To me a flop is best described as more of "A1 anticipates incidental contact from B" and then falls to the floor all alone at the contact.....
Saw a T for that last year....

That's actually irrelevant coach. You adjudicate the legality of a player's LGP at the point of contact, not where they end up after the contact.
A flop is defined as
faking a foul. It's penalized as such under NFHS rule 10-3-7(f)--
"faking being fouled".If the contact was sufficient at the point of contact to actually have a foul, you then make up your mind whether that foul is on the offensive or defensive player.
Flop---->little of no contact, faking a foul,technical foul or no call/possible warning.
Block/charge-----> sufficient
illegal contact to have a personal foul, either a block or charge.
That's the usual way that it's been taught(at least in my experience).
