lol. MJ was watched by millions. highest TV rating whenever he played. i probably saw more MJ games then most of people here, and he was not a flopper.
dudes did not act like they just got hit by mike tyson back then. back then it was body to body contact defense. handcheck was allowed and dudes really banged each other. there were alot of grabbing down there, pushing and shoving. hollywood acting was there, but it wasn't a major part of the game.
but somehow for some strange reason, flopping became a part of today's game. maybe because of rule changes? and just became a norm because few players like vlade, manu, etc just kept doing it over and over and other players got sick of it?
in soccer, youtube or no youtube, flopping(diving) was a part of the game as long as i remember.
