There's a pretty funny article from Yahoo Sports with videos of the new craze sweeping the country: LeBronning or flopping.

http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/dish/201401/new-internet-trend-lebroning-mocks-heat-stars-exaggerated-flops

Not only is it becoming common parlance among kids, but also other professional athletes:

LeBroning isn't specific to basketball, however, and now any exaggerated flop can be termed "LeBroning." Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee tweeted this in response to Cam Newton's flop on Sunday.

Quote
Cam's been watching these high schoolers #Lebroning obviously

It makes me sick to think he's gonna be in the same Hall of Fame as Bill Russell. If you tried that with him he'd punch you in the face and the refs would say "Well what did you expect?"

This Euro trash soccer stuff has got to be eliminated from US sports

2 rings with 2 other top 10 players at the time might be confirmation of greatness which nobody ever really doubter unless they were a homer of hate with kool aide stains on their shirt.

He has never been a model of Sportsmanship and this is just a not so subtle reminder that folks don't respect a guy that gets every call has only fouled out ofa game 3 times in 5 years (if you watch his traveling and drives you know he is getting superstar calls a lot especially with 3 fouls and he got the sack to call out Mirza for that semi horse collar?

Anyone forget his last game as a Cav? Go youtube that. He was done before the 4th qtr and he took his shirt off before he left the court. He was done in Cleve right then and many knew it it just took a foolish media to make a "Decision" out of no decision at all. If you watched that Celts game you saw the decision. Some say Wade brought out his worst side....nah...it's the other way around. LeBron was a quitter and a crybaby when Wade was known as a Team leader. I dislike them both and Wade moreso but he had nothing to do with Lebron being a prom queen...he was like that before he left Cleve.

Short memories.
Lotta people got them.

I love Mirza trolling him on Twitter. He has reached the appex. It's all down hill from here Mr James.

Lebron has the biggest talent/hype/accomplishment to respect ratio deficit I've ever seen.

ESPN fawns on him and so does the NBA to make money but players and fans don't respect him and won't for a while.

the thing I hate about "bron" the most. is the influence he's having on kids aspiring to play in the NBA some day.

I can't even fathom what this league will look like in 20 yrs.

Back in my day, we yelled "GINOBILIIIIII" and everyone would hit the deck.  That's the way it was and we liked it!  *shakes cane*
