Did Bowen kick Amare on the final dunk??


http://dallas-mavs.com/vb/showpost.p...&postcount=118

Quoted from a Mavs board:
Did anyone catch Bruce Bowen kicking amare in the back of the leg when he went up for that final dunk? Oh my, what a dirty play and Bowen should be suspended for a long time for intentionally trying to injure a player during the game (of course he won't). It's unreal how big of a bitch that dude is.

There was another play on which Duncan missed a shot, and while trying to get a rebound, tried to kick somebody (I believe it was Nash)

Yeah both instances occurred.

If anybody recorded the game watch the play in 4th when Nash has Duncan one on one.

Nash hits the 3. But during that exchange KT and Manu were fighting for position and after Nash hits the shot, Manu swings his body and his right arm, almost looking like he was taking a swing KT.

The highlights for that play seem to cut off right before it happens.

I'm trying to figure how to get it from my DVR to my computer.

There goal IS to injure a Sun so they don't have to play against the full force of the Suns.

They will do anything they have to...including intentionally kicking and elbowing.

The Suns need to throw this tape at the NBA League HQ and get some answers.

That was the one I was concerned about. My new TV has a VGA port. I need to get a capture card for my computer now so I can start transferring stuff from my DVR to the internet.

If the Spurs are allowed to continue this disgraceful behavior they WILL seriously injure a Suns player before the series is over. We can only pray it's not Nash or Amare. These guys are dirty, dirty players. How do they get away with this ****?

Bowen is just a dirty player.

Watch the highlights on the ESPN site..
http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=270508021

On the pass to Amare from Nash, 3rd quarter, score 44-54, Bowen tries to step on Amare's foot before he takes off for the dunk, but misses...

Next, in the 4th, on the pass to Amare from Diaw (over the shoulder), Bowen kicks Amare in the achilles tendon - that is why he came down wincing.

I do think the Suns ought to send the tape into the league. But let's be honest - nothing will be done about it. This is how Bowen has played for years - and gets rewarded with 1st team all-defense year after year. I think it is a punk move to go after someone's legs, but in reality, the refs don't see it since they are watching for body and arm contact - so it is a very sly move. No wonder Isiah wanted to pound him earlier in the year.

Thats fine if its on video I dont care if the refs see it, the league can review video and if its blatant something can and would be done about it! Someone needs to get the video to the team or someone to get to the league. Why we have to wait for them to injure someone?

I'll be honest, from watching the Bowen clips it is hard to say if he was going for a cheap shot instead of just making a step towards the guy and then realizing he wasn't going to get there. I'm not ready to say they are trying to hurt people.

That said, the Spurs are one of the more cheap-shot oriented teams.
