Sucks for the Suns.... Spurs are looking better the more I see them.

I wanted this series to go seven SO bad.. I like both teams so really dont care who won but I just love seeing them play. I honestly thought the Spurs would win but never expected a sweep.

the suns have been given too much credit

they run into a championship caliber team with a lot of experiance like the spurs and they fall apart

Is it me, or is Steve Nash the wierdest dresser in the NBA? He shows up at press conferences with the oddest shirts ever about Rock, Boxing, etc., and tonight he wears a Sean John signed button collar shirt. :confused:

of course, i didnt expect suns to go into the finals if they were to run into the spurs. the suns are still inexperienced team even with their best nba record. but you can't NOT give them credit for one of the best turnaround in NBA history, and that their run-n-gun style DOES work for 90% of the teams out there.

the suns vs pistons would've been great to see, since pistons cant score 100+ every game, but the spurs are not the pistons, the spurs CAN play like Phoenix when the team has almost NO defense.

does that matter when the other 10% are the championship contenders?

everyone thought the Pistons were untouchable at the Palace....guess what..NOPE!

The Heat lost game one because they were off for a week and a half and came out flat. They're cruising now just like they did against New Jersey and the Wizards... The Pistons aren't all that...so what happenened to that so called tough defense?

Heat in 6.

Ehh, it's hard to sweep a team in the playoffs. Nothing for the Suns to lose. Spurs have a clinch on Game 5.

No one watching? 5:34 left in the 4th and the Suns are only down by 5 with the crowd getting back into it. This should be a good finish.
