In many sports, diving can be said to be a violation of morality. In NBA, players will not only be sentenced to technical fouls for diving, but will also be fined or even suspended, but even with such a ban, it is still impossible to prevent players from being present. on the show.
There is still an essential difference between diving and making a foul. Just like an actor's performance is good or bad, it is a foul to deceive the defender with technical moves, and it is a diving to use poor acting to deceive the referee. Today we're going to talk about five performing artists in NBA history.
- The fifth place, Chris Paul
2012-13 season, the league officially introduced anti-diving rules, and Chris Paul has become the biggest star in the official promotional video of this rule. With an outrageous diving, he won Sports Illustrated's best diving of the year in one fell swoop. The victim of this ball, Paul chose the player who was most prone to overheating and the referee least wanted to see - Cousins , in the case of almost no contact, Paul screamed and opened his arms and fell backwards Go, leaving Cousins blank.
And Cousins has made no secret of his public distaste for Paul's diving. When the Clippers and Kings met again, Cousins smashed the ball angrily before Paul could perform his stunt. And this ball referee also stood on Cousins' side and awarded the King's backcourt ball.
- The fourth place, Manu Ginobili
In his career, he won four championships and was selected as an All-Star twice, but in addition to these great achievements, he also has the consistent style of and South American players in the diving field.
Twenty years ago, Manu Ginobili played in Italy , and found that fans there were particularly fond of diving. As long as he falls to the ground, fans of both the home team and the away team will shout and cheer him on.So whenever Ginobili collided, he slumped on the ground, and the referee blew the whistle. The fans are all overjoyed, and especially love to see such exaggerated performances. After being drafted by the Spurs , Ginobili brought this stunt to the NBA.
In the 2005 playoffs, Ray Allen once said angrily: "He is too fake. When attacking, the three of them can't hold it, but when defending, he falls down when he touches it, his hair flutters everywhere, like being shot!"
In 2011, Manu Ginobili was the most diving shooting guard in history, according to the American media bleachers selection. However, Ginobili did not agree with this. He once said in an interview in 2016, "I became famous for diving. It was in 2005 because Nuggets coach George Karl often complained to the media. Obviously I'm jealous of my hair, you guys go and see the video of my past games, maybe the acting was a bit exaggerated at first, but then when I hit O'Neal with the ball, can I not fall? That's really not intentional."
- The third place, Marcus Smart
In the history of the Boston Celtics, most players are immovable and tough guys. However, in every era, there are also a few weak and powerless. Players who are blown away by the wind. In today's Green Army formation, Smart is such a rising star in the "wrestling world". His best move is carp and . In a game against the Heat in 2019, he was scratched by James Johnson with a flick of his hand. The referee immediately called the Heat a foul. Seeing that the plan was successful, Smart used a carp to hit him and got up with satisfaction. Such excellent waist and abdomen strength shocked the old aunt in the audience.
When he grabbed an offensive rebound once, Smart was gently touched from behind, and he subconsciously bounced forward. As a result, when I turned around, I realized that it was a teammate.In the other round, Smart reached the bottom line, threw himself out of thin air, and threw himself out of thin air. Unfortunately, the referee ignored him at all.
- Second place Divac
Most of the foreign players who played diving in the NBA started early. As a representative of Serbian basketball, Divac is one of the first international players to enter the NBA, and is considered by many to be the originator of diving in the NBA. Divac once argued that he was diving simply to defend O'Neal, because he was too strong to prevent him within the normal rules. But in fact, Divac had a criminal record when he first entered the league. Divac arrived for the first time in 1989, with a thin body and innocent eyes. When he encountered the impact of the NBA strong man, it was inevitable that he could not resist and fell to the ground. According to him in 1995, "Most of the time I fall because I'm not strong enough ".
Later, Divac left the Lakers and went to the Hornets and the Kings. His hair was getting thinner and stronger, but he fell to the ground more and more frequently. At this time, the bearded man said to him, "I really don't know. Knowing what diving is, you can see that Fisher is more fake than me." In 2015, Divac finally admitted his performances generously, and also made a video show "Flop or Not with Vlade Divac".
If you want to talk about the diving of Varejao , then you don't have to be polite, absolutely the first generation in history is not enough to watch, and the younger generation can't catch up. Varejao was born in Brazil, and because he had been on the football field since he was a child, he naturally learned this "special skill" from the "advanced field of diving".
Varejao never forcibly fell to the ground, relying solely on his strength. In the omnipresent confrontation, once the opposite side made a move that might violate the rules, he could immediately fly out, just right. The strongest thing about Varejao is that he can realistically act out the painful feeling after he falls, amplifying the confrontation effect several times. So the referee can't do anything, because someone obviously fell in front of his eyes, and the opposing player did foul.
Relying on his excellent "falling" technique, Varejao occupied a record. In the 2006-07 season, he made 99 offensive fouls and league first in a single season. And what is the concept of this data? Lowry led the league in 2017-18 with 54 offensive fouls, 45 fewer than Varejao. In the 016-17 season, Varejao appeared in the finals between the Warriors and the Cavaliers. As soon as he played in the first game, he made an offensive foul. When he fell, Varejao pushed his left foot on the ground, in order to perform the effect of sliding backwards. In theory, Varejao's physique will never fall, but it is difficult for the referee not to blow this kind of ball, because Love really gave moves under the confrontation, so I have to say that the actor's performance is just right.
In the fifth game, Varejao played for about three minutes in the first half. In this short three minutes, he fell to the ground four times, and once let James walk in the air. Two free throws were made, and only the last time James made a foul, the referee really couldn't stand it, and then sentenced the Cavaliers to the frontcourt ball. In the finals, Varejao played in five games, and in a total of 32 minutes of playing time, he fell 14 times and caused seven offensive fouls.
