    I agree that Nash gets favorable coverage, I just don't think its necessarily because of race.

    I guess this is where I differ from most then, if it was me at 2am at an ATM, I would have been a little nervous but not because those guys were black, I would be su ious of anyone behind me at 2a at an ATM.

    just as likely, he picked it up from his teammate Mr. Bell. it was hysterical last year watching fans/players of a team that have Raja have the audacity to call another team/player dirty.
    Forget Bell, now Nash Vader is on the map

    I'm not denying , but I'm not the one who's been throwing temper tantrums all over the web calling for asteriks and , and making accusations of dirty play. If I recall, those were Suns fans... yes, I remember now.

    I just find it hilarious that your only excuse for having lost last season just evaporated. Your little Suns don't seem to have a problem playing dirty now do they? and not only that, but your MAIN STAR!

    Point is, from now on, when we slap your sorry ass come playoff time, you won't be able to pull out the dirty card anymore. That just made my season
    I think you have me confused with some Suns trolls that had lame excuses for why we lost to the Spurs last year. Glad that made your season.

    I would be su ious of anybody as well, but I have to admit, someone that looks like me and dresses like me would've resulted in less su ion than black guys wearing FUBU. Of course, the prudent thing to do is to treat EVERYBODY with equal su ion in that scenario. Appearances are often deceiving.

    Oh, I doubt that he picked it up from Bell because Bell isn't quite in the same league that Bowen is on plays like that.

    True but Bowen can still aspire to Bell's league.

    I don't think Nash is quite in the same league as Bowen, but if he gets to that level I will agree.

    I think Bowen is way past Bell in that area.

    That was weak. It wasnt excessively dirty or anything. He clearly, clearly intentionally tripped him. But lets put that in perspective. He tripped him.

    He didnt undercut him going to the basket, he didnt push him in the back as he went up for a shot...he stuck his foot between his legs as he was driving to the net.

    Worst thing that happens in that situation 99% of the time, guy goes down and skins his knee real hard on the dry floor. Worst case scenario, what happened in this case.

    I think its a weak argument. Back in the day, saplings didnt roam in the forest because they'd get smacked down driving DWade style. Nash gets beat, and what would be called a "good penalty" in hockey, takes his man down from the open scoring chance.

    Whatever. Until Nash Kung-Fu's someone in the face at the 3 point line, its all team bias for 3 pages.

    Not you particularly. Is that play even suspendable? No way, IMO.

    If anything this play reminds me of its when Bowen got Amare in the achilles.

    Neither deserved a suspension and neither got one.

    However, this is a pretty uncommon play for Nash.....it was an obvious accident.

    These "accidents" keep happening to Bruce Bowen.

    What play are you looking at? Felton wasn't in mid air. Nash got him with his heel and was looking at his face when their feet met. Nash swung around to follow Felton but Felton stopped cuz Marion was there with help.

    It was obviously accident. I think Spurs fans are just sick of the reminders of how dirty their team is.

    As I said in my first post, maybe Nash learned something from Bowen in the playoffs. It is not like I approve of it by anyone. Also, Bowen has had quite a few malicious moves as you put it, in his career. Actually if you look at the clip from the playoffs concerning Amare and Bowen, you will see Bowen looking down at Amares ankle and kicking at it. I don't approve of any dirty plays including Jason Terry's punch at Finely's balls.
    Mommy, he did it first!

    That was not "mid-air", so what you say is already suspect. But I would agree, if this happened in "mid-air" then it would be suspendable.

    But since both feet were on the ground, the "mid-air" thing is mute.

    And there wasnt a "kick". He stuck his foot between another's two moving legs. Remember junior high? Walk up behind your friend as he is walking, and kick his back foot into his planted foot? Tripity-trip-trip.

    Thats what this was. Dude got injured. Freak thing really. 2 shot foul, no suspension.

    Agreed. Texas bias against the Suns is laughable.....

    Its just jealousy.

    Like I said in my first post on this subject, he learned from a pro these past playoffs! I don't approve, but I guess he probably thought he would try out some of the tactics that Bowen uses.
    Who was injured by Bowen in during the playoffs?

    did you even watch the ing video? Felton was elevating for a jumper, and Nash didn't get his foot between anything, he swung his leg across the front of Felton's leg and his foot caught him right in the ankle.
