    I want to see him cut down on the flopping as well. However to be fair, Millsap flopped a hell of lot more on the offensive foul call. He got what he deserved. As I recall he fell to the floor trying to get 3 free throws when he was not touched.

    That's a load of crap. Millsaps was fouled on that play and should have been shooting free throws. Nurkic literally ran him over.

    That is good they had that kind of effort....and very disappointing they didn't in the two games prior. So it's not that they can't, just that they don't on a consistent basis. Quite frustrating.

    I only remember him being scored on twice the entire game. Whether he was on Jokic, Millsap or switched out on a guard, his defense was very good. I do wish he would look to score more but that's just not the Blazer game plan. He is always the 5th option and you can see it almost drilled into his head, "Get the ball back to Dame or CJ."

    Maybe Nurk back is bother him that make is movement difficult and but if that true then maybe not good idea in flopping in the games.

    I think you are wrong on this. I am looking at it right now for the 20th time (at the 7:36 mark in the 4th) Nurk did not run him over as he is to the side of Milsap. Milsap shoots the ball and slightly turns to his left trying to draw contact......then falls to the floor. Neither he nor Nurk were hit hard enough compared to their reactions. Both flopped, but only one hit the floor.

    I love Nurk flopping, I need more of that... its frustrating when your opponents do it, but its fun when your player does that shit... and hes doing it soooo good... Ill support anything but kicking people in the head, nuts, etc

    I support flopping, same as trash talk, it makes NBA more entertaining

    Trash talk does make it entertaining.

    Flopping can get the fuck out. Win with integrity.

    I thought the league pass a rule about flopping. They have fine players about flopping in recent years. But the referees have to be better job knowing if it a flop or not. They also, who is the worst defender to do this so they can watch more closing about them that flop the most.

    if you ask me, theres difference between flopping and selling the contact, and Nurk does the latter one
    theres always a contact, he just sells it so well, which gets him the calls

    Im yet to see real flops like this, thats just a few, but enough to make a point:
