The damn refs should make it a damn foul. If he's allowed to do it, then why not do it? Blame the incompetent NBA refs. If they start calling more fouls on Bowen, he's gonna do it less and less.
I think it's been confirmed numerous times that Bowen is indeed a dirty player and that sliding foot is definitely not an accident like he claims it to be. He's injured countless players with that and it angers me the league still hasn't "reviewed" it. Yet Kobe, for example, gets suspended for that elbow move. Whether it's accidental or not is irrelevent - players still get hurt.

^LOL a psychopath? Then what's Jeffrey Dahmer? You have no idea what you're talking about. You're hate for Kobe really blocks you're mental functions because if you're implying that Kobe Bryant is dirty compared to Bruce Bowen, there is no room on this website for you. Bruce Bowen is the dirtiest player in the league, hands down. A couple of pops to the face by Kobe don't even come close to making him one of the dirtiest players in the league. Kobe's flops serve no purpose? For years he pulled the same flopping motion and managed to get a foul called on the defender, that right there is a purpose. Secondly, you think Kobe is the only player who flails?
Bruce Bowen isn't dirty, he just bothers these players so much that they get taken out of their comfort zone where they are a star and start to feel frustrated for the first time in years and then they run their mouth about how he's "dirty". They just don't like getting owned like that since no one else in the league comes close to bothering them like that.

No one comes close to bothering players like that, because no player sticks their foot trying to injure someone. Yea there are instances when it happens, but not on daily basis like Bowen.

But Kobe IS dirty compared to Bowen. He elbows constantly. He's just not as smart on the defensive end as Bowen. He'd do what Bowen does on the defensive end if he had the defensive instincts.
Bowen is the dirtiest player in the league. How is Kobe comparable to Bowen?? When's the last time Kobe kicked a player in the back while they were on the ground (Bowen to Ray Allen)? When's the last time he kneed someone in the groin (Nash)? Kobe has hit others before (Mike Miller comes to mind), but most of those were out of frustration and in the heat of the moment. Bowen has done his tricks REPEATEDLY since he joined the Spurs.

Kobe never did any chicken sh!t moves like that, sure he has made hard fouls before but I won't label him as a dirty player at all.
