    Looks like he lost balance, and then wanted the refs to save him.

    I know it looks bad, but do people realize that tilting the head back like that in a quick manner is natural human reaction? You're trying to get out of harms way as quickly as possible.

    What about the part where he brings his hands up to his face, falls to the floor, and pretends to be hurt for several seconds, is that a natural reaction?

    Monta actually flops very little, it's one of the reason he shoots such a relatively low number of fts give how much he drives but man that's bad. Then again Chris Paul does that 4 times a week.

    Absolutely not, but the rest of what I said stands true.

    Who cares, worse happens almost every game.. and it really does look like he lost his balance more-so than a flop.

    Exactly. He actually tries to glide around bigs to score rather than just jumping into people for contact. If he was more like Harden and received the same treatment from the refs, he

    I agree. He looks like he lost his balance, fell, and then like every NBA player in the history of the game, looked at the ref for a foul just for the hell of it.

    And it it was at the worst time. Up 6 with the ball...could have cost us the game.

    Monta was great tonight though...

    I think he just lost his balance, then tried to get bailed out. Definitely not flop of the year.
