Re: Who's The Dirtiest Player Of All Time???
Bird talked trash to other players and made them look foolish but that's not playing dirty that's just being a cocky shithead and having the skill to back it up. I'd say all of these guys stand out as dirtier players than he was:
Bill Laimbeer
Dennis Rodman
Ron Artest
Bruce Bowen
Karl Malone
I even think John Stockton, Kevin McHale and Patrick Ewing were playing dirtier ball than Larry Bird.

He is cus or how he did his dirt. So sneaky and deceitful. Laimbeer would give you a blatant elbow as you were driving down the lane... In plain sight. Bird would elbow you in the nuts as the ball was in the air , as you were looking up for the rebound..

And they were so much more fun to watch. Because you knew Laimbeer was going to get into it with somebody.At the time the Pistons were hated around the league.And thats why they were so loved by their fans.Everyone watched because they knew a fight would break out sooner or later.Todays NBA sucks!!

Laimbeer used to put his feet under players when they shoot a jump shot to make them injury their ankles when they land. He would also throw some cheap subtle elbows and then flop the next time the opposing team has the ball and whine to the refs.
And the whole Bad Boys Pistons team would sometimes hit you after the foul was already called. They pulled you down too.

We will be hearing more of these kinds of comments until the Detroit Pistons either win the National Basketball Association title or are eliminated from the playoffs, because Bill Laimbeer has not cleaned up his act. He will elbow you, then whine that he didn't touch anybody. He will smack your hand after the whistle has blown, he will stick the ball under your chin. "He can be antagonistic," the Knicks' Trent Tucker said last week. "He makes you want to knock his head off."
If the NBA issued an MDP (Most Despised Player) Award, Laimbeer would be working on winning his third straight trophy. The tough thing to figure out is why Laimbeer plays this way.
...
It's not that Laimbeer is the dirtiest guy in the league; there are probably eight to 10 players around the NBA whom a large percentage of players would call dirty or enforcers. Laimbeer, however, is not an enforcer. Maurice Lucas would smack you, raise his hand to acknowledge the foul, then stare you in the eye. That's an enforcer. Laimbeer hacks you, then whines to the official that he didn't do anything. For years, Laimbeer would start something, then step back and let Rick Mahorn finish it. That, players say, is what they can't stand about Laimbeer.

And people wanted to fight Laimbeer a lot. I wonder if he got into more fights than any other player in the 80s? I know Bird, Parish, Pippen, Jordan, and Barkley all tried to fight him.
Not to say that other players aren't dirty. But Laimbeer would make you want to fight him apparently. He would flop, flagrant foul you, then whine that it was a soft foul, then elbow you, then whine again if it's called. You rarely see fights today, but I wonder if Laimbeer was in the league still doing the stuff he did with the Piston days, would players start fighting him?
There are other dirty players like Stockton, K.Malone, Rodman. But there are some lesser known players who are dirty.
