Wheeler did flop but how in hell do we get a tech flop given the eons of flops we endured
That flop call on Wheeler
- Thread starter K_TIME
- Start date
I’m not a wheeler hater but damn I hate flopping. It was a bad look
I didn’t even know you could get a tech for it it’s happened so many times against us
Any block/charge call the refs just flip a coin, they have no consistency.
UCLA gave them plenty of chances to get back in the game and the offense was utter crap! Guys jacking up shots. No offense. Played like they are coached.
I’d be fine with the flop if the play was called dead at that point as the shooter hadn’t started his shot motion. But you can’t wait til he scores and then call the flop TOO.
It was 100% a flop. The technical was the right call and whoever taught or told him to do that crap should be fired.
That was a flop. He started falling before that Jacquez even put this second foot down. That was about as blatant as they get FWIW
I agree with you. But I don’t think I have seen a flop call until tonight. If they are going to call it, then call every one of them.
That wasn't a flop. He got hit by a guy that is a foot taller than him and probably has 40 lbs on him. Tell ya what...go find someone measuring that size compared to you and see what happens.
Go watch the replay...he definitely took a hit. He tried to sell it but there was contact.
Glad to see the call. Needs to be done more in the college game. By the way, Wheeler got caught on a bad switch two possessions in a row. A classic Cal weakness.
And a no call on the flop from UCLA a few possessions before...college basketball officiating is awful
Come on, that was a blatant flop lol.
I’m glad they called it. Wish they would call it on the other team.
You are a fvcking idiot. Wheeler was barely grazed. Watch it as many times as you like. It was 100% a flop and only a idiot would think otherwise. Wheeler isn't some fragile little wimp. He collapsed backward like he'd been hit by a .50 caliber round.
Total crap that we have a player trying to pull this ****. Personally, I'd liked to have seen him pulled from the game and sent to the locker room. That's Dook level crap.
I really don't think it was that bad. The contact was there, and the offensive player clearly has 6 inches on him and likely 20 to 30lbs.
Did Wheeler sell it? Sure. But I didn't think it was that bad.
A BAD flop is when a player falls when he THINKS he's about to get touched, but doesn't.
Either way, if you call that, then you better call it when it happens to us, because I've seen that "flop" happen every game with our opponent.
Well thanks. Glad to see good people like you exist. Because we disagree, I'm an idiot?
He tried to sell it. My definition of a flop is when you don't get touched. Not when you take a forearm and fall down.
More inconsistent officiating.
Watched a game the other day. They took away an offensive foul after going to the monitor because the defender flopped. No technical foul called.

I don’t think many argue it was a flop
I’ve seen a warning for flop but never a tech. How we get it and the mountain of them we endure is insane
Well, THREE refs agreed it was a flop. As did the announcers and a majority of UK fans commenting in this thread.
So, yeah...you're an idiot.
It wasn't a great sell but yeah JJ could have been called for a charge. He definitely initiated contact with Wheeler.
Wheeler knew he was flopping when he pulled that mismatch again. If he’s gonna get put out in space defending someone like Jacquez, he doesn’t really have many plays unless the help comes hard.
Yeah that's the other thing... I thought we're supposed to get a warning?
This **** always seems to happen to Kentucky. Players spike a ball every game, but when we do it, and it can change the outcome of the game, it's a foul.

Oh, so now we support refs and announcers, lol?
Those same refs missed multiple initiated body leans by the same guy. Elbows to the gut. Announcers, haha...Bill Rafferty, good lord. This board? Questionable...at best.
Look, my point is a flop is when there is no contact. Think the kid at Louisville or Grayson Allen. Again, Wheeler got bumped, hitz whatever you want to call it...he tried to sell it. He didn't act like he got shot. It should have been a no call or offensive...JJ initiated contact.
Did JJ hit Wheeler? Yes or no? I don't give a **** if it was barely. Answer the question.
It’s been a point of emphasis for like 3-4 seasons now. STILL, I NEVER see it called.
What would’ve happened if that was Oscar instead Jacquez?
I know what the call would’ve been

Meh not clicking. They’ve said this for at least 3 seasons now.
I think they changed the rule this year where it’s an automatic technical. No warnings anymore.
