I could only call it a dirty play if I saw into the mind of Jones. I don't think you can assume.

 

[n_huffhines]

In much like every aspect, you're clueless.

Sick burn, brah

Gotta keep it PG considering every infraction I've ever received on this board has come from telling you how stupid you are.

 

[Ned Ray McWorkher]

For the life of me I don't understand how Stephen A or Skip Bayless have any credentials

I listen to them all the time. Start with M&M early, then switch between them and Cowherd. Try to catch Dan Patrick as much as possible too. Never who will be on & what will be said.

Tell the mods that I don't mind. Maybe you shouldn't get so upset about our conversations, though.

Apparently this is the point of of disagreement between you two gentlemen. TBrown can.

I don't blame the ref at all for not calling that a foul in real time but that's absolutely a dirty play. Dahntay jones knew exactly what he was doing and didn't even bother contesting the shot.

He purposefully slid underneath him. Watch the replay.

 

[GahLee]

That's not a dirty play.

 

[TBrown]

Ironic

 

[005]

Gonna be fun to see that not called any all season.

 

[Vols520]

U can't walk under a shooter.

 

[FalcoVol]

U can't walk under Kobe.

Fyp

 

[Vercingetorix]

Look what SI.com has to say about it:

Second, Jones’ defense looks natural, too, as he contests the shot in fairly textbook fashion after initially being back on his heels defending Bryant’s move off the dribble. His momentum carries him toward Bryant, natural considering those circumstances, and his attention is on Kobe’s release and the shot’s arc.

Comparing this to the Jalen Rose play, which was obviously deliberate and dirty, is just stupid.

Cool. Most have been ripping jones all day but let your hate for kobe cloud your judgement.

 

[Vols520]

If that was natural defense Kobe would be injured all the time. It's happened twice.

 

[Vercingetorix]

This was linked elsewhere, but I want to make sure you get to see this chickenshat play too. It must be awesome rooting for this guy.

No logic in this post.

If Kobe doesn't kick his leg out to try and get even more separation it probably doesn't happen in the first place.

Sometimes athletes get hurt in sports. Shocking, I know.

Okay man. Because that's the same as trying to injure somebody

So Kobe kicking his leg out which was more a balance thing forced jones to over step to get under him. Got it.

I see that you too can see into the mind of Dahntay Jones. Arguing with you people is pointless.

I'll keep in mind from now on that every time I see a defender jump towards the shooter on a fadeaway jumper, it's a dirty play and an intent to injure. Glad you Kobe fans could set us straight.

I'm a laker fan. Kobe is a dick but a great player. Jones clearly sticks his foot out on purpose.

 

[Vercingetorix]

Hey look, the very first search result for "NBA fadeaway jumper youtube" hit on Google leads us to the following video, in which Durant hits a jumper and the defender jumps at him, leading his foot to come down vaguely underneath Durant. Had Durant landed on the defender's foot, he probably would have been hurt. Was this a dirty play and an intent to injure too?

An did you even watch the play? He didn't jump at him he stood there and slid his foot under Kobe.

Are you serious? So all the former players saying its dirty are wrong? But you the Internet genius who is prob 150 overweight is correct.

Got it. Go eat a dick

 

[FalcoVol]

It's the hypocrisy. Not yours, not any fan's. But hypocrisy nonetheless.
