So you gonna go up to Dirk or not....figured you wouldn't with a tough name like sendman...
Any non homer who has ever played basketball knows that it was not intentional...he was trying make a hard foul across his arms....Dirk was flying back in the air...first contact was made with the upper shoulder (look at the replay) and then momemtum of both players resulted in the push down.
Get over it losers....but since the league is pretty much a dumbass like most of you dont be surprised if Dirk gets suspended
i don't think there should be a suspension but that was more than just a "good hard foul". i know dirk wasn't trying to hurt him but when you are that out of control and flailing your arms around someone's head and neck then that's where good hard foul goes out the window.

Get over what, you big, bad, tough talking, pink elephant posting winner?Get over it losers....but since the league is pretty much a dumbass like most of you dont be surprised if Dirk gets suspended
What exactly did you win recently, or your team for that matter?
Calm down dude, it's a game of basketball.
P.S. I still hope somebody knocks the out of that pansy Jerk Nowitzky

Trying to hurt him falls well within the category of "good hard foul."
I'd be surprised if Dirk doesn't get suspended at least one game, given the precedent we've seen set by the league over the past couple of years. That was a dirty play, and as much as I hate the Jazz, stuff like that can't be allowed to go unpunished.
WTF? Dirk didn't shoot free throws on that play?
For a team that still employs Bruce Bowen and Robert Horry, the Spurs fans should be the last ones saying anything about this.
Having said that, it was not a good foul. Dirk clearely had no idea what he was grabbing, he was falling himself, but it turned out to be really nasty. If the league does suspend him for one game, I would completely understand. I just hope it's not against the Rockets.
I don't think Dirk was trying to injure Kirilenko.
Saying that, it's dangerous to use your arm like an hatchet. You must have a better body control.
suspension is most likely.
This sounds better.

Agreed. At least a few people have some brains here. He never had any injury intent, and it wasn't even as bad as it looked (I think AK47 was faking the injury somewhat) but he needs to be a little more careful on fouls like that.
Priceless. If Bowen had done this to Dirk, Mavs fans would be flooding the boards talking about the dirtiest play of the season and screaming that he almost sidelined Dirk for the whole year.
didnt look intentional at all to me. , I know when Im falling Im trying to grab onto anything I can (I dont fall often). Its just a normal reaction.
that being said I bet there is still going to be some type of fine or a game suspension.
above the shoulders = suspension, no? didn't look intentional but i was under the impression above the shoulders was automatic.
I thought he should have been ejected from the game.
Barring that, he should have to pay a fine or receive a one game suspension.
I do not think it was intentional, but it was very dangerous. He needs to watch what he's doing and have better body control.
You're an idiot if you think he was faking it. Lets see...AK missed the entire game after the fall because he was faking it. He was sent to the hospital for x-rays because he was faking it. He'll probably miss the game tomorrow because he was faking it. Yep, that sounds right.
Dumbass.
Stop acting like Suns fans Spurs fan. that was a good clean hard foul.
and I've seen AK faking and flopping for years now. I would not be surprised if he was faking it.
Some might. Not me. I'll be the first to admit that Dirk is a mad flopper, and will overexaggerate his injuries. Then again, so does half the league, including Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker.

IMO, foreign players in general fake and overexaggerate their injuries a lot, and i bet are willing to fake it by missing a game just to make it look legit, and to make themselves look tougher.
Carmelo didn't get a suspension for intentionally grabbing Vujacic by the neck. I don't see how this is anywhere close to being as bad as that.
It just looks bad because it's two flailing, flopping Euros trying to outflop each other on the same play. Dirk didn't hit him hard enough to hurt him, it was AK47 responding like he just got hit with a mortar s that caused it to look so bad.

yeah and american players are undisciplined and selfish so it evens out.
Not my fault that I have reason to belive that an oversensitive, flopping, crybaby would overexaggerate an injury to make it look legit. He better have ing broke something, otherwise hes a weak . You think someone like Kobe or Nash or even half of his own teammates like Deron Williams or Carlos Boozer would have missed a big game like that over a little collision and fall? Those guys wont miss , unless something is ing broken. Even Dirk, who plays on two weak ankles on a nightly basis, virtually will never sit a game out or miss a game unless something is torn, broken, or seriously injured. Tim Duncan ing played through PF.
AK-47. He's a . Never liked that dude, and never will, especially after his ing crybaby nonsense during the ING PLAYOFFS. If he is willing to distract a teams focus by crying and ing during the playoffs, im more than positive he is willing to miss a game just to make people think that he was legitamately hurt, when in fact he was way overdramatic.
what does that have to do with anything? you think im biased against foreign players or something?
No Dirk on Thursday would be exceptionally good luck for the Rockets and fair too.
Rockets without Yao
Mavs without Dirk
Perfect
for once we actually agree on something though. cheers.
