Ray Allen...flops with the best of them. HOF WORTHY?

[sooperhooper]

he has let pierce adulterate his mind. If a player gets close to ray, son falls back like someone took his soul

Big baby is just as bad.
It's almost like a dance or something to them.

To the guy that said flopping is a part of the game and the NBA allows it, that doesn't take away from the fact that it's a coward move. Exact same as faking an injury.

In real life, when you exaggerate something in attempt to gain reward, it's called Fraud.

The guy has one really bad game and he isnt good anymore? He is one of the greatest shooters to ever play the game and games like game 2 prove it

 

[jonnny25]

pierce flops too...but neither are as bad as gasol and fisher....does kobe throwing his arms up and yelling 'heyyyyyyyyyyy' everytime he gets touched count as flopping?

 

[its that dude]

Allen has a career average of 20.5 ppg on 45% FG. Kobe also has a career average of 45% on FGs.

Ray Allen is one of greater basketball players at shooting 3's, but that's not enough to get into the HOF.

I just felt something needed to be said about Ray Allen's flopping.

How you gonna call out Ray when:

1. Your team WON the damn game.
2. Your team has 2 of the most notorious floppers in the game today.

If this guy is serious.... If I were a Laker fan I'd quit just because of guys like you. Embarrassing.

But you're an Ohio State fan...

One of??????????

In a season or 2 he will be all time 3pts made. Did you just recently start watching the NBA? When you are the all time best at a certain key aspect of the game then yes that is good enough for the Hall.

Yea he flops and yes its annoying to watch players flop but thats what not so great defenders have to do to get some kind of edge. Utah players had to do it all series against Melo because they just couldnt guard him. Ray does it to Kobe cuz he cant guard him. It sucks that the European players brought that over but its part of the game now and we will have to live with it until officials stop rewarding bad defenders for falling over when a player tries to turn the corner on them. #quiturbitchin

 

[doublejs07]

Wow....now we're questioning Ray's HOF credentials????

Where was this question after game 2?

 

[scuse7]

Making the most 3's in a season and soon becoming the all time leader isn't anything HOF worthy?

Leave S&T

He's not the greatest 3 point shooter. that's for damn sure. not the most made 3-pointers nor the best 3 point shooting percentage.

And why didn't I bring this up after game 2? I didn't watch game 2.

I went fishing.

Why the hate on Ray? ..he's one of the likeable players in the league

...Paul pierce on the other hand

 

[lesfamilia]

For what it's worth, I'd take Reggie Miller over Ray Allen in terms of all time, but Ray still has a couple of years or so left.

First it was Pierce, now Allen so next week someone will undoubtedly question Kevin Garnett's HOF credentials.

 

[ph3n0m3n0n]

All I wanna know is how the hell did he manage to miss every single shot he took yesterday?

Co sign EVERYTHING you just said.

  

 

[djhyper66]

To help solve the probelm with flopping, NBA players should be banned from wearing hip pad, elbow pad, knee pads, chest pad. Back in the 80s 90s you didnt really see player in the NBA wear pads. Now all these NBA players are wearing all these pads to help protect them when there flopping on the floor.


I hate flopping.

Just stop. He needs 117 3s to become the all time leader in made 3s. He will get that before the all star break next year. He is a shoe in for the Hall.

You should go fishing more often. Then maybe we wouldnt get these terrible posts.

He's already going to the HOF, This is nothing to him.
