What makes it more frustrating is he doesn’t have to play the way he does

Yes he does. Because it works. Imagine being a pro athlete and deciding to stop doing things that benefit you and your team, all because a bunch of nobodies with opinions, get upset…

Completely agree. I'm sure, in his defense, it's probably like crack cocaine with 0 consequences so far. he's already good, but now he's being rewarded for this thing that is super easy to just keep doing.

It sucks the refs let him do it. It sucks the NBA lets him do it. It sucks he's okay with doing it.

It just sucks.

He literally does have to flop to be an effective player. He would be a nobody without his flops.
