    "Cheap shot" Karl wins this award easily

    True. "He wouldn't let me score, wah, wah, wah!"

    I'll have to go with the guy who flips off the other team and runs into the stands swinging at innocents as the dirtier one. But that's just me.

    I'd like to nominate Manu Ginobili for this thread. He's Stockton and Malone all rolled up into one -- flopping on every play, and in the process risking bodily injury to opposing players by being semi-out-of-control as he flails his way to the hoop looking for nothing but foul.

    The guy would be such an unbelievable player if he would just PLAY and quit flopping.

    Anyway, in relation to the thread... I vote for Artest for sure.

    I have one question for you: Is it a clean play to stick your foot underneath an opposing player when he's taking a jumpshot, with the hope that he lands on your foot and sprains his ankle?

    Because that's what Bowen does.

    Is it a foul? How do you know that's his intent - can you prove that?

    C'mon Freak. It may not be his intent to hurt the player, but you force a guy to exponentially increase his chance of injury or take a tougher shot. It's just like undercutting a guy. It certainly ain't clean.
