foul calls in the playoffs

I thought they were suppose to start looking at these floppers and limit the number of times they make a call b/c someone flies across the floor when he gets his jersey tugged.  THere are times during the game where it's just impossible to remain interested b/c everyone wants to fall to the ground if a guy runs to close to him.

Plus, what's with all of the tripping calls?  If a guy is standing still and you stumble b/c you step on his foot; its not a foul on the defender.  He has just as much right to that space as the guy w/ the ball.  I relaize these are great athletes, but it is also possible that they can trip on their own feet.  It's getting to a point that all it takes is for a player to fall to the ground and he will immediately get the other team in foul trouble.

The NBA needs to look into this NOW and start penalizing these floppers and stop blowing the whistle b/c a guy trips on his own feet and he's near a defender.
