@ indignant fans of teams that have floppers as well.
Nobody likes you majicman. Go away.
Yeah Ginobili was selling the flop with his body. He changed shooting hands due to some actual minor contact.
I think Allen made contact with Manu, but unless you're Kobe Bryant or Dwyane Wade or Lebron James, you're not likely to get that call. Ginobili's history of flops doesn't help him -- I've actually noticed that he's taking more contact this year without getting calls than he has in the past, perhaps because officials are leery of "getting flopped" into a call, which is understandable. Of course, it never stopped them from making calls for John Stockton . . . .
Umm ... where was the cheating again? What did Manu do to flop again? He pretty much went up, leaned in, tried to get a foul, didn't, and fell, I doubt there is a single person on earth who would not fall jumping at that angle trying to shoot a basketall from 25 ft out.
Good no foul by Tony Allen, good no call too.
I think Celtics fan is upset that his team is the best in the NBA, but there is a perceived bias against the Celtics in the national media.
All I have to say to that is... you. The Spurs lose to the best team in the NBA without our starting PG, but it's an upset?!?
If the Celtics make it to the Finals, the media will be creaming all over themselves.
And with the Lakers surging and Shaq back in the West, the Spurs are again going to be ignored. Which is fine by me, honestly. I'll take another Championship over media blow-jobs anyday of the week.
Not on the 3 point attempt at the end of the game.Did Tony Allen foul Manu?
Did Tony Allen foul Manu on other plays? Absolutely. The pushes from behind were particularly effective. Allen is an excellent defender. Tony was one of my favorite players coming out of college.
Exactly. Most Spurs fans thought that it was a just bad flopping job, no foul.
No foul. Really bad flop by Manu. Should have just tried to make the shot.
I have a question for Boston fans.
When is Boston going to rename the Tunnel - "The Bill Buckner Underpass" ?
Tony Allen did not foul Manu..He was smarter than Manu in this play yesterday..
What bothered me was that Manu tried to draw the same foul TWICE instead of trying to take a good shot.
allen played it well, he pushed before manu got the ball, making manu think he was being over aggressive, then when he went up he just backed off. however, he was moving and he did hit manu with his left hand as he was going up. i'm fine with the no call, next time manu has to prepare for that.
Says the man whose team leads the league in techs.
lame...100% flop
The second time, he did get smothered and there was contact, I think that's where the article refers to him being hacked.
The first time, Tony Allen played smarter and Manu got used to duping dumber players in to getting up in the air. Hopefully Manu learns next time there's a similar situation to just shoot the thing to complete the play, and forget about the fouls.
I'm sure there is a GIF of the other shot too, right?
Spurs complain about the calls?
or the Spurs' fans complain about the calls?
Big difference. Spurs never complain to the media.
Orly?
“What they did in Memphis is beyond comprehension,” Popovich told SI.com. “There should be a trade committee that can scratch all trades that make no sense. I just wish I had been on a trade committee that oversees NBA trades. I would have voted no to the L.A. trade.”
sunlakercelticfan doesn't understand the difference between a foul call and a trade.
Dumbass.
Your lack of sense frightens and confuses me.
Spurs never complain to the media.
