Kobe is one of the leagues top whiners.

Him, Lebron and Duncan are head and shoulders above the rest.

However, "flopping" is something that Kobe isn't known for.

Let's do a quick youtube search of "kobe bryant flops" and see what we get.


This is the first video on the list that is actually dedicated to Kobe. It's definitely a flop. The fact that Gasol hit him in the eye and he grabbed his eye afterwards isn't important.


That one is bad too! He falls down after a contested three. For some reason he left out an important part of the flop - the part where you look at the ref and try to get the call. It's like he was wanting to get back up and actually play basketball or something. Silly!


This is actually a legit "flop". He's actually been suspended for flailing his arms like that and hitting people twice. Phil put together a highlight tape of Kobe shooting in practices and games over the year to show the league that there is a handful of situations that he flails his arms like that involuntarily - the league didn't buy it - but nice try, Phil. Like the vid above, Kobe needs to work on looking at the refs on these flops. He got the call regardless, though

This is evidently the only guy that has wasted more time on this argument than I have. Just watch it - funny stuff. This is probably a flop too, but the theatrics just aren't there.


This is probably a flop as well - but if you go by the book, it was an offensive foul because Harden extended his arm to get space.

I've posted five instances of Kobe flopping. That is pretty much EVERY instance on youtube of Kobe flopping when you search. There is one more video of the Harden flop, some junk about him flopping in a video game and some vids of other people flopping. By the time you get to the bottom of the page there are no more videos of kobe. I'd say if you went through the rest of the videos you would find a few, but they are few and far in between.

Here are some Kobe quotes on flopping.





But much to my disdain - in a player vote a few years back - Kobe was ranked top 20 in the league for flopping.

It's so sad that people think Kobe flops. These people where trying way to hard to find something... and this is literally the best that they can do HAHAHA.

Sorry Kobe doesn't flop around like a dead fish, or act like he was shot in the head or something.

I have no clue about that player vote, but I'd like to see what they saw, I must be blind or something if
Kobe flops and Lebron doesn't.

:lmao:
