Chris Paul= REAL BAD FLOPPER

[ShoogarBear]

Funny, if you go to youtube and search "nba champs", 18 of 20 results are about the Spurs.

[GinobiliLooms]

Well, see...the thing is, Chris Paul is taking the flop to a whole new level. A whole new paradigm of shameless floppage. When most players flop there is at least some sort of initial contact that could possibly have caused the reaction in the player being fouled. But chris Paul has just completely ignored that, falling backwards ten feet when a Spurs player looks at him worng, owning himself in regards to his level of flopping noobage.

i think this is a good way to see who the entire world thinks flops the most

Exactly. who everyone thinks flops the most. It's all about perceptions perpetuated by the media. Spurs are boring, they're the biggest floppers. While they may be boring at times (when they play like crap) and while they have a few players who like to exaggerate contact... people just latch on to these notions and never try to judge for them selves or accept that many more teams fit this description of boring or floppers.

Seeing as how the Spurs have won the most NBA championships in recent years, it's doesn't take a rocket scientist to determine they've also gotten a larger ANTI-Spurs fan base as well. I bet if you traced those YouTube posts, you'd find they were people who despise the Spurs.

IOW, your theory blows.

I think when you look at what Paul is doing you can say that he taken flopping to a new level. Before, a flop occurred because a player runs into you and you drop like you're shot out of a gun.

For Paul, he runs into other people and drops like he is shot out of a cannon. His flops would be hilarious if he didn't get the call every time he drops. It's kind of like watching a bad movie that keeps getting the academy award.

[poo-doe wayne-o]

lol not trying to be definitive, and i dont have a theory.

just searched nba flops to try to find the paul flop (which is very funny looking) and stating what i found.

and i still think its funny. sorry

He's not even close to getting a call on his ridiculous flops all the time. He got a few in Gm 3, but in Gms 1+2, and about half of them in Gm 3 the officials just ignored them.

I cracked up on the flop that got a foul on TP. TP put his hand on CP3's waist and CP3 fell like he was punched in the face.

[Jonesy77]

I've never seen Manu flop nearly as badly as what Paul did with Oberto. Falling down is one thing... what Paul did is ridiculous.

Dude has crazy game, and I don't mind if he exaggerates what is a clear foul on him. To me, that's not even flopping, it's just drawing the attention of the official to contact. Flying across the lane in 360 form and then rolling because you got tapped is ridiculous, and I've never seen Manu do it that I can recall.

That's exactly my point. He's untrained at an effective flop. It's sloppy now, but he'll get better.

Ogden Nash said it best:

I think that I shall never see,
A Flopper as accomplished as Gin-o-b'li.
But if Ginobili never fell,
Three Spurs rings would go to .

I have to admit, Chris Paul has picked this up. Maybe he just learned you have to do, what you have to do to win. I don't think anyone can deny he is a great player.


On a side note, what happened here last night? I am guessing a brawl broke out, smack thread gone, and all.

[Jonesy77]

I think he has taken Vlade Divacs crown.

That's ridiculous. He would need about 10 more years in the league to touch Divac.

Word. Someone people lack the common sense to connect the dots though

Paul does suck at it, and so does the entire Hornets team. They need to watch Ginobili and Fab and learn a few things.

Please show me where Manu has EVER flopped like that.

If (massive if) you win the le this year, you will have no room to talk about the Spurs as accomplished floppers, since your best player is by far the most obvious at exaggerating contact.

Or Horry...Now this man knows how to not embarrass us, no anger, no ing, no 360 twirls.. Just old school flopping...


Paul's got a lot to learn about the art.

I think this is a good way to see that the Spurs just beat the Suns in the playoffs. Again. And Suns fans are still blaming it on the refs.
