Cubans pockets are depp enough that he doesn't really care. If he entertains the fans, I think it's worth it to him. Not quite as tasteless as the "Slums of Detroit" montage that Sacramento played earlier this season though...
I don't think it will happen but very interesting

High price of entertainment
The Mavericks showed a video in the first half of Saturday's game called the Manu Flop.
The clip, set to the tune of Monster Mash, showed Spurs guard Manu Ginobili in various stages of flopping with the incredulous response of the Mavericks and others. The crowd roared its approval.
The NBA office won't find it as amusing.
The clip is sure to draw a fine from the league, because it focuses on an opposing player and how he performs on the court. It won't be the first time the club is fined for a humorous video in the playoffs. Remember the clip two years ago with then-Sacramento guard Doug Christie in a dog collar being led around by his wife?

Time for David Stern to get some revenge by letting Dan Crawford, Donovan McNabb and Sean Elliott ref game 4.
I wish our front office would be brave enough to give up their class and go target an opposing player, for a cheap laugh
Speaking of which,
whatever became of that proposed Doug & Jackie Christie reality show?
I hope the Spurs faithful don't get mad at me.
Sadly, I am the photographer for the avatar of Son Of Mavs Man.
Dan Crawford refed today
unfortunatly
He did game 1 so we prob won't see him again
i agree with the mavs that he does tend to flop alot, but i think they should get fined
That is bull man, spurs class is screwing them more and more lately.
Not surprising, considering who's in charge up there.
???Donovan McNabb
Donovan McNabb would call the game straight and T up anyone who talks back.....Donovan McNabb don't stand for Jibba Jabba
yeah ask T.O.
If they have enough pictures of Manu doing flops, he is probably really guilty of it! Maybe it was classless to show there, but maybe it is time for Manu to stop doing it too. Not only are the Mavs onto it, so are lots of other teams!
it may have been tasteless but a clip of manu flopping is hardly surprising.
Definitely agreed. Maybe (ha)no secret anymore will put a damper on it?
yes, you clearly got the point
Ben Wallace...
Er I meant to say..anyone got the clips of Ben Wallace flopping on AI and Parker last year?
I mean if being a classless whiner is enough to sway the bimbo sect...we might as well take a page from Cuban's book ourselves.
Doubtful. There will need to be a rule change. Probably something similar to soccer, where "embellishment" is punished with a caution (yellow card). Maybe the NBA could assess a foul or even a T. These refs are having a hard enough time calling normal fouls, there need to be some consequences for these floppers so they straighten up.
I didn't get to attend the game where they showed the video...too bad. Maybe it was more of a tribute to Vlade, the father of modern flopping. Then it showed the passing of the torch to Manu, who has taken it to new levels. It could have ended with the rest of the league (Dirk included) starting to flop after noticing how the horrible refs still have not caught on. It's to the point where 7', 280-lb centers are flopping when a PG touches them during a drive...yuck.
Which reminds me...Pop should tell Manu to give Oberto (is that his name? or is that beef jerky? whatever) some lessons though. When Jet Terry barely touched him with his arm in Game 3, he kind of wobbled for an uncomfortable second, looked at the ref, then decided to fall...almost too late to get the call. More practice and pointers from Manu would clean that right up.
I'd like to see that picture. No bimbo sect around here, though.
Pictures...and all you had to do was be a Piston Fan last year to see them.
Ben Wallace flops when the air conditioning comes on are you kidding me.
Same with Lindsey ing Hunter.
