DeMarcus Cousins, Kenneth Faried and Rudy Gay Combine for Elusive Triple Flop
Like a triad of world-class synchronized swimmers, three professional basketball players came together Monday night and elevated the act of falling to an art form.
The beautiful moment occurred on the floor of the Pepsi Center as the Sacramento Kings took on the Denver Nuggets. Caught in a three-way battle for position, DeMarcus Cousins, Rudy Gay and Kenneth Faried joined together and blossomed like a flower, falling away from each other simultaneously for a flawless triple flop.
Vine user GamePhreak845 posted video of the moment.

All that’s missing here is a “Waltz of the Flowers” soundtrack.
Rare are the times when the act of manufacturing a foul can be called “beautiful,” but the triple-tandem fall is one such occasion where the descriptor fits. This is a monument to human expression—a gross, physical salute to man’s willingness to win at all costs. We may never see its like again.
As for the game (it continued after this moment, for some reason), the Kings pulled out a 110-105 victory over Denver. It’s probably not a stretch of the imagination to believe the karmic power of Sacramento’s dual floppers helped put them over the top.
Pay those league fines with pride, you three. It’s a shallow cost for innovation.
