Devin Harris' flop appreciated, by receiving a 3rd place vote for the DPOY.

thats rediculous. devin harris can be a great defender... but his flops just make him a joke. i understand every1 flops nowadays but devin has it to an extreme.

 

Yessir, its rare to have any players that never flop. Some players just take it to extremes and Harris is one of them.

 

Jirk Nowitski never flops.. he's just weak.

 

somebody actually voted for Yao.

 

once you get past the top 10 -15, I see serious drop off in defense.
