Can anyone tell me how many times he flopped?

I never was too much of a fan of the Nash/Dragic unit but this game definitely won me over on it. JRich only contributing 3 points is hilarious. It was a really impressive win by the Suns despite being down two players (practically three if you count JRich). It really goes to show that Amare is the key to our success. When he plays anywhere near his max potential- it's damn near impossible to stop us.
The more I watch Dragic play the more I think he'll turn into a Ginosebili type of player. Someone who can come off the bench and score in bunches and run the 2nd unit as a point guard. He's big enough to defend most PG's and even some SG's. He's got great court vision and he's a good passer but he just seems so effective as a scoring PG rather than a pure point. He's not as good of a scorer as Manu but he could be a comparable playmaker.

I was going to mention that too, that maybe he isn't really a true PG but more of a scoring combo guard.

Without any special focus on Ginobili I noticed 2 flops which one was called as offensive foul on Nash. It looked like Nash was at least 240 pound beast. Probably there were more flops but there was too much action on the court to just watch Manu all the time if he isn't flopping somewhere.

Is Lou injured? I never caught a status update from when he left the court, and passed out before the game was over

It was mild, so I don't believe it will keep him out of any games, maybe 1. He may not practice the next practice though. He's a tough guy, he'll bounce back!

Great point. I like it when he's on the floor with Nash, and he's playing the 2. He's a good slasher and he's picking up a lot of Nash's moves, like his little duck-in-the-lane-then-fadeaway-for-10 feet shot. He's not as accurate as Nash yet, but he'll get better.

Well he does have that new shooting coach!
Dragic is reminding me alot of a young LB. I just hope LB can find a way to implement his versatility off the bench too.

LB never has and never will play point as well as Dragic now. He doesn't have the court vision or the passing skills to be a good PG. He can handle the ball, but we've tried to turn him into a PG but it has never worked.
Dragic will be a better play maker but probably not as good a scorer as LB.
