<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (hoopskidd5 @ Apr 16 2006, 09:58 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Did you see what he did to Vince? He was going for a fadeaway jumper and he tried to kick out his legs and make him fall to the ground..This happened a couple times, too..As a Nets fan I do get bothered by his deep threes, but the fact is he makes them, and as long as he mixes them up with aggresive drives to the basket it doesnt matter to me. Hes a very relaxed guy who enjoys playing the game and the team in general is playing very loose with nothing to play for..I dont care that he plays this way now because it means nothign, but I dont want him to do it in the playoffs..One thing about that game..Whats with Gerald Green and his headband??</div>bowen was turning around the first time and the floor was slick so his foot slid as vince was coming down, the second time bowen jumped up with him to give him a high five but their legs got tangled and vince caught feelings and acted a fool just like ray ray did when bowen gently pushed ray off his leg with his foot
Bowen is a dirty player so I don't blame Vince for being irritated. Bowen gets away with all kinds of <Censored> but I guess you being a homer wouldn't understand that. If someone was being dirty to Ginobili than you would be upset right?
You guys think I have respect for Vince Carter? I wish we traded his <Censored> to the Bobcats. I bet he would complain about "Injuries" again and be shipped off to another team. The guy has no class whatsoever. When he got tired of our team he just stopped playing. He didn't dunk at all or use his talent for us back in 04. All he did was shoot jumpers. What a dumbass. He was complaining about his injured <Censored> and then magically, when we shipped his sorry <Censored> of to NJ he was all better and his "leg injury" magically healed. What a frickin joke. I lost all respect for the guy a long time ago. He has zero respect for basketball or sportsmanship. I wish someone seriously would beat the <Censored> out of him so he could just go away.

There's been 2 or 3 instances where he's really done something where I said, "All right, that was a dirty move" but other than that he's a lockdown defender who gets no love from fans.

He has a reputation for being a great defender so he gets the superstar treatment on defense. Same with a lot of the stars on offense. Bowen is also very sneaky on how he is dirty. It is not blatant so the refs don't make a big deal about it.

As you get to higher and higher levels the play gets much more physical, if the refs were to call every defensive foul there was, every single player would foul out.

Yeah but it is true he gets away with more fouls than other players because of his reputation. He would be the perfect player for Dallas at shooting guard. If Griffin was a good fit than Bowen would be perfect.

Dirk got owned for 1 and a half games by Bowen but finally showed up in the second half of last game. That is far from owning.
Bowen acts dumbfounded and goes a bit too far seeing his size cassell does some a lot of sneaky <Censored> too but not as bad like slippin ur foot under the shooter coming back down. Carter does deserve respect if u put aside his toronto issues. He is doing a great job for the nets and Whatever the hell he's getting paid he's doing his thing now. That's what matters NOW. Clearly showing that there is at least one good team in that divisionT-mac talked about zone defense and that it effected his scoring..... You don't even say that kinda <Censored> on air if u r welcoming it. You keep it to urself. Every player bitches at or about something. And they do that to benefit themselves. Bowen aint gentle a good defender but not gentle. It was good to see ray light bowen and da spurs up wit 33 points. I find that embarrasing to such a defensive unit.Bowen is a role player not a star. He gets respect in his ROLE of being defensive and shooting open threes even though he takes it a bit FAR-lol sometimes. One more thing he can't hold T-mac Iver Kobe or Carter n some other guards/forwards too without help.Overall besides bowens <Censored> he is a very good defender.. but there is no need to brag about him.Get him off this thread. lol seriously CARTER DESERVES RESPECT NOW! THE NUMBERS AND WINS OF NETS SHOW HIS SUCCESS TO THE TEAM NO MATTER HOW WILD HE PLAYS AT TIMES! THE RESULTS ARE IMPRESSIVE.

I was at the Sixers game tonight and in the beginning when Vince Carter was playing he was just jacking up shots. Some went in, some didn't. It was obvious he was playing for that scoring title thing. Especially when Kidd and Richardson were both out.

Thats the season he bailed on Toronto. Being a Nets fan, I'm guessing you refuse to believe that?Half man, half a season.
