You guys agree?

That ZaZa hit job cost the Spurs a ring IMO.

Zaza was franchise altering.

Say what you want about Westbrook but at least he had the cojones to get back at Zaza

Spurms did nothing, stupid cucks

This. The Spurs were never the same. ZaZa pushed the first domino over.

He needs a punch in the jejunum.

Yeah, and those aren't the dirtiest plays in NBA history. Malone knocking out Robinson probably should have been on there. Rudy T. getting punched out by Kermit Washington probably would be #1 depending on the definition of a "play".

Yeah, Zaza on Kawhitter was dirty, but nowhere near the top 10 dirty plays in NBA history. Also, I think this guy didn't do that good of a job, going more by notoriety (with some recency bias) than actual dirty. As you say, Malone on Robinson should have made it (and Kermit, but you might call that fight not a play...). There have been a few others.

I also wouldn't have included Bruce; look at it careful and what Wally Sczerbiak does. Bruce bites on the pump fake and jumps in front of where Wally is, to try and block/disrupt the shot... it turns out Wally is pump faking, and fatally, moves his head forward and to the side, into the path of Bowen's foot. I'm pretty sure this was unintentional on Bowen's part, because he lets his knee/ankle loosen enough that Wally doesn't end up unconscious...

Robert Horry’s hip check into Steve Nash cost the Suns a championship.

It was based on basketball plays. Fights after the fact were noted when they occurred.

He was targeting a guy with a known injury to get him out of the picture. And once the deed was done, he hardly played thereafter. Seems pretty damn dirty to me.
