Did that **** use a Bruce Bowen on Harden?

    I know Grayson Allen was an infamous college player for his unprecedented dirtiness, but I didn't expect it to be this bad. Stepping under Harden's landing foot purposely on his very first play guarding James in the garbage time? I mean at least Bruce Bowen and Zaza did it in meaningful game time, this **** just seems to be obsessed with hurting people. I can't believe Jazz drafted him with their first round pick, although he fits with their culture really well.

    Grayson Allen is dirty. But in the NBA, you won't get away with that ****, unless you're a superstar or Draymond Green.

    He'll either tone down his cheap shots, or be the victim of a few hard screens...if he ever sees the floor.

    I don’t know but I saw a Marty McSorely hockey hip check by Rubio as Harden was driving to the rim.

    It happened. No foul call either.

    I don’t really watch college basketball so I just watched a compilation of his dirty plays on YouTube. Lol. Perfect for the Jazz.

    (Is it just me or does he look a little like Ted Cruz?)

    Why the hell is Harden in the game with 3 mins left and us up by 20 anyway?

    @Os Trigonum, I do believe you have a graphic in your possession for use at times like this.

    The Sloan, Karla and Stockton culture is always alive within the Utah Jazz organization.

    I wouldn’t expect anything less from a worthless p.o.s. like him. Can’t guard him so he tries to hurt him. Weak af

    thats why you dont leave key personnel on the floor after a game has been pretty much decided...
    ...but ive been told injuries in garbage time are highly uncommon... smh...

    So is this guy gonna try to be the next Laimbeer, or is he not that good?

    Honestly, it is strangely comforting to have a really hatable guy on the Jazz again. It seems only right.

    It's actually more subtle than a Zaza or Bowen move. Watch how this little f***er hops twice to crowd Harden's landing space. Ref doesn't call it because they're trained to see the single foot sticking out.

    Because the jazz cut down a 25 point lead to fifteen with him on the bench and Dantoni knew he had to put James back in to close the game unfortunately.
