Epic Drop: Top 10 Alternate Punishments for Flopping

Your link is here, and seriously... flopping needs to end in our lifetime, and it would if we had just a half dozen refs with any trace of balls. If they just spent a game or two calling fake flops technicals, I guarantee you'd see a better game. Within just one ballsy week...

The obvious solution is a hockey-style approach. Give a technical foul for the dive AND empower the refs to call the foul and the dive on the same play. ("Yeah, he hit you, but not THAT hard.")

That provides an incentive to play through the foul (instead of flopping) even when the player is certain that the foul was committed.
