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!

typical of the way niggers play ball. if they can't handle a guy, they just try to injure him and get him outta the game. too bad he's walking away with his health and money. somebody shoulda met him after the game and taken out his knees.
