I mean this in all seriousness.

I think that part of the problem in evaluating fouls on Steve Nash is that he flops at almost everything. I don't blame him, that is how to get calls. But does he make it harder to evaluate fouls on him that may or may not warrent suspensions because he flops all the time?

The hard foul by Horry was just that...a hard hip check into the boards ala Hockey.

The flop came AFTER he hit the board...he hit the board hard,,,but then after the hit...if people notice,,he paused for about a half second,,,and then flailed his arms into the air and landed on his back like a fish just brought out of the water.

Having said that......the worst flopper in the league BY FAR is still Floppu Ginobili. I think by the time he's done he'll have overtaken Floppy Divac as the worst and biggest pussy in the NBA when it comes to integrating Soccer flopping into the league. He's a great talent, but I have zero respect for the pussy way he plays.

Hell...Parker is a Frenchie and even he isn't much of a flopper.
