Now why in the world would I expect anybody from SR to spell Stoudemire correctly?

[atxrocker]

haha- wow you guys are really reaching

[mardigan]

I still think its funny Suns fans say that Bruce purposely stepped on Amare, yet Nash "just got his feet tangled up" with Bruce

Wait just a fucking minute. Don't you dare compare SR to here.

Regardless...a foul was called on the play.

And truthfully, I would have been okay with a no-call.

Feet get tangled, players fall down...it's not necessarily a foul.

[Phenomanul]

People actually think that Nash's nose gash was done on purpose?

:lol You've got to be kidding me!!!! Nash did that to himself.

[Sec24Row7]

I think its funny that the owner of the video bitches about all the suns flops and then shows a bunch of spurs flops as dirty plays..

heh...

I will say though... Raja has gotten away with twice as many flops this series than any other player Spurs or suns...

I think Nash and Oberto are probably tied for #2

[Phenomanul]

So are you saying that Raja is allowed to level people at his whim?

[Extra Stout]

Bruce is a one-of-a-kind with impeccable body control. No part of his extremities go as much as one centimeter away from where he wants them to go.

Nash is just a clumsy white dude.

Nash's drawn charges on Duncan have been rather dangerous. Duncan almost got injured in Game 1, Game 2 and Game 4 from Nash's style of 'defense'.

[Sec24Row7]

Yeah... and if Duncan Pops him in the nose with a knee the next time he will be called dirty...


Nash wouldnt even be in the same ZIP CODE as Karl Malone on those plays...

heh

[Phenomanul]

You won't find many suns fans in here.... they don't like the taste of crow.

Oh I have no problem with the play or the way it was called, just the perception of Nash being a totally "clean" player while Bruce is dirtier than Pigpen

no contact FLOP....at least gino gets hit first then embellishes it

[thispego]

hahahaha, these missed call highlights for both teams cracks me up.

I can understand suns fans making them, because they dont know what real championship basketball looks like. but spurs fans dont need to waste their time on this shit.

Steve Kerr "Nash may have had a toe over the restricted line" :rolleyes

[K-State Spur]

The thing about Bowen is that if you choose to the microscope on almost any NBA player over a long series, you will find some plays that would back-up the preconceived notion that he is dirty.

The media (thanks the Amare) has chosen to put the microscope on Bowen - and Bowen alone - in this series. As a result, a play where he uses his leg to clear space is blown completely out of proportion and called a flagrant foul and used as 'further' evidence that he is dirty.

Meanwhile, if he had a tripping foul like Nash's, a foul where he gets caught in the air and throws a hip check to the head like Amare did to Finley, or one of any 10 plays by Raja Bell, people would be jumping on him even more so than they already have.

[fyatuk]

Nash is closing in on Stockton though. He's got all of Stockton's dirty plays except the sneaky jersey grab.

[SA210]

Someone send this video to the national media, send it to Don Harris, and the rest of the local channels. ABC too.

ROFL... Nash isn't closing in on shit.

John Stockton was HORRIBLY DIRTY and tried to hurt people on PURPOSE.

Nash doesn't do that.

NO ONE IN THIS WHOLE SERIES HAS TRIED TO HURT ANYONE ON PURPOSE!!

:pctoss

[Doug Collins]

I didn't think spurs report was still around. Glad I stopped posting there 3 years ago. Piece of crap site.

I just meant he's learned a lot of Stockton's tricks for drawing fouls and taking people out of the play.

You're right in that he's not nearly as bad as Stockton when it comes to intent though.

[1SUNSFAN]

LOL! Is that the best you Spurs Homers can come up with? Showing a bunch of clips of Oberto, Parker, and Ginobili flopping all over the place? You should send this to Hollywood. They might get a part in an upcoming movie? SPURS FANS ARE WEAK!

ignorance is bliss eh?

[Phenomanul]

It's quite pathetic when Spurs fans try to be as stupid as Suns fans.

It's all in the perception... we don't need to do this to prove the Spurs' innocence... we know what the Spurs are and what they aren't....

We do need to go through this excercise to show that the microscope of 'dirtiness' that has been unduly placed on the Spurs is due mostly to the excessive whining of the Suns players (i.e. Amare after Game 1).

This video simply shows that the Suns are just as 'physical' when it comes to the game of Basketball. Yet somehow they are not given the same label. How can the media and Suns fans continue to turn a blind eye on that discrepancy? How can they accept that hypocritical stance? Where is the journalistic objectivity?

Yeah we get it, the nba-fanbase would prefer to see the Suns' style of basketball prevail over the slow, methodical, defensive-minded, 'begrudgingly boring' style of ball that the Spurs prefer. Their prejudice blinds any semblance of objectivity in this story. That's why they have jumped on the Suns' bandwagon and have dismissed any evidence that happens to hurt their argument that the Spurs are dirty. Apparently the Spurs have always been dirty and gotten away with it. That's news to me. Some objectivity.

Was the Horry foul out of line? Definitely. Was Bowen's kick to Amare intentional? I don't believe it. His knee to Nash? That one I'm inclined to say yes, but he was only clearing space. What? Nash doesn't wear an athletic cup? Was Bowen's action really that forceful as to provoke a fetal position flop? Was Parker's head butt to Nash intentional? No, in fact it was Nash who created that contact. How has Raja managed to escape being singled out as an instigator??? .... Some objectivity.

I wouldn't be as annoyed if the Suns' fanbase at least admitted that playing hard leads to rougher play. If they admitted to that much then they would understand that even the Suns have gotten away with some chippiness of their own. But doing so would then require them to simultaneously admit that their team, from the owner(s) on down to the coaching staff to the players have been nothing but whiners since the start of this series. And since they can't face that reality they would rather continue harping about apparent 'injustices'... Some objectivity.

So while the Suns players are shoving our guys, yanking on their jerseys, tripping them in transition, raking their faces, undercutting them, hip-checking their heads, and pushing them over on screens do our guys complain to the media? No, they understand that this is playoff basketball. Where is all the media outcry over these plays??? Some objectivity.

I need not complain about them... This video tells the Suns fanbase to just shut up. Let the players play.

[ratm1221]

I laughed my ass off when I watched this. Nash tripping Bowen was the best part.

Feet get tangled, players fall down...it's not necessarily a foul.

Well done... more intelligent comments from you... probably since the furor leading up to Game 5 has subsided and most fans are back to speaking clearly. They simply got their feet tangled - I only saw the play twice but didn't really see anything dirty about it.

[RonMexico]

I just meant he's learned a lot of Stockton's tricks for drawing fouls and taking people out of the play.

You're right in that he's not nearly as bad as Stockton when it comes to intent though.

He hasn't learned THAT many tricks, though, because he still shoots a terribly low amount of FTs... he's learned more tricks in drawing offensive fouls, though.

[toosmallshoes]

Raja Bell is a thug and a flopper. If you take all of the things that people around the country say are Manu Ginobili's and Bruce Bowen's worst traits, and put them all in one player, you get Raja Bell.

[Cherry]

Good vids, and stop whinning spurs fans.

say that to Amare:

Is this SR v. ST rivalry kinda like the WCW v. NWO funny business a few years ago? :spin

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Heh, lame video. What a waste of time. It's basketball. You can do this with all Teams and catch things refs didn't call.

Lame Spurs fans trying to prove a whole lot of nothing because they're too sensitive to enjoy being supporters of a team of "baddies." :lol

The only one who could be accused of being a bitch is Raja Bell, and it's obvious he's a hotheaded jackass.
The rest of the offenses are equivalent to jersey grabbing.

[BeerIsGood!]

Spurs Report should change its stripes and become Suns Report. They already have the whining down pat.

BUT HE PLAYED SOCCER AS A KID OR SOMETHING.

"Whinning?" Don't you have schools out there in the desert?
