Like I said kids, come with a valid argument or pack that up as a loss and keep it moving.
And he fouls out of every game too.

So what if Bruce is suspended ?that should make the series interesting![]()
And maybe it's time to put Manu in the starting line-up ; could be good for him
So, using this analogy:
John Stockton is not a dirty player because he was never suspended by the league for his actions or never thrown out of a game. Never mind he was voted one of the dirtiest players in the NBA yr after yr after yr. Do I have it right?
Stockton and Bowen are very similar players. They both do the sleazy, slimy things which are harder to notice. If not for youtube, no one would ever have known about Bowen's leg sweep to Amare. Stuff like that is always going to be harder to punish because the people doing it are smart and try to make things look in the flow of the game. But when they happen a million times, you start to figure out that it's a concerted effort.
what does the speed of the game have to do with kicking your feet under jump shooters....?
your boy bowen seems to be the only one that happens to contest jump shots like that but yet you blame it on "the speed of the game"
I would like to make it clear that I don't think the Spurs are a dirty team, but Bruce Bowen is the dirtiest player in the league.
agreed, and like i said earlier i wouldnt have really thought one way or another on either of those plays, but since bowen obviously has such a past history...it makes you wonder.
Gee, wouldn't have anything to do with the pathetic bleating content of your posts, now would it?
Are you sure you played basketball back in High school and College? You know the difference between CHESS and Basketball right?
When happens to the Spurs, we don't sit and cry calling other players "dirty "... We just go out and beat them... plain and simple
What it means is this is very subjective. It is not a matter of fact that he is a dirty player when the league never sees fit to suspend him or even fine him. IMO there is something to be said for this ERA we are in now in basketball. Offense is what sells tickets and the NBA has done everything they can to alter the rules to promote that aspect of the game. Guys like Bowen who are tough and physical would blend in more 10 years ago. Now though when almost nobody in the NBA even plays D anymore it has become so easy for players to cry that a player like Bruce is dirty rather than admit he is a great defensive player.
What good will it do ..... you just avoid the answer cause you have proven time and time again you are nothing but a jealous .
I can handle the handchecking, holding, and grabbing that Bowen does. I agree that stuff was more common 10 yrs ago when the league was more physical. Stuff like that is illegal per today's rules and a foul everytime, but hey if the league is going to let you establish a rep and play like that, why the not. That's not dirty basketball at all. That's just playing smart.
However, the undercutting of jumpshooters is something I haven't seen from any other player in 30 yrs of watching ball other than Bowen. The Amare legkick was just a de able, dirty play and clearly intentional.
The utter irony of the Spurs fan base' defense of Bowen's knee in the crotch to Nash
is that he was "defending his personal space".
Ok, fine. But then when a jumpshooter attempts a shot that Bowen is contesting, is not his personal space to be able to land in the Exact spot from which he jumped without having to land on Bowen's foot?
That's pure hypocrisy to say Bowen is not invading a shooter's space by doing that, not to mention what a dangerous, dirty play it is. And it happens WAY too often to be labeled an accident every time.
And again, there have been several great defenders in this league's history who frustrated the out of opponents without EVER being labeled dirty. David Robinson, MJ, Hakeem, and Scottie Pippen just to name a few.
So when the league finds this as being no big deal ..... will you and the rest of the crybaby crew drop it?
Did not think so .....

Mmmmmmm ..... Crybaby Tears taste so Yummy!!!
same old tired act kid........ when you can form a sentence without the word jealous in it, holla at me........
i know no matter what level ive played at i dont kick my legs out underneath a shooter. thats such a sorry ass excuse......
Thats right ..... run away again boy.
Yeah who all played in an ERA where physical tough play was more common. When they played ing about this was frowned upon in the locker room. Nowadays calling a player dirty is easier than admittiing he is shutting you down.
I can't believe you are amused. Add "dirty" to your list...
I would have aging players on my team anytime as long as they bring me into the playoffs year in and year out.
I should be jealous if I were you. It is not a laughing matter.
I will say it again before I head off to bed .....
Bottom line is that all the Sun fans can do is make up false claims of our team being dirty .....
Basically the Sun fans are making a preemptive excuse for why their team is gonna lose this series ....
Thats prob why you never made it above JV.i know no matter what level ive played at i dont kick my legs out underneath a shooter. thats such a sorry ass excuse......
the videos are right there for you to see, we cant help it if youre too big of a dbag to look at something objectively
It is like they are desperate for help from the league. I go back to something POP said to the Spurs on the 2003 finals DVD when they were playing like against the Nets in NJ. "Why do you think someone is going to give you a championship, come on if you want the ing go take it".
another original response.... so again, now youre saying the reason i didnt make it to the next level is because i dont kick my feet under jump shooters?
