I'm sorry, I don't understand you're point. Do you think Kobe is the only NBA player who's ever gotten away with fouls? I'm sure Bowen has gotten away with fouls and has known it. When you're a good defender like Bowen and like Kobe, you get away with it. Part of the being a good defender.
gettin away with one is understandable it is the two in a row that bugs me at the end of a close game, and I hate to say it but the spurs dont get these kinda overlooks very offten esp in close games... I am vey happy we won and Manu is ok just lookin to the future and playoffs .....
Also if you have been a big spurs fan for a while then there is 2 big unspoken rules
1. gotta hate the Lakers
2. gotta hate the Jazz
Used to hate the Jazz, but I hated Stockton, Malone, and especially Hornacek more than I hated the Jazz, I dont hate them as much anymore. The Lakers my hate was lessening for untill this season, now I am back too hating them, but not even close to my hate for the Mavs
Manu will be fine ... what about his nose?
used to hate the lakers, used to hate the pistons but now,
I hate the mavericks and suns way more!!!!!!!
that floating camera is creating so many perspective around the league, perhaps in LA was different play
What about the Rockets.
Yeah that guy was the worst.... I hated watchin him shoot free throwsespecially Hornacek
The only time I really hated the Rockets was the year David won MVP, then we played the Rockets in the playoffs and Hakkem took a fat ol on Davids trophy and they ed us up en route to the le, other than that not really. Trailblazers though, were hated with a fire that rivals that of Hades
I just hated playin em they owned us so I have to give em more respect than hateWhat about the Rockets
You watched Rocky III?
Just kidding, Kobe pretty close to be a a casual elbowing ... but was great how everybody got the hit ... only those dressed on grey (even that sweet lady) closed their eyes
yea, that thing he did where he wiped his face, and Stockton was the dirtiest little er Ive ever seen play.
I've moved on. Now I hate the Mavs and Suns

^^^ Agreed
yeah hakeem took apart d-rob but the rockets fell off after the championship seasons, and they still havent got past the first round of the playoffs since. Usually the teams I dont like the most r the teams that challenge the spurs for a le run. I hated the old lakers with shaq, then Detroit and now mavericks and suns.
haha! Manu's nose was all red!! All I have to say is, "Not Manu's Face!!!!!" hahaqWith all these hits to the face...
I hope Manu doesn't end up with a big nose or something.
Poor Manu...he really took one for the team. I am afraid if I were the coach I would throw in someone and have him thrash Kobe once...That was just mean.
I used to hate the Jazz and 'Bows Malone, but this new team intruiges me. AK-47 though... what happened to him!?
The Rockets... eh... I was saddened by them, but it's hard to hate someone like Dream. Just one of the greatest players ever. Shaq might be a dominant center, but watching him dunk and use nothing but weight and power on players felt really hollow after being blessed with being able to watch a center like Hakeem, who used skill and grace where Shaq bullied with brute force. He was a class act and never took the low road... he just outplayed everyone on the court.
The Lakers of course, are a different story. May they never win another le.Especially with a player like Kobe.
I never hated Detroit. They play hard basketball with a lot of defense. Though I have officially renamed Rasheed Wallace to "Angry Pants McTechnical".
I don't even hate the Mavs so much, they've got our Little General on the sidelines and Avery is a good guy. I do hate a couple Mavs players.... no sucker-punchers mentioned....
I hate a lot of Suns fans, too. Nash is incredible, but year after year I have to hear about how much the team has changed and that -this- is their year, when in reality their line-up is essentially the same with the same focus. They speak in copious amounts of smack-talk before the team ever performs in the playoffs. Basically any fans who stick their head in the sand and think excellent offense means less of an effort on defense makes me want to hurt things. And no, giving up 120+ points to MEMPHIS means you do NOT know how to play D, regardless of how uptempo your offensive game is. This year, I see a lot of the same. Occassional defense and absolutely no bench depth to speak of. Yet I have to hear how the Suns are revolutionizing basketball, playing without a true elite center, despite the fact that the Bulls did the same 10 years ago and dominated from the guard-SF position.
Hate the Heat. Antione Walker never deserved to have a ring. Actually the whole team was on standby while Wade racked up free throws... most boring Finals in the history of the NBA. I don't want the Mavs to take the rings home, but I certainly don't like seeing a team robbed of a series because Wade has a 2 foot halo around him like he's called for a fair catch on a punt return. It pissed me off more for the league than the Mavs though.
The entire playoffs last year felt so lopsided from one game to the next on officiating. A disgrace and a bad mark for the league. And I'll say that again this year if it's as bad, even if we wind up with the rings.

On the Kobe-punch topic...
I've seen Manu flail quite a few times too. I'm sure he's connected with somebody's face too. That aside, as much as I may dislike Kobe that wasn't...what's the word. Flagrant? He probably meant to clear out Manu so he could get the ball back. But did he mean to bust his face open? I doubt it man.
(Copy / Pasted from another thread. This is a more appropiate place)
I would agree, except if you saw the Spurs / Mavs series you got pretty tired of seeing Dirk go to the line. It's like he had the Halo. So the finals were a nice little taste of there own medicine along with becoming Shaq / Alonzo's es. Ah. Good times.

Yeah, the Spurs-Mavs series was horribly officiated, but I still would like to always see an evenly-called Finals. It's better for the NBA at-large, even if Dallas wins it all.
I did find it amusing that all the Mavs fans who were so quick to about whining Spurs fans suddenly became soooooo much worse. Conspiracy theories were flying, and it was all the officials that gave the Finals to Miami, but they -earned- their way past the Spurs. Yeah, right.
Lay off Kobe. It's not like he is Jason Terry !
I've moved on. Now I hate the Mavs and Suns
The only person I seriously dislike on the Lakers is Kobe.
I'm with you on the Mavs.
I don't hate the Suns. I think Phoenix has assembled a talented squad, made up overall of a good group of guys.
Of course none of that matters when we're playing them.
yeah the Mavs I dislike
The Suns I respect, but love beating.
