Was Jeff ever this anti-"flopping" when the Jazz had Maestro Kirilenko on the team?

Blake Griftin' and CP360 flop more in one game than Kirilenko ever did in his career. The Clippers are disgusting.
And I've always been vehemently anti-flop, on the record. Were you tolerant of flopping before it became your team's primary method of drawing fouls?
Kirilenko, Okur, Harpring, Giricek, Boozer. 4/5 of their starting team. 3/5 of their starting team were all-time flop artists.
He's on a roster, but thankfully he rarely plays.
wtf. Plus you had BoozIR on your team. gurl please.
Deron was really the only one that was a boss on that team. Hes the one that makes them moderately not as bad as the Flippers.

Uhh, Deron is a major foul-baiter.

You can always recruit people from pony-gaf.
Everyone got what they wanted. SportsGAF isn't associated with the hellhole that is OT and its for the better. More threads will be moving into this forum anyway.
Scared off by the possibility of a PonyGAF invasion. It's half the reason I rarely go into the StarCraft thread anymore. Jerks ruin it with those idiotic gifs.

Giri's suicide is imminent.
Nash on The Heat is cheat code status.

Uhh, yeah, he'd listen. Then not.
Too many reasons to list.
But if they got Nash, they chip. Its basically over and done with. And then the LBJ Couldn't do it with out Nash Meme can start.
I hope the league refuses to allow his contract on the basis he's one of the worst human beings ever spawned. Up there with Gadaffi.
Seriously, guy is pure scum.
Nash will make kwame look competent.

Haha, I get that he's an amazing facilitator, but you underestimate the incompetence of the Warden.
He somehow manages to fuck up easy dunks.

i think its partly the fact there's no link to Off-topic community on mobile.
Boris Diaw is a complete fuck up, and Nash earned him a $9 Mil/yr contract.
Tim Thomas even got another contract because of him.
Lol Meltdowns galore. Especially after lakers get blown out coz kobe goes on a vendetta against the beard and dallas do the same to the heat. You know this DIRK is gonna show up..
I bet Mamba, the king and durant have nightmares of that face.
EDIT: And was DIRK the most feared player in the fourth last year since jordan? Hearing the OKC commentators talk about him just gives me chills. LOL. As a laker fan, i felt a little better knowing he smacked all the teams equally.
I don't know if i could root against them at that point. Who would be using who in that situation?
This is truly the darkest timeline.
They're just recreating this moment.
Guys what's the over under on Drummond turning into a big of Bynum's level? I don't remember much about when Bynum was drafted but he's always been a bit of punk as has Drummond. Were people saying similar things about Bynum back when he was drafted?
At the 4 spot and no Robinson I'm tempted for us to take Drummond. A good center by LMA would be great but I also don't want to buy into the hype, and stuff about him (his lack of a motor) really makes me scared.

I really, really hope not. But I mean, can the Heat offer anything other than a vet's min? Don't they have too much salary locked up?

Just imagine! When this thread was first moved they were probably thinking "There's an actual NBA-gaf? What the fuck?"
Dirk's post season run last year was one of the greatest runs in NBA History. I remember when Kobe went for like 10 straight games of 30+ Against the Jazz and the Suns in 2010 but his Finals showing wasn't as good as Dirk's so Dirk takes the cake on that.
I remember Bill Simmons talking about when they did a podcast with Dirk...everyone in the room felt like he basically came on set, sat down, put his dick on the table and was like "I'm an NBA Champion and a Finals MVP...I have nothing left to prove....SWAGGGG"
That's pretty much how Simmons described it, and based on how he played last year, and without the shadow of any one like Jordan that Kobe had to deal with...there's no reason for him to keep chasing. He's not catching Timmy, and he already got more Finals MVP's than Malone, KG, and Barkley.

Nash on the Heat would be fun as hell. But then I would be conflicted. He would look dirty in one of those jerseys.
THIS. Dirk completely dominated last year. It was amazing watching him play, he just wouldn't miss anything.

Fisher can't return until next March, anyway, per league rules.
Two tonight. Dallas/Mia and LAL/OKC
Why the fuck would you want Fisher back. Let his ass retire. And if you get Odom back? Make sure he's not taking anti-depressant pills before you talk to him.
Dirk is one of only three players all-time to have a playoff run of scoring at least 27 ppg, with a true shooting percentage of at least 60%, while winning the NBA championship. And he sustained that over a longer period of games than anyone except Larry Bird.
He'll replace Mike Brown as coach!
