Don’t refer to Varejao as a flopper. He’s starting to take offense to it.

He earned a spot on the All-Defensive second team this week.

“It’s always good when other people recognize what you do,” he said. “When you work hard, it makes you feel really good about yourself.

“I’m not going to block a lot of shots or get a lot of steals, but I always want to be in the right position. I’m really happy to get that.”

And don’t call him a flopper.

“I’m not a flopper,” he said. “It’s a Brazilian samba.”
