Flop.
Lol at Mark Jackson. "You don't know how bad I wanted to do this when I played for Jeff Van Gundy."
Flop.
Horry: Are you OK Pop?
Pop: Yes, I'm just flopping like Varejao
Varejao: No, I'm way worse than that
the most amazing thing about the picture is that varejao somehow didn't end up on the floor on that play, that possibly explains his confused look.
He's giving lessons to Pop
Y'all got it wrong......you see, Pop had a discussion with Rob before the game about resolving the stupid issue of his recently acquired moniker of "dirty player" by letting RHorry put a hit on him, and so Pop outlined a manuever for Big Hit Rob to take on him, Pop hitting the floor but getting up without fists swinging, the crowd not leaving their seats to pat Rob on the back for knocking Pop for his brainfart subs utions thereby letting the refs off the hook for T-ing up the crowd, DStern and the media swollenheads got their drama for viewership numbers, and Pop got to make a semi-funny at the podium mike which helped him calm down since he was so livid about the Spur's 4th quarter meltdown.
It's a win-win for everybody!
I just wish Pop would have pulled the Steve-Nash-spread-eagle-I-might-have-just-been-murdered pose.
That was Pops best Steve Nash imitation...what a flop at the end!
Knocking people into the scorer's table is good luck... even if it's Pop.
Go Rob Go!
what was Bavetta trying to do?
hilarious!
Those of you who Tivo'd that play should look at Horry's face right after he took down Pop.
Horry grimaced like he knocked down a whole bunch of vases at a Mikasa store.
was like, REMEMBER WHEN TIMMY DID THAT TO ME, now you know.
Popovich takes charge, in more than one way

SAN ANTONIO (AP) -- San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is used to being in charge.
On Sunday night, he took a charge.

In the fourth quarter of the Spurs' 103-92 Game 2 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night, Robert Horry had so much momentum as he tried to save a ball on the sideline that he ran out of bounds, smack dab into his boss.
Both of them went down hard against the scorer's table.
"That's all I could do," Popovich said, remembering his athletic days at the Air Force Academy. "That's the best thing I could do as a player is fall down."
"I was so scared," said Horry, who had five blocks, five points and nine rebounds in 26 minutes Sunday. "I was like, 'Please don't be hurt, please don't be hurt.' But he jumped up fast, that shows you how tough he is."
Horry, whom Popovich called "our star" on Sunday, has been here before.
In Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Phoenix Suns, Horry checked Steve Nash, who tumbled into the scorer's table. Horry's move started a mini-scrum on the court and resulted in a two-game suspension for Horry and a one-game suspension for the Suns' Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw, who left the bench area but weren't involved.
Next time, Horry has some advice for his coach.
"Get out of my way," he joked. "Just jump up, jump up on the scorer's table, a la Steve Nash."
Yeah, I saw that...
Flopovich!

Now that would have been entertaining.I just wish Pop would have pulled the Steve-Nash-spread-eagle-I-might-have-just-been-murdered pose.
"Hey Karl, how about a high fi-hey what are you doing, oh god... whyyyyyy!!?"
What's hilarious is his legs flew into the air after he already performed a 360 with his body. Way to sell the flop, Pop!
Pop learn fast on the art of flopping from Manu...
"That's all I could do," Popovich said, remembering his athletic days at the Air Force Academy. "That's the best thing I could do as a player is fall down."
I never thought about it that way. If you just fall down when you are hit like that, you can keep yourself from getting hurt. We always think of it as a flop, but maybe it is more than that. It's an attempt to keep from getting hurt. I'm slow, I know!
And when they played it in slow motion, you can read Horry's lips: "Oh, !"
Pop flopped like a mofo.
