bowen_lead_2
Bruce Bowen has no recollection of kneeing anyone in the nuts.

Whoever said, “God made dirt and dirt don’t hurt” never got kneed in the balls by Bruce Bowen. The NBA feels considerably cleaner today now that the former San Antonio Spurs guard has retired to spend his days kicking school kids in the shins. Known for his three championships and five-time NBA all-defensive team play cheap shots, Bowen infuriated opponents for the better part of a decade with dirty moves that could have ended careers (and should have ended his). In honor of his retirement, Complex revisits and rates his filthiest plays. Watch ‘em with your Wet Wipes!

Not everyone has been so fortunate. Check out Complex’s assemblage of the NBA’s most awesome, cringe-inducing low blows, and see if you can prevent your balls from retreating into your stomach…
