Here’s Video Of The Time The Thunder’s James Harden Flopped On National TV

The Oklahoma City Thunder had just cut their deficit to 19 points in the third quarter when big bad Tyson Chandler of the Mavericks didn't hit little good-actor James Harden in the face with an elbow.

As the commentator said, "He sold it well enough to get a technical foul on Tyson Chandler." This was true enough. His pal who tried to draw some sort of Derek Jeter analogy added that floppers should get fined, like $15,000 "or they'll never stop."
