    I've been busy as but just remembered I heard something about this on the radio today.

    What happened? Is there a video online where I can check it out? I know it was on Ray Allen, but all I heard was a snip on 760 about "still waiting to hear word on whether Bowen will be suspended for kicking Ray Allen".

    Allen jumped into Bowen trying to draw a foul - fell onto Bruce's leg, and Bruce kicked him in the back. Allen snapped, went after Bruce, and they were held apart.

    Truthfully, Bruce should be suspended for a game for it.

    Bruce pushed him in the back with his foot. It wasn't much of a kick; I doubt Allen could have possibly got hurt from it. If he had pushed him with the same force with his hand, no one would even be talking about it.

    I think he'll get fined but not suspended, but who knows.

    It should be a tech on ray for jumping into someone like that. He coulda injured Bowen. Ray had no chance of making that shot the way he jumped sideways like that.

    Bowen admitted it was a mistake, it wasn't calculated, and he was sorry for it. He should apologize to Allen, but even if he already has apologized, we'll probably never hear about it.

    I think he is going to be suspended, although I don't think he should be. I love Bruce but he ed up. Even if there wasn't much behind it, it still looks like a kick. Of course, if he is not suspended...the "league favors the Spurs" conspiracy nuts will have a field day!

    It was a bad move by Bruce. Although I wouldn't mind seeing a reverse angle replay. I've seen footage of Bruce booting that bag several times, but ESPN, in the interest of fairness, only showed the collision once and it was from an angle where Bruce's body covered most of the contact. It looked like Ray might have put an elbow into Bruce's jaw, though that could just be my imagination.

    Can I be simultaneously disapointed that Bruce did that, while happy that he did it to Ray Allen?

    I made a copy of the kick "incident" on my camera and have a mov file but but I doubt that I can attach. This is my first post as I'm new here and have only been a lurker. I think that Bruce was honest and mature to acknowledge that he should not have kicked out. On the other hand, Ray Allen cried like the spoiled child that he is. It did look like Bruce was pushing Ray off of his foot and he was saying "get off of me". Both guys were being very physical and if Bowen gets supended then so should Allen as he instigated the whole episode; and Allen had to be restained after the kick/push off. So Allen pushes Bruce down (falling along with him), Bruce kicks or pushes Allen with his foot, and Allen tries to attack Bruce.

    Bruce has been putting up w/ ray allen's pussy ass for years.
    as great a guy as he is it had to come to a point somehow.
    If it was me I would've allready slapped him in last seasons playoffs.

    I'm with SFIE - I'm slighty dissappointed yet glad at the same time.

    Pretty sure it will be brought up a million more times in the already hostile "Is Bruce dirty?" fight.

    Even if not calculated or premeditated, there are definitely better ways to handle getting Ray Allen off of your foot then using your free foot to shove him off. Pulling hard on the foot that is under Ray Allen. Leaning forward and shoving him with with his hands. Screaming at him to get off his foot. I think using the free foot and in essence kicking at a man's back is an inappropriate way to get him off his foot. The argument that Bruce Bowen has been putting up with Ray Allen's pussy ass for a long time carries no merit to me. If someone kicked Manu Ginobili in the back while he was on the floor, there would be absolutely no validation or justification for it in the eyes of Spurs fans, no matter how justifiable. The fact that Bruce Bowen has had a reputation for dirty play, especially claimed by Ray Allen, does not help Bowen's case. I think it was wrong. I think Bruce Bowen should be fined. I think it was an inappropriate and suspendable action.

    And, even as a Pistons fan, I am a Bruce Bowen fan. I love what he does on the court. In this specific instance, he was completely in the wrong.
