A flagrant is based on the intent, not the result of the play. A loud thud doesn't mean anything. It was blatantly obvious that it was not a flagrant foul.

You could clearly see that Garrity pushed him as the two were going for the ball.
I agree that it was not a flagrant, I just thought you were saying that Nenad flopped on that play.
One questionable call on the Nets side was Francis going towards the basket with less than a minute left and Krstic getting called for a foul when he clearly did not touch him. But again, I'm not blaming the refs. Its about 50/50 on whether or not you're going to get calls, and usually law of averages means that a team gets its fair share over the course of a season.
