    Yes, he does flop. Honestly, his defense has been lackluster to me the last 3 or 4 games. He loses guys on the three point line too frequently, and instead of quickly going around screens to stick with his man he'll purposely take the hit and try to draw fouls that way. He has the potential to be a very good defender, and some plays he will make some good plays, but he has to be more solid.

    The effect of Jazz flopping is powerful.

    Since that last game, we are now questioning our own players' tendencies.

    Lowry is a great player. PGs need to do that at times because the refs too often let the other team get away with slapping and putting their hands on them. If they don't sell it a little, not only will the refs miss a lot of calls, the defenders will continue to grab and push on them. Brooks would be served well to pick up on what Lowry does when it comes to this as well as several other things.

    It seems many people here don't really know our new boy Lowry.

    He is one of the best in this business. I think this is one of many reasons why Morey wanted him to be here so badly. :)

    Flop isn't the right word for what he does.

    lowry flops? that's news to me. :cool:

    when yao fouled billups, billups also flopped. but that was a legit foul. in most cases it's the same with lowry.

    exactly; he can make the opponents' team foul count hit 5 more quickly

    you just have to shoot better than 20/35 to capitalize on this...
