Obviously thekad is not only a flopper, he undoubtedly has lady parts.

The worst play in basketball is trying to intentionally injure another player. Which is what Batum was aiming for. There's no defending it whatsoever. Slice it how you like, the facts remain unscathed.

Okay, how about a flop where you injure another player? What then?
And yes, it's happened.

Please enlighten me on your thoughts of the Spanish national soccer team.

That's a fucking reach if I've ever seen one. There's a minute probability of inury happening when it comes to flopping. What is more likely going to injure a player a) an intentional punch to the nuts or b) flopping? I know what the answer is and you do too.
Look at those upstanding Spanish there, last year in the Final of the European Championship:

They had it coming. They always play like that. French player are just tired of it by now, most people just don't know the history.

I dgaf about soccer. I give a shit about the way the Spanish basketball team has acted over the past years. You guys have a culture of bullshit with Navarro, Rudy and Calderon.
I like the dynamic Marcellus and he have, tbh. But "liberating" him wouldn't be the end of the world.

I see a hard foul and then Rudy raising his arm immediately, meaning that he acknowledges the foul.
You know what I dont see? A fucker with his closed fist chasing down our smallest player whos already playing hurt on a play that doesnt even matter and then hitting him in the nuts.
Also, thats the final you guys got to by throwing a game in the previous phase, right?
Stop saying a violent response is acceptable you fucking douche.

Thank you for this gem. I now know to ignore everything you post from here on out.

... Wilson Chandler was nearly knocked out cold by a Kobe flop. Carmelo gets hit in the nuts and bounces back up.
And there's a slight problem with your logic there: Just because a move is unintentional doesn't take away the injury risk. Amare Stoudemire had to have surgery for a detached retina for an inadvertent eye poke by Boris Diaw. Many NBA players get injured unintentionally.
Heck, Manu Ginobili has injured HIMSELF flopping before! I'll say this AGAIN: I do not exactly condone the move (I'm not chizmiz here)...
but I understand...
Should I care? Call that a gem all you want, when Spain came for a friendly in France in July, we booed them more than ever because of what Rudy had done there in september 2011. Add a collective lifelong achievement in flopping to that.
He GRABS HIS NECK while he's jumping. What the fuck is wrong with you, man.
And yeah, keep acting tough with your insults, you're as much of a man as Calderon and his ugly grin after the refs saved him from Batum.

You've been more than brutal. I'm surprised raging has acted so civil honestly.
He opened with "fuck the french". Look it up.
It's man code to not hit other people in the nuts. I'm not sure what my "crying" had to do anything with my posts.
By the way, America>You. Go cry about that some more.
Yes, please.

There is only one man who can clear up this argument:
But the Spanish part of you is Raging and the French part isn't!
Did I say I give a shit about your biography and do you intend to show your passport or something? Does having spent a good part of my adult life in the US allows me to just say "fuck the US" all I want here and expect Americans not to answer that? Fuck your country back, lecturing about being a classact when your team is more full of floppers than any other in the post-Divac era.

I was watching the French cast and had to switch to Italian because every fucking play that didnt go their way they would say "Cest pas vrai!" ("Its not true!") That part of the French culture that always, always refuses to claim responsibility for anything is so fucking ingrained that even their most basic idioms are tainted by it.
It's always somebody else's fault.
It's always somebody else doing them dirty.

Okay guys calm down, geez.
CAN'T WE ALL JUST ... WATCH TEAM USA BEAT DOWN AUSTRALIA??

Right, that's why Parker claimed responsibilty for their awful fourth quarter and their inability to make a shot, that's why the broadcast immediately said that the Spanish were more realist and experienced (Gérard Holtz said that immediately after the game), etc. Of course you hear dumb patriotism here and then, but you would have even heard them criticize Batum vehemently when it happened.
BTW it's "c'est".
Maybe initially, but not any more.
I'll be happy if its under 20 at half time.

That seems easy to say after one of your best players punches a guy in the nuts because he was sore about losing, then goes off with a reporter.

Intentionally hurting someone by punching their nuts and perhaps maybe possibly accidentally hurting someone while flopping are two far far different things. I hate flopping, but come on son, dude punched his nuts.
