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....
I actually called a T on this a couple years ago, and I'm the only one I know of who's called it.
That said, it was a 4th grade YMCA game. I'd already warned the kid and the coach, and he was flopping when the ball handler was about three feet away from him. It was so blatant and obvious it needed called. Only one I've ever called.
