#2: The ole’ flop-n-nap combo

Lance Stephenson may be a nice ball player but he’s also a “born ready” salesman. Lance is S-E-L-L-I-N-G this flop. Stephenson inadvertently runs into LeBron James while getting back on defense, throws his arms upon contact, and hurls his body backward to draw a foul on James. It’s an admirable thing try and get James in foul trouble; it just never works. Stephenson gets called for a blocking foul and decides to rest his eyes for a second near half court.

Lucky for the internet, ESPN’s cameras caught Lance peeking his eyes at just the right time. It’s like when you’re a kid trying to fake sleeping when your mom comes in to check on you. If it works, then you stay up late. If it doesn’t work, well at least you tried.
