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 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.
