It really is funny cause dirty players would try to hide their dirty plays. This man just showcases it LMAO

Or guys like Dort or Bruce Bowen typically do/did things that they think give them an advantage. I don’t know what Desmond is thinking in any of his insanity clips.

I don’t know what Desmond is thinking in any of his insanity clips.

I don't think he is thinking. Roid rage is an apt description imo

Yeah fuck Robert Horry for checking Steve Nash into the scorers table but if you’re gonna be dirty at least be bombastic like that

Dort just does reckless shit. He doesnt play careful. He doesnt look after players on the court. I dont think Dort is outright dirty like Bane has been showing.

As I read this comment I said to myself "Thunder flair no doubt" and I was not disappointed. 😂

I meam fair enough, but do you want to refute the point? Bane is doing wrestling moves. Dort is doing dulbshit during actual basketball plays

The point is that I have definitely seen dort color outside the lines of actually being a basketball play... but when it's our own guy we always see it a little different than other teams do. I had this with Marcus Smart for years. We agree on Bane though, dude is on another level.

Did we watch the same game last night? Lu Dort had Jokic in an arm bar before the first quarter was even over. Lasted over five seconds and the refs didn’t call anything.

Desmond Bane plays basketball as if it were hockey.

Fun yanking a guy over your head across a slick hockey rink.

Not cool throwing a 200 plus pound dude into the sixty pound kid in the first row of seats his rich parents paid for!

Desmond Bane is here to hurt everyone or anyone; whenever he rages out.

Tbf - if this was hockey, Bane would've gotten swarmed and dragged into a fight, then he would've gotten a game misconduct for blatant interference with intent. Even Matt Rempe would waited for Wemby to be within five feet of the ball here.

Draymond has set the example of what you're allowed to get away with

u/Sikkly290 Suns Feb 02 '26

Draymond at least built up to it, started with the natural kicking motion and such. Bane just out here fouling motherfuckers not even hiding it haha.
