were cheated in 2007 playoffsPERIOD

[LkrFan]

The Sp*rs had a 5 point halftime lead. Then lead by as much as 11 in the 3rd before Nash started carving them up. Then something Horryble happened:

Suns won the battle but lost the war. They clearly were the better team det year.

Watching the Dubs dominate the NBA right now pisses me off that the pioneers of small ball were robbed of a title by cheapshot Bob and Bruce Lee Bowen. Key Suns players were suspended which ensured the Sp*rs rang.

By my count, y'all get two *s:

*1999 season had only 50 games
*2007 season - a legit title team was robbed by Horry's hipcheck.

Unbelievable. SMDH

Um, the 2002 Kings were the pioneers of the modern game. Not sure you want to go there though Arturo.

I agree, the Suns were cheated......they were forced to coached by that mental midget, Mike D'Antoni.......since they had no escape from him, the sun set on their season.

They both were like 6'9" PF/Cs. That's small ball even in today's game.

By my count, I don't give 2 shits what you think about our 5 rings, asterisk or not, they still equal 5. For a team with 14, you Laker fans sure are bitter and salty about our 5.

A team starting Shawn Marion, Amare Stoudemire, and Kurt Thomas is a smallball team. OK :lol

[Spurtacular]

The one game suspension rule for leaving the bench was well known after The Malice In The Palace. The Suns were not victims. Well done, Big Shot Bob. He proved all big shots don't have to go through the hoop. :lol

It was known after the 97 playoffs. Stern suspended Patrick Ewing, Larry Johnson, Allan Houston, and John Starks for leaving the bench in Game 5 of their series with Miami, with Ewing and Houston suspended for Game 6 and Johnson and Starks Game 7. So if the league is going to suspend the four best players from the team in the largest market for elimination games the Suns have no excuse to not know that rule was serious. :lol

Horry got screwed getting suspended two games for a hard foul. PJ Brown only got one game for throwing Charlie Ward over his shoulder and into the ground and causing five Knick suspensions.

[Clipper Nation]

Nash floppedPERIOD by his own admission. The Spurs were the better team, fair and square.

[Clipper Nation]

Also, :lol at those Suns being the pioneers of small ball. Don Nelson was playing small ball in the '80s. Phil often used small ball lineups with the Bulls.

Your takes are shit, Alberto.

And they got swept

I don’t take any of Lkrfans posts seriously, but are you actually being serious when you say stuff like this? That 2007 Cavs team was maybe the worst team I’ve ever seen in the finals. The 2007 Suns played the Spurs evenly before they shot themselves in the foot by violating a rule everyone knows about, while the Spurs were doing shit like trying unnecessary alleyoops against the Cavs and still winning by double digits every game.

[Pelicans78]

The Suns would have dominated the Cavs in a series. No debate there.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

I agree. That was rigged shit. Nash did deserve a ring and that year the Suns were better. The Suns were just one team Stern hated worse than the Spurs for some reason.

[ambchang]

Laker fans complaining about refs and the leagues.

The league literally killed Len bias to make sure the lakers get two more titles.
The league decimated the rockets and destroyed the careers of multiple people so that the lakers can get two more titles.
The league gave the lakers massive fta advantage in THREE elimination games in a decade. The lakers won all three of those games and went on to the finals.

All 11 of those laker titles have a gigantic * on it.

Looking at that play, ONLY Horry should have been suspended. He was getting ready to trap Nash on the sideline. Nash likely calls TO to stop the clock (which is what the Sp*rs needed anyway). But nooooo. Horry had to goon up the game with a hipcheck that was totally unnecessary. He should have been suspended for the rest of the season on the spot. SMH

[ECOV]

lmao still worrying about the past

[Will Hunting]

The big culprits for the Suns losing that series were Dantoni, Marion and Barbosa, in that order. Dantoni is to blame for his team not being disciplined enough to follow an existing rule (the Spurs’ bench didn’t even flinch after the hip check) and even ignoring that, he got out coached in every which way during that series. Even though the Suns traded for Kurt Thomas specifically to have a defensive answer to Tim Duncan, Dantoni valued proving the world wrong about his SSOL offense more than he valued winning, so he didn’t want to give Kurt Thomas any real minutes until after the Suns lost game 1 and home court. Marion and Barbosa meanwhile couldn’t hit the most wide open shots given to them which made it so Nash and Amare were the only way they could get any half court offense going.

The Suns had every chance in the world to win game 5. They were at home, up by 20+ with their home crowd out for blood. Despite all that pressure the Spurs kept their composure and came back with an incredible, gritty win. No excuses.

To top it all off. Nash played up that foul like one of the worst Hollywood actors (something you should know about), and IMO is the reason he got his teammates suspended. If he didn't do that, and his teammates kept their composure, who knows, maybe they could have won game 5. It's all on Nash and his teammates.
