Answer 6

flopping and taking a charge are done for the same reason, to get an offensive foul charged against the offense, but flopping is like an acting job. A player takes slight impact, impact that is not strong enough to force a player to the ground, and acts well enough to make it seem as if it was an offensive foul. in the 2008-09 season, they are charging fees to players who flop

Answer 7

you cant really tell unless you watch basketball a lot, flopping is when a person falls on purpose to try to get the ref to call a foul and blocking/charging is when the player actually gets hits hard and falls

Answer 8
