Props to the Suns

[Rummpd]

Things went the Suns way but they also hit shot after shot after shot - good luck going fwd.

[Sigz]

Fuck the Suns.

[DMX7]

They deserved it 100%. It wasn't even close. Spurs were completely outclassed nearly every game.

[Budkin]

I gotta give them props... they've suffered at our hands year after year... this time they were the better team.

[Spursmania]

Congrats Suns. Your team deserved to move on.

[QuietDynasty]

They deserved it 100%. It wasn't even close. Spurs were completely outclassed nearly every game.

not outclassed...they just wanted it more....suns and all they represent are far from class....

[hunterxaz]

hahahahahahahaha

[Bukefal]

Im starting to dislike their players but, Congratulations, obviously the better team. :tu

[toki9]

They were the better team. We just weren't meshing--our high turnovers (at this stage of the season?) was just one sign that this team wasn't right. And the inability to hit free throws was just baffling. A good team doesn't beat itself--and we kept doing it.

Congratulations and good luck to the Suns. I'm happy for them in a way. They finally got over the hump.

[duhoh]

good one by phoenix. it's always nice to see a team overcome history, even if it's against the team i'm going for.

:tu

[ShoogarBear]

Spurs had no answers for them. Even when they got up, it seemed like they were just waiting to lose.

[Spurminator]

I'm torn. I love Nash and Hill, but I hate Sarver and Phoenix fans.

Anyone but LA though.

[rasho8]

Well done Suns, you had the better, deeper team and your shots were on fire. Spurs coudltn seem to hit free throws to save their lives and our 3 pt defense was pathetic all series.

Hope you can beat the Lakers, I would like to see a Suns v Magic final.

[miss paxton]

I wish the Spurs had been the better team this series, but they weren't. Congratulations to the Suns and I hope they at least take out the Lakers. I don't particularly care if they make it to the Finals but beating the Lakers would be nice.

[peskypesky]

Props to the Suns. I thought their sun had set a couple of years ago. I was wrong.

[baseline bum]

I don't know if they'll beat LA, but it wouldn't shock me to see them in the Finals. It would be funny as hell to then see them deny Shaq. Congrats to the Suns. They left no doubt that they were the far superior team.

[miss paxton]

I wish the Spurs had been the better team this series, but they weren't. Congratulations to the Suns and I hope they at least take out the Lakers. I don't particularly care if they win it all but beating the Lakers at least would be nice.

[danyel]

It wasn't even close...

I'd rather lose to Steve Kerr, Nash and Los Suns than to the winny little bitch of Cuban.

Good luck in the next round...

[Spurious]

No doubt. We could have pulled out one or two of those games, but didn't. So it goes. Congrats to Phoenix...now kick the Lakers in the head.

[exstatic]

One thing's for sure, they'd BETTER fucking re-sign Channing Frye. He was the can opener that shredded our defense. Without him, it's probably an even series, but his effectiveness made Pop choose his poison: Bombs away from three land or Amare going wild.

[TIMMYD!]

Better team for sure. Props to them.

[Spurs Brazil]

Props to the Suns. They're playing great. I hope they beat LA

[TampaDude]

^ this...all of it :toast

[Danny.Zhu]

Props to Steve. Eventually set up a team to beat us.

[QuietDynasty]

Props to the Suns. I thought their sun had set a couple of years ago. I was wrong.

its about to set....nash is on his last gallons of gas....it's his last hurrah maybe not this year but soon....

[Chomag]

Grats suns, looks like it's now your time to shine finally beating your arch rivals. Take it to LA!!!!

[MannyIsGod]

A damn good team with the potential for greatness. I'll be rooting for them against the Lakers but I am hoping Lebron gets his championship this year.

[m33p0]

:cry

thank you, Tim, for showing class.

[HarlemHeat37]

I'll wait to see how they play vs. LA..I really hope they don't start missing all their open shots vs. LA, it would be upsetting..not that my respect means anything to a bunch of millionaires that don't know me..

[HighLowLobForBig-50]

go suns. my laker hate runs deep.

[EricB]

Big props best team by far and away. Good Luck against the lakers.

[Libri]

The cyclops came up big.

[I <3 SPURS]

Props to the Suns, they did it, outplayed us, made the defensive stop, nobody expected it but the Suns Organization. Congrats on beating the Spurs and good luck against the Lakers, I hope you beat them!

[Stringer_Bell]

We all laughed and made fun of the Suns being lottery bound before the season, but they came out with a "feel good, play good" philosophy and got the job done. They didn't try to step on our team or city's toes, they just made shots and limited their own mistakes to win this series.

Our boys fought hard last series, wish they didn't get swept but the Suns imposed their will and we can only wish them the best and hope WE get a better bench because 6 on 10 is no fun at all. :(

[Manu20]

Beat the Lakers Suns!!!!!!

[Brazil]

congrat Suns and go kick some lakers ass

[ducks]

starver is going to have to pay the tax for him
he is on record he is not willing to do that

[peskypesky]

i'm definitely rooting for the Suns to beat the Lakers. don't think they will because of LA's home-court advantage, but we'll see.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

They have unbelieveable execution. They deserved it.

[alchemist]

Getting a lot of time to rest I really hope they take advantage of it, I really hope this series wasn't some fluke shit where they hit shots not even Michael Jordan would make only to bend over to the Lakers. Good luck the rest of the way Phoenix. :toast

[ducks]

big props

but 4-1 now suns in playoffs

[angelbelow]

GL to the suns. You guys earned the victory this year. Congrats.

[CubanMustGo]

Suns won every fourth quarter and that is a sign of a superior team. Congrats and don't let your season end just because you finally beat the Spurs.

[ShoogarBear]

:lol @ Starver.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Props to the Suns. Please show that same physicality and heart and clutch shooting against the Asterisk Rapist Dynasty.

Please.

If you slay the beast, I will forever have respect for your team.

[GO SPurs Go]

I've been a Spurs fan since I was 11 and I just want to say that I was so proud of how they went down tonight. Whether it was Timmy diving for the loose ball or Tony getting the offensive rebound etc etc they gave it everything they had and went down with the class we all love them for.

I would also like to say that it was an honor to play Phoenix. They're all class acts starting from Kerr to Gentry to Nash and downwards (I dont know anyting about Sarver).

It was a pleasure Phoenix, hope you win it all but plz do us a favor and BEAT LA!

[coyotes_geek]

Congrats Suns. They were undoubtedly the better team. Beat LA.

[TheChillFactor]

One thing's for sure, they'd BETTER fucking re-sign Channing Frye. He was the can opener that shredded our defense. Without him, it's probably an even series, but his effectiveness made Pop choose his poison: Bombs away from three land or Amare going wild.


FUCK THAT hopefully they let him go so we can sign him.

[Spursfanfromafar]

Will root for the Phoenix Suns to beat the Lakers.

The Suns played it fair and brilliant. I don't think they have anyone to take on the three headed monster of Gasol, Odom and Bynum inside, but if they keep pounding the threes in, they have a chance.

It would be a pleasant culmination to see the Suns taking on the Cavs in the Finals. Two cities that have won nothing. And it should be fun as well.

[KaiRMD1]

Gotta give the Suns credit, as much as I hate this team, major props goes to this suns squad who finally got the monkey off their back and beat the Spurs, with Duncan, Ginobili and Parker on the roster. Congrats and good luck against the Lakers (Lakers are sweeping the Jazz, no doubt about it)

[NewJerSpur]

I just can't bring myself to root for the Suns (unless they're playing against Dallas), but I can certainly tip my hat to them. They played some good basketball for 4 quarters of 4 games and staged some good rallies when we started to gain control during the series to keep the Spurs at bay. Good job.

[FromWayDowntown]

As I said the other day, congratulations to all of our die-hard Suns fans in residence. To those of you who were here when the Spurs had the upper hand, this is your moment. Congrats and good luck!

Beat LA!

[Russ]

Congratulations to the Suns. Nobody deserves it more than they do. :toast

[scottspurs]

Congrats to the Suns go get yourself a ring and do it with class. The Suns were the better team.

[CP48107]

I'm torn. I love Nash and Hill, but I hate Sarver and Phoenix fans.

Anyone but LA though.

+1, but I am going to root for LA now

[BillsCarnage]

Things went the Suns way but they also hit shot after shot after shot - good luck going fwd.

Everything that happened in this series was a complete reversal of series' past.

The Suns were able to rally and grind out wins.
The Suns were deeper and players stepped up, as they have since the break.

The Spurs got hammered much as the Suns have in years past.. It's just nice to be on the other side of the outcome finally.

The Spurs need more 3pt shooters and they'll be right back where they are and also a better backup to Parker.

cheers

[wijayas]

Congratulations to the Suns. I hope you guys can take down the Lakers.

I still and will always love my Spurs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ALVAREZ6]

They dominated the Spurs fair and square. I have complete respect for Nash and Grant Hill, those boys deserve a championship. Go suns from here on out, no more rings to further inflate Phil Jackson's douchebaggery.

[myhc]

Congratulations to the Suns! You guys were just unstoppable. I'm disappointed but if there's a guy I didn't mind losing to, it's Steve Nash and Grant Hill, ALL CLASS. Good luck going forward and I'll be rooting hard for you guys when you meet L.A.

[Nobody]

Enjoy Suns fan! It's gotta be the kind of elation we felt when we finally beat the Lakers to go on to a title. Winning that series against the lakers was one my fav all time moments as a Spur Fan. Congrats Suns fan.

[silverblk mystix]

Congrats Suns,

as painful as it was to see the spurs lose, especially with our big three intact--there was no question the suns were the better team...

I think this loss will be less painful because there are really no questions to ask;

no head scratching

no what-if this or what-if that

no refs fucking us ---or you

just one team better than the other and it is time to remake this team

please don't bend over for the lakers----don't lose your swagger as soon as the refs fuck you over in the first two games in L.A.---AND BELIEVE ME---THEY WILL

just keep fighting and impose your will and beat them

[CarefreeAZ]

Spurstalk forum and it's fans are some of the best and most knowledgable when it comes to talking b-ball. Very impressed with the never say die attitude by the spurs, especially in the closing seconds of this game. It is nice for the Suns and quite an accomplishment for the organization to be able to finally win a series against what has been one of the best organizations over the past 11 years. True Suns fans despise anything Lakers and would love nothing better that to knock these guys off their pedastal and kick their ass. Were definitely the underdog but anything is possible.

[ploto]

Congrats to Grant Hill- one of my favorite NBA people ever.

So happy for Goran who kept working hard when everyone was doubting him.

When July 1 rolls around, I just might have to change my team to the Suns if Rasho signs in Europe. :)

[DubMcDub]

not outclassed...they just wanted it more....suns and all they represent are far from class....

Do people have any idea how ridiculous they sound when they say stuff like this? Do you have any evidence whatsoever that Suns fans as a whole are any less classy than Spurs fans, Kings fans, or 76ers fans?

[SenorSpur]

Big props to the Suns! They played with heart, intensity and desire throughout. A deep bench doesn't hurt either.

I never make it a habit of rooting for the team that beats the Spurs, but I'll be rooting for them the rest of the way. Hopefully Lopez will return and give them more size against the Fakers.

Well done to the Suns and good luck in the next round. :tu

[mr_flex]

As a lifelong Suns fan, I appreciate the props for my team and for all the classy posts in this thread (and forum). Much respect to your team, they didn't give up, even in the final minute of the 4th quarter...Suns will need that die-hard determination in the next round against the Fakers.

[slacker77]

congratulations to the suns! You guys were just unstoppable. I'm disappointed but if there's a guy i didn't mind losing to, it's steve nash and grant hill, all class. Good luck going forward and i'll be rooting hard for you guys when you meet l.a.


+1

[mytespurs]

I too want to give major props to the Suns-they were the better team in this round and deserved to win this series-sweeping the team that caused you so much pain the past few years must be sweet!

Good Luck going forward-keep striving for the ultimate! :toast:toast:king
