Butler fouled, goes to the line for 2
hits both, tied at 17 with 4:57 to go in the first

[circles_eternal]

looks like Quentin Richardson had to sit down with some kind of injury.

[bonesinaz]

I absolutely hate wishing for a laker win (after saying 'wishing for a laker win", I just threw up in my mouth a little), but I want the Suns to lose more.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

[slayermin]

looks like Quentin Richardson had to sit down with some kind of injury.

Yeah, his pride his hurting from last night when he posted that 0fer.

[bonesinaz]

looks like Quentin Richardson had to sit down with some kind of injury.

I just turned on the game, I will let you know as soon as I hear something. Maybe Q hit himself in the head too hard??

[bonesinaz]

Right now the suns homer announcers are making excuses for their offensive-minded play again. They just had Byron Scott on defending their running game. LOL!!!

[circles_eternal]

Maybe Q hit himself in the head too hard??

lol. i hate it when he does that. i hope that's what hurt him.

i think he was grabbing onto his ankle in a collision with Butler. not sure about it, though, because i just tuned in to this laker fest. they've been gushing on and on about that 85 championship team...guess we can't blame them for holding on to their once glorious franchise. the past is all they have now.

[Jimcs50]

Go Suns!

As much as I hate the Lakers, I need them to get a win.

[bonesinaz]

shoogar bear or missmyzte or anyone else who wants to-

Please feel free to do the play by play. My brain is always mush after a 10 hour Monday at work. I am exhausted.

[boutons]

LA is shooting better and killing them on the boards. Keep that up and Spurs go 1/2 game up.

[ducks]

lakers are blowing this
they should be up by 10 at half
amare has played nothing and suns are hanging in there

[bonesinaz]

Suns announcers still very defensive about suns lack of defense.

Sorry, won't be me. I'm hanging out on ClubLakers, gotta watch a Lakers game with Lakers fans. :)

[bonesinaz]

No problem Misti-

[ducks]

Ducks-

you had to ask me so now I can not think of it :lol

[j_epsilon]

Is it just me or do you guys also realize how spoiled the lakers are? (they don't even deserve a capital letter)

I mean you have a team that's run by Chucky fuc*in Atkins?!?! And they are giving the Suns a game? That is ridiculous.

Granted i'm not a fan of the Suns, I don't mind if they lose since it would give the Spurs the #1 seed. But geez, them losing like this is bull. Let me back up my argument, Amare Stoudemire has been forced to the bench with 3 fouls in the 1st quarter, when do you see this against other teams? I mean come on, they were all ridiculous fouls, a "bump" on vlade fuucking divac??? yeah, right. Plus, the NBA cannot afford for the lakers to be chumped by the offensive juggernaut that is the Suns since they have the "laker reunion" going on and not to mention, "basketball expert" Ice Cube (LMAO), fellow laker fan, is watching the game. This is a market game, the Suns should be blowing out this pathetic excuse for a team by like 30 points. As long as the whistles have the Suns playing steven hunter, jake voskhul, joe johnson, marion and nash, it's going to be hard.

BTW, Kobe needs to be biitch-slapped by somebody, step up to the plate Tony Massenburg or Bo Outlaw. Does this guy ever play a game without crying to the refs like a baby?

[bonesinaz]

you had to ask me so now I can not think of it :lol

Don't feel bad, the only thing that makes him memorable is that he sounds like he is stoned all the time- and he has got to be the biggest homer of all time.

[ShoogarBear]

Sorry, bonesinaz. I've just been taking a few glances in. I'm trying to get a report done (so why am I here?) and it's almost midnight on the East Coast.

[Dex]

This might be the best chance for Phoenix to lose. I think there schedual gets even easier after tonight.

If the Spurs want the #1 seed, they have to keep praying for the Lakers to pull there heads out of there collective asses.

Fat chance.

I haven't been able to watch a lot of phoenix games this year but does Stoudemire get into foul trouble often...and when he does, does he begin to lose confidence in his game?

[yavozerb]

He has a lot of stupid fouls. To me it looks like he is trying too hard and just does bone-headed things, ala Malik.

He definately lacks poise when things aren't going his way.

[bonesinaz]

Nash is resting his back and hamstring, laying on the floor. announcers say this is a usual thing, IOW no new injury.

Luke Walton at the line

[bonesinaz]

Nice.

:smokin

Thanks for keeping us informed, bonesinaz.

No problem-
I don't get many spurs games here, so this website is a life saver. I just wanted to return the favor b/c it is so close to the playoffs.

[Spurbanana]

just keep thinking...Suns are losing...not vice versa

[j_epsilon]

Lakers are full of shiit, they shouldn't even be counted the way they get away with murder.

But as much as i passionately hate this disgrace to basketball of a team. Suns gotta lose for our spurs to get #1.

*pulls out hot wax and waxes body as punishment*

[timvp]

I refuse to watch this game because the Suns are like 50-0 when I watch them play.



Not against the Spurs, that is. :smokin

[j_epsilon]

What the hell is a faker/raper fan doing here????

You should be lynched.

[Dex]

Phuckin Suns :(

And epsilon, we welcome all fans to these boards, even Laker fans.

As misguided as they may SEEM to us, every person still has the right to choose his or her team and support it.

As long as they don't pull a LakerGod on us, then people don't seem to mind much.

Since the Lakers are now eliminated from the playoffs and are currently of no threat to us....

Go LA.

We need you to beat Phoenix, dammit.

[T Park]

Epsilon.

Laker fans are cool. Back the fuck off.



Welcome Lakafan, how many pingpong balls they gonna have?

[duncan2k5]

Slightly off-topic....has anyone ever dunked on Shaq??

Derrick Coleman did when he was younger. it was nasty too!

[infinite styles]

He has a lot of stupid fouls. To me it looks like he is trying too hard and just does bone-headed things, ala Malik.

He definately lacks poise when things aren't going his way.

I kinda figured that just by checking out whats going on in this game. Since the playoffs are "supposed" to be officiated differently than the regular season, I'm anxious to see how he does in those games that really matter.

[j_epsilon]

Epsilon.

Laker fans are cool. Back the fuck off.



Welcome Lakafan, how many pingpong balls they gonna have?

Wow.

I seriously hope you are one of a kind man. You are so wrong. So so so wrong. How can you call yourself a spurs fan if you don't realize how full of shit the lakers are?

Believe me when I say that you are in the minority of those that don't like Lakerfans. Not all of their fans are "full of shit", some of them were fans before the Shaq/Kobe era. most of the jerk Laker fans jumped ship to Miami anyway.

[Dex]

Lakers wilting :(

If you are lakers fan through thick and thin, then I can respect that. What I cannot respect is "laker fans" only when they are winning. I used to ask ppl why are you a lakers fan? they answered "because kobe is the best and shaq"...i wanted to cry...pathetic.

I apologize if you are true fan, not one of those pop culture idiots. My bad.

I don't think i'm alone when I say that 80% of laker fans are just fans because they are the "lakers" because they "have kobe and shaq" because they are "always int he playoffs".

[duncan2k5]

LA lose

[Warlord23]

8:21 83-89 Kobe Bryant enters the game for Chucky Atkins.
.

6:35 89-93 Kobe Bryant Personal Foul. His 2nd Personal Foul.

6:09 92-93 Kobe Bryant Bad Pass. Stolen by Shawn Marion.
.
.
4:15 95-93 Kobe Bryant's layup blocked by Jim Jackson.
.
.
3:29 97-95 Kobe Bryant Lost Ball. Stolen by Steve Nash.

To think they had reclaimed the lead before Kobe came in ... Can you spell kryptonite?

[bonesinaz]

lal hard time getting it in

phx jjohnson makes a shot

Respectable, although I hope you realize how spoiled that team is.

[duncan2k5]

so true

[bonesinaz]

A few parting thoughts-

Phoenix is a very emotional team. That works in their favor when things are going their way, but it is also the reason they make dumb mistakes when things aren't going well.

Amare always looks a little out of control to me and I think he gets away with a lot.
LAL left Marion and JJohnson and JJackson open waaayyy too often, hence all the 3's made.

BTW- No Quinton Richardson update on the post game show so far and I am going to bed.
Night all.

That's not me, the Lakers are in my blood. The Lakers are a legacy, I will be there for the rebuilding and I'll be there when we return to glory.

I agree about bandwagoners, this year is good if for nothing else than to get rid of them. Let them all go to Miami, no concerns here.

[nacho estrada]

Thanks Bones.. I appreciate the updates brother .

[Ginofan]

The Lakers were in it till the last 2 minutes...it's heartbreaking to be so close to the #1 seed, but I'm sure this season has been more heartbreaking for Lakerfans. Oh well, Suns still have to face Denver...but even if that doesn't work out I'm sure we can win the championship from any seeding position.

BTW I think Amare did one too many push-ups before the game, he barely made any of his FTs :lol

[SirChaz]

Suns color commentator last night was Eddie Johnson. The Suns TV play-by-play guys are bad but I like the color guys. Both Eddie Johnson and Dan Majerle are funny. The best play-by-play is Al McCoy but he only does radio these days.

Amare is great but he is 22 and still learning and earning respect from the refs. His 3rd and 4th fouls were BS but Amare needs to learn when to be aggressive and when to just hold your ground.

Horrible game by the Suns but they managed to pull out a win.

I hope they start playing better before next week. :|
