    It's just a fun thing to do.

    I would give the following flop by Baron Davis a grade of "F-" for example -



    This one by Robert Horry gets a "D+" because he at least tried to time it with the extension of Boozer's arm -

    You know, now that you guys mention it, Ginobili's right foot seems to slip off of Raja's shoe. Interesting. You have a point. Probably wasn't a flop after all.

    Another point of fact is that if Manu is going to flop there is going to be at least 6 to 8 feet of him sliding across the floor in some direction or another...and that just didn't happen this time. No flop.

    Yes, his one foot was on top of Raja's, which coulda resulted in an injury if he didn't slide off.

    Yes, Raja's other leg brushed Manu's left knee, which MAY have caused him to slightly lose balance.

    But there's no other way to explain the kick-out other than to say: "he sold it."

    I don't know if the floor guys were not doing their jobs or what, but that's at least the 2nd time Manu slipped in the game at that end of the floor.

    If CP3 was there and was part of that, he would have wound up in the 15th row. Just saying....

    Did Raja look good enough for the Spurs to go after? I'm pretty sure the Jazz want to rebuild and ship AK47.. possibly even in that Melo deal. Should we try to get involved in it?

    Raja Bell's statline for Wed's game in 34 mins a' work:

    0-3 FGM-A, 1 REB, 1 AST, 6 PF (5 fouls +1 T), 1 TO

    Yeah, let's get right on that...

    Flopping is an art, not everyone can sell it. Manu, Horry, CP, Baron, Fisher, Varejao are considered maestro of this art. LOL!

    Just so others may get a chance to see this video, I will repost this post of mine from the other thread in the NBA forum:

    wow, that's one of the funniest and most pathetic things I've ever seen


    terrible acting...the dude on the left flops down first even though he initiated 100% of the contact, rammed his head not vice versa, and the guy on the right reacts by shoving the guy first (his body's natural defensive reaction) and then forgetting he could be flopping also so then flops a second late with the dumbest ing execution

    IF ANYONE HASN'T WATCHED THIS VIDEO, PLEASE DO.

    also... Bell caught manu's left leg tucked underneath him with his right foot and basically tripped him...

    It was actually a pretty dangerous play considering Manu's past ankle problems...

    Certainly not a flop.
