Manu's Flopping: as analyzed by a trained actor

[lotr1trekkie]

"Trained actor" would never get up if he endured a "flop" against Manu. Compared to most players Manu is 'Maximus' from GLADIATOR. You want him in a foxhole with you at the Argon Forest. You want him in the French Underground. You want him next to you on Normandy Beach. He is and always will be a warrior. The rest of this post is bull .

Yeah, Manu is indeed a flopper. Always has been, and still is. But so what...

Manu doesn't flop.

Defintion of a trained actor: An actor that does gay porno films.

Thanks for validating my point, Spurs fan.

So predictable.

Those are a couple of decent flops by Manu. One of my personal favorite floppers is Pau The Screamer Gasol. I wouldn't be surprised if Pau yells "Hey" in his sleep throughout the night.

Pau got called for the foul on his flop here:

I hear that a lot, but there's not much evidence to support it. What annoyed Spurs opponents during those years was Manu's long hair, because he could jerk his head when he took contact and draw attention. Even flinching to protect his face ended up looking dramatic. It's no coincidence that the complaints dried up for the most part once he cut off his hair.

Manu only had long hair in 2005. And i had no problem with him jerking his head. I had problems with him taking dives when there is almost no contact...which he rarely does now. He now does exaggerate contact (like when he dribbles by a screen, he tends to recoil back if theres any contact...but only with his upper body, so he can continue dribbling if theres no contact) but he doesn't flat out go to the ground over nothing.

I have a feeling neither CP3, Dirk, or any of the other famous floppers in the league have ever been in danger of having the nickname El Contusion.

Don't recall him ever doing that. He's been accused of it a lot, mostly buy guys who can't figure out how to stop him.
