He should get fined for discussing private league bussiness.
What a snitch. I agree with Bowen being fined but it's still a punk route for Ray Ray. I can't stand him. Bowen's D on Kobe never bothered me because I know Bowen can't hold Kobe - it was always the shotblocking tandem behind him that bothered him.
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/htm...iglance29.htmlRay Allen took no joy after the NBA issued a $10,000 fine to San Antonio's Bruce Bowen after he kicked the Sonics guard in the back on Sunday.
However, it appears Allen may have helped pursude Stu Jackson, the NBA's vice president of basketball operations, into assessing the fine.
"When we landed in Memphis I called Stu and asked him if he saw the game," Allen said after Tuesday's 98-97 victory against Memphis. "He said he watched it that night, and he didn't think much of it.
"He said I'm going to watch it again. I told him I was just sitting there and he kicked me in the back and something more should have been done than him getting a technical foul. Then he started watching it, and he thought I was on his ankle."
When asked about Bowen's penalty, Allen said: "What he got was about right."
Rashard Lewis, however, said he thought Bowen should have been suspended.
"First off, he should have been kicked out of the game," Lewis said. "That's number one. You don't do something like that and not lose some games."
Jackson befriended Allen years ago, and at times the Sonics guard seeks out advice. They talked after Jackson suspended Allen three games for fighting with Orlando's Kenyon Dooling.
"He said you've got to be able to hold your temper," Allen said. "Sometimes it's hard, he said, but you know how much money you make."

Who's Ray to talk about dirty, sissy basketball and controlling your temper, when look at what happened with him and Dooling a few months ago."When we landed in Memphis I called Stu and asked him if he saw the game," Allen said after Tuesday's 98-97 victory against Memphis. "He said he watched it that night, and he didn't think much of it.
Yeah, wtf? it pisses me off so much when people do that.
Carmelo and his crew need to tell Ray to "Stop Snitchin".
Besides, Ray should be thanking Bruce. Without the kick would anyone outside of Seattle given a damn about a Sonics game?
It's not just that, either, although that is a valid point. Ray Allen gets his little licks and jabs and pushes in every game; and God only knows what's coming out of that mouth of his - it's always running. He's very smart and almost always does it where the referees can't see; when they do see, they don't always do anything about it. I don't even mind him doing it, I'd probably do it too, if I could get away with it. It's that smarmy little -eating smirk he gets on his face after he gets by with something dirty that pisses me off. If Bruce got fined for kicking Ray in that game, Ray should have certainly been chastised for what led up to the kick. But, that ain't gonna happen. Bruce has the right at ude. Water under the bridge. Let it go and move on.Who's Ray to talk about dirty, sissy basketball and controlling your temper, when look at what happened with him and Dooling a few months ago.
Allen is sounding like that Kwame Brown, hinting he would actually get in a physical fight, when he knows damn well Bowen would beat him to a bloddy pulp.
Something Spurs fans should not forget! Seattle comes to town April 11th and I'm sure Bruce has it circled on his calendar. The fans should hold Ray accountable for his whiny actions. The little is gonna get his due!!!!!! Bruce will laugh last!
2Cleva...you know that Kobe himself said that the toughest defender for him is Bruce Bowen right?
Wow... Allen continues his ascent towards NBA's Biggest status.
Ascent?
He hasn't reached that yet??
Who is a bigger bag than him!??!?
at Allen
What a wuss.
Weird how intentionally kicking someone in the back doesn't warrant a suspension by the NBA league office...
ARe you saying that Gilbert Arenas would be able to beat up Kwame Brown?
And yet...at the end of the day, RayRay is going to be sitting on his punk ass watching the playoffs on TV. That is the thought that keeps me going.
most definitely. Kwame is the biggest in #1 draft pick history
I recall him giving Eric Snow that credit, not Bowen but he may have.
Would it have been better if he had dropped a duece instead?Allen dropped a dime
Bowen's a hack.
Allen is a ing pussy everyone knows this. Bruce shouldn't have done that, but Allen cries like a girl about everthing
Everyone knows how Bowen locks people up. He will always be watched more closely. Also I agree with the fine, they have to set a standard. Ray Allen is a cry baby, but he is not going to go away and neither is Bruce. So they both will have to just deal with it.
Yeah because we all know Bruce was trying to bloody Allen up....
They know of the feud between the two.
Bowen apologized. Allen snitched like the baby he is. Stu got Rasheed off the hook when he busted Okur's head no??
i agree it was weak for allen to make that call to stu, but how is that snitching? everyone saw it and it's on tape, and bruce got a tech for it. it's not like he took some candy from a store and only ray allen saw him.
Bowen should have in' better known better.
