somewhat overdone tho.

Oh man, I forgot the NBA season was still going on. I haven’t watched a single game in almost two years.

“... a lot of Soccer Pros do this quite a bit.”


YouTube has lots of examples of soccer flops. Some quite amusing. During a rugby match the ref (they’re miked up) told a player who had fallen and was hoping for a foul, “the soccer stadium is 500 years that way”.

Simple, Lebron wants to be a professional soccer player.

LeBron James shoulder injury after undercut by Chris Paul leads to fight!

Weak sauce.

Bill Laimbeer or Dennis Rodman would break any of these guys in half.

I haven’t watched since Doug Moe retired.

Did he return to the game or is he out for the season?

There was a YouTube trend called LeBroning where regular people would film themselves having massive overreactions to minor bumps from other people. King James has been a famous flopper for many years.

They should have a statistic for flopping.
