Kobe likes the new rule. "Shameless flopping, that's a chump move," he says. Says Vlade "kind of pioneered it." #stoptheflop

Tweet of the Day: Brian Mahoney
Tweet of the Day goes to Brian Mahoney, who quoted Kobe Bryant on his thoughts about the new flopping rules set by the NBA. Some players (Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Anderson Varejao, Manu Ginobili, etc) aren’t going to be thrilled with the idea of being fined for something they’ve become so adept at doing, but players that almost never flop – players like Bryant – ought to be thrilled with the new rules. Bryant is not a fan of flopping
