I hate Matt Harpring. The guy is without question the dirtiest player in the league. And on Friday, he was his usual jackass self, boxing out and pushing Dirk Nowitzki well after a made basket. So what did Dirk do? Why, he intentionally smacked Harpring in the face. In other words, Dirk lived the dream.

But the clip also contains bonus footage of Andrei Kirilenko getting back at Dirk.....by flopping like a rag doll to set Dirk off to such a degree that he got a tech for screaming at a ref over the lamest fould call in NBA history. By the way, Kirilenko has a long, long history of flopping like a sissy. Seriously, how do refs call stuff like this? It's faker than a Hollywood actress's chest. God I hate the Jazz.

But as for Dirk, he's been suspended for tonight's game against the Clippers for punching Harpring. And frankly, I'm actually kind of disappointed at him. Clearly the Mavs will win that game without him, so Dirk should have taken at least 4 or 5 more shots at Harpring to get the most out of his one game suspension.

4	I give Dirk credit for not slamming the ball on AK47's head after that flop. Also, Bruce Bowen would like to have a word with you over the title of dirtiest player in the league.

1	(Edited by Heyhey1970) Dirk should bottle this up. He needs to be a touch more physical in the playoffs. Not to the point of being thrown out of a game, but we usually see "fall-away jump shot Dirk" in the playoffs.

1	I love the jazz. harpring is a douche...agreed. but he does exactly what he's supposed to do! stop talking out of your vagina like he is the dirtiest player ever. just call him a douche and leave it at that. Dirk needs to lay off the steroids...his raging is getting out of hand
