Manu flopped? No. Okur is a murderer.
Revenge is sweet!

Your team should be allowed to hack and grab with abandon.
Apparently, like real recognize real, recognize .
huh?
Every player in the league flops. Some get fewer opportunities, and some are not as polished at it. I'll gather some clips of your Pistons flopping, if you're interested.
Ginobili is a tough player, and he gets the living pounded out of him night after night. I can't count the number of times some cretin has whined about a Ginobili flop, and the replay shows him taking a hard shot to the face or a forearm clothsline. Yeh...that picture doesn't prove anything except that one of Manu's trips to the line last night was legitimate. But I'm sure we could dig up clips to show that a lot more of them were just as legit. Bottom line...Manu earned his points last night.
I don't think any Spurs fan would suggest that Manu never flops. But I also don't think that any fan of the game would believe that he flops nearly as often as George Karl or Mike D'Antoni would like you to believe. And I promise you that either one of those guys would kill to have him on their teams.
We've got trolls left over from the second round, and new ones coming in ahead of time for the Finals.
I think this is all blow back from the Phoenix series, alot of people wanted to see the suns win that series and win their first le and now, despite a real lack of flopping on Manu's part (maybe the first fisher T but that's the only one i can really think of) he's just getting pounded by the national media. I have a question though, how come no one ever looks back at the tape and says...hmmm, even though everyone is calling manu a flopper, i really havent seen a flop yet.
I bet woody paige will go on some 10 minute long rant about manu flopping in around the horn today
Yes, I agree. Manu ruined the series------------------- for Utah and all the Spur wannabe babies.
So, Manu is dirty for flopping, but Fisher and Williams are just playing good D when they do it. I think I got it, thanks.
That is a given.
Figures, that it takes an Aggie a while to get something.
Collins and Fisher both spend hours watching video of large-mouth bass landing in the boat. Yet, Manu ruins series'.
Well said.
I didn't suggest that Manu is the only flopper in the league. And, I've readily admitted that several of the Pistons players are floppers. But, there are several Spurs homers that infer or intimate that Manu is not much of a flopper at all.
He's one of the biggest floppers in the league. That's all I'm getting at.
As for being a troll, I'm not. Expressing my opinion is not being a troll. I been here since the 2003-04 regular season, I think. Check my post count. Check the content of my post history. I'm not a troll. If I'm a troll, there is a good percentage of Spurs fans that are trolls as well.
Flopping annoys me, no matter who does it: Manu, Fisher, Oberto, Okur.
I'll be glad when this series is over and I don't have to watch AK slide halfway across the court again after incidental contact.
The best flop of this series was Robert Horry's in game 3. Manu was getting hammered last night. So was Tim. I think the tomahawk chop is some kind of Jerry Sloan signature move. Boozer is mastering this move like Malone did before him.
I'll give Boozer credit though -- his block on Duncan was one of the best blocks I've ever seen.
I was going to say something to this effect, but you said it perfectly!
It's interesting to me that players across the league flop nightly, but it's not until Manu (or any Spur) does it, that it becomes a story.
They'll be watching it first hand by this time next week. Break out the tackle box!
FLops is a philosophy that starts in the bench .. you can see how Beno is practicing all the time
I was enjoying this series with Utah for the first three games specifically because the players were not flopping. It was actually basketball. But I quit watching last night because I hate the flopping- and Manu and Oberto are the worst culprits. It saddens me because Manu is my favorite player on the Spurs and I love to watch him play basketball- but I abhor the flopping. It makes it look like the team does not believe they can actually win playing basketball. It does not ruin it but it cheapens it. And it was out of control last night.
Is Mark Jackson stupid? Oh, wait, no need for a poll. thanks.
Lie. What you are getting at is that the Spurs somehow stole the game because manu fooled the officials into blowing the whistles. It's pathetic, it's trolling, and like I've said before, it's beneath you.
What am I getting at?
I'm getting at Manu's flopping. Flopping annoys me. I hate it when Rip and Chauncey do it. I criticize them as well. I see Manu do it, and I'll discuss it.
Never did I even suggest that his flopping meant the officials gave the game to the Spurs. Don't put words in my mouth.
I don't like flopping. I felt Manu flopped several times last night when he didn't need to. That's all.
Call it whatever you want. I'm not trolling. I'm just adding to discussion. If you don't like my opinion, ignore it.
You are full of , and you are wrong. If you don't like me pointing out the complete and total lack of facts behind your flawed opinion, don't give them.
LMAO
Believe what you want to believe and I'll do the same.
Manu hasn't flopped nearly as much as in previous years, and then last night's game happened.
He is still a huge flopper. Sure, he gets hit hard a lot of times, but that doesn't stop him from exaggerating to the point of flopping if it will help him sell the foul call.
Get over yourself.
