Maybe, but Ginobili is the master of the "overflop", or insanely exaggerated flop.

I think flopping has evolved into 2 categories:
Exaggerating a contact, and Acting.
I think for the most part Manu exaggerates contact, making him difficult to defend. He makes a bump look like something more. But keep in mind he drives the paint and gets beat up, hands swipe his face, Okur takes him down by the head, Carmelo womps on his back, so when he makes the contact known it's very believable.
Others, like Derek Fisher, Vlade, create movements that would otherwise not have happened. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. They are funny to watch since the movement does not correlate with the movement of whoever they're trying to get a foul on. Obviously amateurs in the game of flopping.

Well, my friends, I can give you a long list! First to top it off is the Flopmaster himself, Valde Divac. Then we can go from there and say: Derek Fisher, Raja Bell, Allen Iverson, Kobe Bryant, Rick Fox, and the list goes on! The thing is that they all flop, but the one that gets the blame all the time is the one who is at the top of his game! Don't hate, congratulate! Keep hating, it will get you nowhere! Haha. Enjoy the rest of these playoffs! GO SPURS GO!!!

Vlade Divac. He made the flop a recorded stat. I think he averaged 2.7 per play or something like that. Just kidding, but seriously, he flopped a lot.

In Cleveland we have Anderson Varejao, he's fun to watch and a flopper.
But neither of these guys can hold a candle to Vlade Divacs.
He was a true flop-master

Nope, he is a joke. I hate the Spurs, but I will take my hat off to them. They are freakin' good.
