A good indication of the flop is when the player starts falling over before ball carrier has even made any contact. That and I can't stand when they grunt and make load noises.

Rule 4
SECTION 23 GUARDING
ART. 3 . . . After the initial legal guarding position is obtained:
a. The guard is not required to have either or both feet on the floor or continue facing the opponent.
b. The guard may move laterally or obliquely to maintain position,provided it is not toward the opponent when contact occurs.
c. The guard may raise hands or jump within his/her own vertical plane.
d. The guard may turn or duck to absorb the shock of imminent contact.

I don't see what that has to do with anything. Falling backwards isn't turning or ducking.
|
Is it movement towards the opponent?

POE pg 71 "The "actor" falls to the court as though he or she were knocked down by the force of the contact."

Snake,
A defender who leans backward before or during contact is not acting.
He's taking a charge.
If there's obviously no contact the POE says to T him up.
You T him up?
