Beware of the Manu Flop

10 January 2008 6 Comments

In honor of the Pistons showdown in San Antonio tonight, I thought I should remind you all to keep a close eye on Manu Ginobili’s usual flopping.

As popular as flopping is in soccer down in South America, Ginobili and Varejao have thought it necessary to bring the shameful tradition to basketball, in unforeseen new manners such as this flop against Bonzi Wells:

Now we all know that Manu derives a sick, twisted pleasure from every successful flop he makes.  But watch what happens when Raja Bell turns the tables:

However, as much as the new outrageous yet successful South American flops have brought pain, suffering and anguish to the households of honest basketball fans, we mustn’t overlook the “Worst Flop in the History of Basketball“.

    God damn seeing those videos just piss me off. What has basketball come to. Also Ginobli’s face was priceless when he gets a taste of his own medicine.

    Great videos! It stinks to see how much energy is wasted by players faking fouls. I see it not only in basketball, but hockey too. Get ready for some good acting from baseball players in the upcoming Congressional hearings. They’ll do they’re Bill Clinton flop: “I did not have intraveanous relations with those steroids”!
