    Okay I had to post this as its own thread because I was CRACKING up as I read it.

    It's from Rafer's Blog at Rockets.com
    Here's the pertinent bit!

    There is other funny stuff on his Blog.. like Chuck's Michael Jackson shoes :)

    So check it out..

    I just wanted to add this thread to say that everyone knows the Jazz flop.. so why do they get away with it! :)

    Im happy Rafer knows this before the playoffs start. If this is brought to the the attention of his teamates then we can be mentally prepared for their "flopping strategy"

    well schit, man... don't mock'em for it. if it's successful, do the same darn thing. he'll be better at it than those teardrops that he's 3 for 732,429 during the reg season thus far.

    /rafer hate

    at least he'll be better than sedale when we get to the conf finals. :)

    i'm pretty sure all those charges battier takes, will be called flops by everyone else.

    The question is... Did he make that shot? :D

    I like his points about JVG and you can just imagine the hilarity in the locker room about Chuck's shoes :D

    No way. If anything, they could be blocking fouls, but Battier takes a bunch of punishment from those charges.

    You got lucky Rafer. Ain't a damn thing good about Stillwater. Shoulda came to Norman. Btw, I've eaten at that Spaghetti Warehouse in Bricktown a couple times with my fiancee. Good place, but not as good as the Zio's on the other side of the canal (Bricktown is just like San Antonio's riverwalk).

    they'd be wrong. i thought only referees couldn't tell the difference between a flop and a charge.

    That looks like a layup/finger roll. He had a better chance of making that. If his hand was turned over on the opposite side for the floater teardrop shot, then he probably would miss it. Not hating, just stating fact.
