<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> PHOENIX ? Robert Horry would have preferred to spend Wednesday night on the court at the US Airways Center instead of parked in front of a TV. If it were up to him, Amare Stoudemire and Boris Diaw also would have played. "I'm the type of player, I don't want any excuses," Horry said. "I would go tell the NBA to look at what they did with Stoudemire and downplay it, and let the best team go out there mano a mano." Speaking at the Spurs' morning shootaround, Horry said he didn't intend to hurt Phoenix point guard Steve Nash when he body-checked him into the scorer's table at the end of Game 4. He said he initially wanted to take a charge but thought Nash was moving too fast for him to get in position in time. "So I was like, 'I'm going to just bump him a little bit,'" Horry said. "As you know the great acting skills Steve has when he hit the floor, he flopped and was, 'Oh, I'm dying over here.' "It happens. I had no malicious intent to hurt Steve. I like Steve, and he's a good person. "But sometimes in the playoffs, things get blown out of perspective, and it's really going to be blown out of perspective because the other two players got suspended for a game. If that wouldn't have happened, and if it wasn't Steve Nash, it wouldn't have been as big a deal." </div> Source: MySA
Nash= Drama queen LOL it did lok like he over did it at the end when he put his hands over his head like he was knocked out. THE DUDE IS A FORMER SOCCER PLAYER and im sure he has been hit alot harder than he did there.
oh yea im not denying that the foul was totally uncalled for, but i dont think it was as bad as it looked.
Hard foul. It wasn't dirty, it wasn't cheap. It was a hard foul. Nash exaggerated it. He didn't even try to break his flop.
FYI, there are correct and incorrect ways to fall to the ground. It's important you try to protect yourself when you've been shoved off your feet. This can look like flopping, and maybe even partly was. The initial reaction of being shoved off his feet though, that's legit.
I don't really think it was a flop, Nash had momentum and when he got checked his feet came from under him and he hit the boards.
I dont think Nash was wanted to flop so badly that he threw himself into the boards there's 18 seconds left in the game, you're up and you have posession the game's basically over.
