HOUSTON -- Stu Jackson, the NBA's czar of discipline, said he was investigating Bruce Bowen's foot maneuver that led to Steve Francis' injury Monday. He also said there would not be a suspension, meaning Bowen will be available to play against the Knicks tonight in San Antonio.

Bowen has done the same thing to Vince Carter (twice), Carmelo Anthony, Ray Allen and Vladimir Radmanovic, which is why Jackson is looking into it. But Jackson said he was concerned only that the Spurs forward has a tendency -- not necessarily intentional -- to move his feet under shooters when they jump. If so, Jackson simply wants to help him stop, but there won't be any disciplinary action.

Good, I hope he 'helps him stop' just so everyone will stop calling him dirty. :frown:

I don't get it.What's wrong with making Steve Francis injured??
He just helped the Knicks win a few games.

most of the time this happens because Bowen is jumping toward the player while they are in the air, and when they land; Bowen's foot just happens to be under them. Simple as that
