Another fucking PHX turnover!

 

[Baked]

And to think, they voted this guy as back to back MVP. WTF were they thinking? Nash is giving the game away by making TO after TO. More TO. Suns are done. Bring on Spurs Vs. Hornets.

:roll:

where's the foul?

 

[Baked]

When you play like shit, you don't get fouls.

I love it when there's 30 seconds left. That usually amounts to about 5 minutes with timeouts, fouls, and commercials.

 

[BZeto]

Nash is pretty pro tonight.

you shouldn't get fouls. it's a foul or not a foul, it's not a foul simply because you made a couple of baskets in a row. don't be stupid.

good series spurs, wish it could've been the wcf.

Phoenix could've had this game, but they let it slip away thanks largely in part to Steve Nash.

17 missed free throws in a playoff game, tying the record.

yep, pretty fucking disappointing. if only he was 6'7" with a 40" vert. what an unstoppable player he would be. suns are going to have an interesting off season. hope the team looks similar next year.

Don't worry, the lakers will beat you in the conference finals

D'Antoni could be gone

Really sad, but the fact is defense wins championships

The only way Shaq is getting another ring is if he goes to jareds. The window's beyond closing - its already boarded up and grafitti'd.

Even in 2005 when the Heat won their 1st championship, it wasn't due to Shaq but Wade. However, Shaq does seem like he's rejuvenated his body. Suns just can't beat the Spurs.

yeah its just that simple. The Spurs is a team of champs, you can't walk over them ... their though with a good crowd.

wow.. fantastic spurs/suns series.

it got a little rough late in the game with a lot of contact, but I'm glad the refs let them play and not call a bunch of touch-fouls on one team or the other.

Suns lost this game as much as the Spurs won it. TOs killed them in the 4th.

It's funny that down here in SA we refer to the Lakers as "the evil empire" (or as my darling 5 yr old says "the evil vampires") well apparently in Pheonix, the Spurs have become "the evil empire"

The better team won for sure.

I just hope the Lakers get pwned something fierce, and hopefully not by San Antonio. But if it has to be, just let San Antonio get pwned something fierce by Boston in the Finals.

Boston will need to get by Atlanta first - and then survive either the Pistons or Magic in the ECF.

avery johnson is out in dallas.

he's getting the blame for the kidd trade.

 

[Baked]

Ouch, that's cold blooded man. Any news on Mike D'Antoni getting the boot?

 

[CptObvious]

The Suns could use some structure in their plays. Half the time it looked like they didn't know what they were doing, just relying on individual players to get the job done. The Spurs play much better as a team. I think a Lakers-Spurs matchup would be interesting because of the very structured Lakers offense vs. the very structured Spurs defense.

i'd say it's the combined failures of last year and this year.
