    I have seen Scola do a lot of "ugly" stuff....
    seriously, stop those things except falling in anticipation of a hard hit!

    That's not really a flop. It's more of a flail.

    It's drives me crazy, he tries to get and 1 every time.

    Just put it in the freaking hole!

    It's not even close to a flop.

    Scola just isn't a great actor like Anderson Varejao(sp) hence that's why he doesn't get that much flopping calls..

    thats the funniest attempt to draw a foul of a pump fake I seen. When they didn't take the bait, everything froze and scola is left there thinking ooh shhhhttt on an akward looking position... LOL

    He has been flopping a lot lately, but it's kinda hard for me to hate on the guy. He's probably our most consistent player. I bet Jerry Sloan would love to have him on his team though. :D

    Scola seems to do that when he's having a bad shooting night, like last night. Maybe he's having a bad shooting night because he's trying to do that? It hardly ever works either (I can't remember when it did).

    Pump fake, that's fine, and if he jumps you can lean into him, but Scola's just leaning into the defender whether he jumps or not. Eventually, that guy's just going to flop and Scola will get called for the charge due to the lowered shoulder.

    Safest bet? JUST SHOOT THE BALL
