NBA Keeps Flopping Rules But Expands Replay......

[APG]

How would the NBA penalty (which is a fine system which ramps up to possible suspension(s)) translate to the NFHS level? If one really wanted to, you could assess a technical foul for faking being fouled, but that T is only used for Ray Charles type of situations...more often than not, it's either no-called or called a block (which is a discussion that's been had here before).

"ray charles" ? ! ? not sure of what that means in terms of relevance here--unless that is "referee trade jargon" for flopping?
help me out here?

So obvious that even a blind person could see it.

No call usually works at the high school level, and the coaches virtually always understand.

Plus the NBA issues many of the fines / suspensions aftger looking at the video, and from a central office. Both of which would be difficult to implement in a HS environment.

The "trickle down" might be that kids start to see less of it, or see that it's being penalized, and stop trying it as much at the HS level.

We continue to see the "senior circuits" influence the junior leagues (under shirts (Ewing), arm sleeves (AI), head bands (Wallace maybe), and now we're on to leg sleeves). Let's hope this is one "trickle down" for the better.......

Instead of Wallace, try Walton (and not the current player).

Instead of Walton, try Wilt Chamberlain.
